Faith is not the absence of doubt; it is continuing to follow Jesus in the midst of doubt.
J. D. GreearAt your church, the week is more important than the weekend. Empower people and send them out for the week.
J. D. GreearThings like radical generosity and audacious faith are not produced when we focus on them, but when we focus on the gospel.
J. D. GreearTrue religion is when you serve God to get nothing else but more of God. Many people use religion as a way of getting something else from God they want-blessings, rewards, even escape from judgement. This is wearisome to us, and to God. But when God is His own reward, Christianity becomes thrilling. Sacrifice becomes joy.
