Are you struggling with sin? You don’t need more will power. You need more of Jesus.

You didnt access love, love accessed you!

Jesus didn’t care about the scandal. He cared about the scandalous.

I think people would be surprised to discover that their challenges and struggles are not too dissimilar to us, average ordinary people. We're all looking for essentially the same thing and I think that's faith and hope and love and meaning and of course satisfaction, peace, joy.

But difficult situations and wrong choices conspire to trap us in hopelessness.

I think if Jesus had one shot at fixing us, He’d tell us how much He loves us. Jesus loves us right now, just as we are. He isn’t standing aloof, yelling at us to climb out of our pits and clean ourselves up so we can be worthy of Him. He is wading waist-deep into the muck of life, weeping with the broken, rescuing the lost, and healing the sick.

We are often harsher judges than God himself.
