If the gospel of Jesus Christ is not at the center of a wedding ceremony, it is likely not going to be at the center of the marriage. This would be a grave mistake, however, as marriage itself is designed to be a great reflector of that gospel.

The work of God in the cross of Christ strikes us as awe-inspiring only after we have first been awed by the glory of God.

I was used to being the smartest guy in the room, and then God dropped me in a place that was well beyond me. It was painfully awesome.

The cross of Christ is the response of God to men for belittling His name.

Without a heart transformed by the grace of Christ, we just continue to manage external and internal darkness.

Prayer does two things. It shows the complete sufficiency of God and the complete helplessness of man. It shows that God is not lacking, that He is in need of no thing, that He is infinitely and gloriously wealthy, that He can give to, He can bless and He can answer without the need of help from anyone or anything else. And it also shows that we are in desperate need of that kind of sufficiency.

There is no error, no addiction with more power than the Cross of Christ.
