If our worship isn't visible, comprehensive and extravagant, the gospel we heard must have been tiny, empty and cheap.

Life comes from death. To the degree that I can live in the death of Jesus - to that degree I can channel God's life to others.

God is always seeking you. Every sunset. Every clear blue sky. Each ocean wave. The starry hosts of night. He blankets each new day with the invitation, ‘I am here.’

We get into captivity because of our foolishness and we are more foolish that we want to admit.

It's a big world. Don't get trapped by tiny dreams and feeble problems. Time for big prayers and bold faith.

Not going to give casual worship to a God of extravagant beauty and grace!

People say all the time 'I don't have a good testimony' because they think their story has to involve some dramatic story of change from 'bad' to 'good'. But Jesus didn't come to save people this way. Sin doesn't make us bad it makes us dead. Jesus came to save by bringing the dead to life. And that's an amazing testimony.
