In the Christian faith, God really puts suffering front and center. He doesn't get squeamish about it.

If churches around the world would grasp the revolutionary truth that Christ's transforming power always comes through sacrifice and weakness, it would dramatically alter the landscape of the global church.

The best we can hope for in this life is a knothole peek at the shining realities ahead. Yet a glimpse is enough. It's enough to convince our hearts that whatever sufferings and sorrow currently assail us aren't worthy of comparison to that which waits over the horizon.

Perspective is everything when you are experiencing the challenges of life.

The Bible isn't quick to give answers; it mainly gives the Answer.

I want to stay in the habit of 'glancing' at my problems and 'gazing' at my Lord.

God wants us to be a good example to others who are observing us.
