We do not have time to waste our lives coasting out casual, comfortable Christianity.

Some people think that if they will do certain things, they will somehow earn the favor of God, but this misses the whole point of Christianity and ironically devolves into a me-centered approach.

We desperately need each other in the daily fight to follow Christ in a world that's full of sin.

Therefore, when I look for a church, I look for the music that best fits me and the programs that best cater to me and my family. When I make plans for my life and career, it is about what works best for me and my family. When I consider the house I will live in, the car I will drive, the clothes I will wear, the way I will live, I will choose according to what is best for me. This is the version of Christianity that largely prevails in our culture. But it is not biblical Christianity.

The most glorious reason you exist is for the proclamation of the glory of God to the ends of the world. And it's more than having a nice life.

A materialistic world will not be won to Christ by a materialistic church.

Every saved person this side of heaven owes the gospel to every lost person this side of hell.
