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.

Ultimate satisfaction is found not in making much of ourselves but in making much of God

Salvation now consists of a deep wrestling in our souls with the sinfulness of our hearts, the depth of our depravity, and the desperation of our need for his grace.

Who God is and what Christ did have huge implications for who we are personally and what we desire sexually.

Christianity does not start with an invitation we offer to Jesus, but with an invitation Jesus offers to us.

Nothing is impossible for the people of God who trust in the power of God to accomplish the will of God.

If we were left to ourselves with the task of taking the gospel to the world, we would immediately begin planning innovative strategies and plotting elaborate schemes. We would organize conventions, develop programs, and create foundations… But Jesus is so different from us. With the task of taking the gospel to the world, he wandered through the streets and byways…All He wanted was a few men who would think as He did, love as He did, see as He did, teach as He did and serve as He did. All He needed was to revolutionize the hearts of a few, and they would impact the world.
