Don't neglect your critical faculties. Remember that God is a rational God, who has made us in His own image. God invites and expects us to explore His double revelation, in nature and Scripture, with the minds He has given us, and to go on in the development of a Christian mind to apply His marvellous revealed truth to every aspect of the modern and post-modern world.

No theology is genuinely Christian which does not arise from and focus on the cross.

To encounter Christ is to touch reality and experience transcendence. He gives us a sense of self-worth or personal significance, because He assures us of God's love for us. He sets us free from guilt because He died for us and from paralyzing fear because He reigns. He gives meaning to marriage and home, work and leisure, personhood and citizenship.

God condemned sin in Christ, so that holiness might appear in us.

It is a great comfort to know that our judge will be none other than our savior.

There is something inherently inappropriate about cherishing small ambitions for God.

The chief occupational hazard of leadership is pride.
