Find the things that stir your affections for Christ and saturate your life in them. Find the things that rob you of that affection and walk away from them. That's the Christian life as easy as I can explain it for you.

He can heal me. I believe He will. I believe I'm going to be an old surely Baptist preacher. And even if He doesn't...that's the thing: I've read Philippians 1. I know what Paul says. I'm here let's work, if I go home? That's better. I understand that.

When God saves you, he doesn’t do it because you gave him permission. He did it because he’s God.

Because a God who is ultimately most focused on his own glory will be about the business of restoring us, who are all broken images of him. His glory demands it. So we should be thankful for a self-sufficient God whose self-regard is glorious.

Trying to make the Gospel relevant is like trying to make water wet.

I don't believe in the end that God gave me cancer, but He certainly could have stopped it and didn't.

If you want to grow in true wisdom, grow in a knowledge of the God of the Bible.
