Faith can take many different forms and expressions.

If we are serious about loving someone, we have to surrender all the desires within us to manipulate the relationship.

What we do comes out of who we believe we are.

Whether we are reading the Bible for the first time or standing in a field in Israel next to a historian and an archaeologist and a scholar, the Bible meets us where we are. That is what truth does

[The Bible] has to be interpreted. And if it isn’t interpreted, then it can’t be put into action. So if we are serious about following God, then we have to interpret the Bible. It is not possible to simply do what the Bible says. We must first make decisions about what it means at this time, in this place, for these people.

There are moments when we have to return to our roots.

For a lot of people in our world today, God has become about believing the right stuff so you don't get in trouble.
