...,the will of God for your life is pretty straightforward: Be holy like Jesus, by the power of the Spirit, for the glory of God.

The goal of a church is not to have a bigger building or budget but to see the word of God increase and disciples multiply

Seek first the kingdom of God, and then trust that He will take care of our needs, even before we know what they are and where we're going.

If you make the goal of your life just to stay alive, you'll fail. If you make the goal of your life the kingdom, you cannot lose.

The finality of Christs redemption for us is intimately tied to the finality of his revelation to us. . . . If we say revelation is not complete, we must admit that somehow the work of redemption also remains unfinished. . . . Scripture is enough because the work of Christ is enough. They stand or fall together.

The Bible tells us to love our neighbors as ourselves. Surely part of loving in this way is trying to understand what another person wants us to understand. I may not understand perfectly and I may not agree, but if I love you I should try to know what it is you wish I could know.

The secret of the gospel is that we actually do more when we hear less about all we need to do for God and hear more about all that God has already done for us.
