Sin makes us moral quadriplegics.

Becaise I love God, I want to handle his truth with accuracy, clarity, and specificity. I want to build bridges of understanding from the wisdom of the Word to the details of people's lives. And because I love people, I will not be satisfied with lobbing grenades of general truth at them. Rather, through good questions, committed listening, and careful interpretation, I will enter their world with the understanding necessary to bring Christ's help to where it is really needed.

True restoration takes patience, subtlety, skill, and grace.

God's grace doesn't always come in comfortable forms. But it's still grace, and it's still evidence that He loves us.

The fatal flaw of human wisdom is that it promises that you can change your relationships without needing to change yourself.

Sin is powerful, but not as powerful as the liberating power of grace.
