Why do we try so hard to make Jesus cool?! He doesn’t need a makeover.

Progress stems from education, culture, freedom and equality. Without these fundamentals, mankind will flounder.

We spend so much time trying to put send to death that we don't spend enough time striving to know God deeply, trying to gaze upon the wonder of Jesus Christ and have that transform our affections to the point where our love and hope are steadfastly on Christ.

The reconciling gospel is always at the forefront of the church’s social action, because a full belly is not better than a reconciled soul.

The single most loving act we can do is share the good news of Jesus Christ, that God saves sinners.

More often than not, we want him to have fairy wings and spread fairy dust and shine like a precious little star, dispensing nothing but good times on everyone, like some kind of hybrid of Tinker Bell and Aladdin’s Genie. But the God of the Bible, this God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, is a pillar of fire and a column of smoke.

The context of the gospel message is not our benefit or our salvation; the context of the gospel is the supremacy of Christ and the glory of God.
