My identity and my security are not in my spiritual progress. My identity and my security are in God’s acceptance of me given as a gift in Christ.

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

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

The goal of the gospel is to produce a type of people consumed with passion for God an love for others.

True religion is when you serve God to get nothing else but more of God.

Worry springs from not being convinced of a sovereign God's absolute love for you. Worry disappears when you realize that God loves you unfailingly and will let nothing interrupt His plans for your good.

A Christianity that does not have as its primary focus the deepening of passions for God is a false Christianity, no matter how zealously it seeks conversions or how forcefully it advocates righteous behavior.
