Foolishness is more than being stupid, that deadly combination of arrogance and ignorance.

The church is not a theological classroom. It is a conversion, confession, repentance, reconciliation, forgiveness and sanctification center, where flawed people place their faith in Christ, gather to know and love him better, and learn to love others as he designed.

You cannot divide human beings into those who worship and those who don't. Everybody worships; it's just a matter of what, or whom, we serve.

Do you require yourself to remember? In order to live as you can and should, you first must remember who you are and what you’ve been given.

When Christ is my hope, he becomes the one thing in which I have confidence. I act on his wisdom and bank on his grace. I trust his promises and I rely on his presence. And I pursue all the good things that he has promised me simply because I trust him. So, I am not manipulating, controlling, or threatening my way through life to get what I want, because I have found what I want in Christ. He is my hope.

The Bible says that our core problem, the fundamental reason we do what we do, is sin.

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