When my thirst for joy is satisfied by Christ, sin becomes unattractive.

The repentant man rightfully loses trust in himself. He recognizes his self-dependence as the source of his problems, not the solution.

You are made for a person and a place. Jesus is the person. Heaven is the place.

Give cheerfully. If we're not cheerful, the problem is our heart, and the solution is redirecting our heart, not withholding our giving.

If you're considering going into student debt, I encourage you to seek the Lord's will through the reading and study of His Word, prayer, and the wise counsel of others before you make the decision to take out a loan.

Give voluntarily. When we catch a vision of God's grace, we will give beyond our duty.

Any concept of grace that makes us feel more comfortable sinning is not biblical grace. God's grace never encourages us to live in sin, on the contrary, it empowers us to say no to sin and yes to truth.
