When the heart no longer feels the truth of hell, the gospel passes from good news to simply news

Worship is an inward feeling and outward action that reflects the worth of God.

One way to appreciate C.S. Lewis is to see how his Christian humility shaped his life and work.

God created us with sexual passion so that there would be language to describe what it means to cleave to him in love and what it means to turn away from him to others.

It was becoming clearer and clearer that if I wanted to come to the end of my life and not say, “I’ve wasted it!” then I would need to press all the way in, and all the way up, to the ultimate purpose of God and join him in it. If my life was to have a single, all-satisfying, unifying passion, it would have to be God’s passion.

It has to do with seeing God. “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God” (Matthew 5:8).

Our deeds are not the basis of our salvation, they are the evidence of our salvation. They are not foundation, they are demonstration.
