How can you admit that your only hope is divine grace and then throw condemnation at another sinner when you see them struggle?

There simply aren't any grand moments in life, and we surely don't live in those moments. No, we live in the utterly mundane. We exist in the bathrooms, bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways of life. This is where the character of our life is set. This is where we live the life of faith.

If you are in Christ, you've been chosen to transcend the borders of your own glory, to reach out toward a greater glory, the glory of God.

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

Standing near someone you love in a time of trouble is its own reward.

There is nothing that could be revealed about a pastor that has not already been covered by the blood of Jesus

In the family, life is brought not only to our doorstep, but into our kitchens, bedrooms, and dens. In the family, life is happening all around us, and it begs to be questioned, evaluated, interpreted, and discussed. There is no more consistent, pregnant, dynamic forum for instruction about life than the family, because that is exactly what God designed the family to be, a learning community.
