It is our confidence in the sovereign grace of God that gives us any hope of success in missions.

Perhaps God brought you into this mess so that he can bring you out of it for his glory.

Grace does not lead us to overlook obedience. Grace compels and empowers us for obedience.

Jesus didn’t do it all. Jesus didn’t meet every need. He left people waiting in line to be healed. He left one town to preach to another. He hid away to pray. He got tired. He never interacted with the vast majority of people on the planet. He spent thirty years in training and only three years in ministry. He did not try to do it all. And yet, he did everything God asked him to do.

It's true that every road leads to God. But only one way leads to a pleasant encounter with Him.

The richest treasure God has for you are the people in your life. Give thanks and don't take them for granted.

For Jesus, Scripture is powerful, decisive, and authoritative because it is nothing less than the voice of God.
