Only love for Christ has the power to incapacitate the sturdy love for self that is the bane of every sinner, and only the grace of Christ has the power to produce that love.

Our sin is what separates us from God, but it's our self righteousness that keeps us from running to Him for the grace He willingly gives to all who come.

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

Every day you preach to yourself a gospel of your loneliness, inability, and lack of resources or you faithfully preach to yourself the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

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

God never intended for us to simply be the objects of His love. We are also called to be the instruments of that love in the lives of others.

We are called by God to do theology, that is, to live our lives with a moment-by-moment consciousness of God.
