To be a Christian is to realize that in your sin, you were separated from God's presence, and you deserved nothing but God's wrath.

Don't underestimate what God can do with ordinary people.

The gospel does not prompt you to mere reflection; the gospel requires a response. In the process of hearing Jesus, you are compelled to take an honest look at your life, your family, and your church and not just ask, 'What is he saying?' but also ask, 'What shall I do?'

Being a member of a church means realizing that we are responsible for helping the brothers and sisters around us to grow as disciples of Jesus. In the same way, they are responsible for helping us. We desperately need each other in the daily fight to follow Christ in a world that's full of sin.

If there were 1,000 ways to God we would want 1,001.

Superficial religion consists of merely believing certain truths and doing certain things....such superficial religion is rampant in the world today.

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