If we truly love God, we will express it by loving our neighbors, and when we truly love our neighbors, it expresses our love for God.

Love always requires tangible expression. It needs hands and feet.

If we are not personally engaged in God's great mission in the world, then we have missed the very thing he created us to do. We are like birds meant to fly but living in a cage; fish meant to swim but floundering on the beach. It makes sense when you think about it. If the Author of the universe created us to play a key role in his unfolding drama but we have failed to find our place in that story, then of course we would feel incomplete.

The beautiful simplicity of our faith is that it distills down to the exact same bottom line for both the brilliant theologian and the five-year-old child: love God and love each other - period.

Don't fail to do something just because you can't do everything

Can you imagine the impact on our own culture if American Christians began using their riches as if they belonged to God?

The meaning, purpose, and significance of our lives are found only by aligning our lives with God's purposes, in lives committed to following Jesus Christ.
