What would your prayers look like if you believed that the cross really was the measure of God's compassion for someone?

God calls us first... not to a platform, but to an altar!

Focusing on what we ought to do for God creates only frustration and exhaustion; focusing on what Jesus has done for us produces abundant fruit. Resting in what Jesus has done for us releases the revolutionary power of the gospel.

When something becomes so important to you that it drives your behavior and commands your emotions, you are worshipping it.

Being converted to Jesus is learning to so adore God that we would gladly renounce everything we have to follow Him.

The gospel has done its work in us when we crave God more than we crave everything else in life - more than money, romance, family, health, fame - and when seeing His kingdom advance in the lives of others gives us more joy than anything we could own. When we see Jesus as greater than anything the world can offer, we'll gladly let everything else go to possess Him.
