We modern people think of miracles as the suspension of the natural order, but Jesus meant them to be the restoration of the natural order. The Bible tells us that God did not originally make the world to have disease, hunger, and death in it. Jesus has come to redeem where it is wrong and heal the world where it is broken. His miracles are not just proofs that he has power but also wonderful foretastes of what he is going to do with that power. Jesus' miracles are not just a challenge to our minds, but a promise to our hearts, that the world we all want is coming.

What the heart most wants, the mind finds reasonable, the will finds doable, and the emotions find desirable.

The goal of prayer is not just the sharing of our ideas, but also of ourselves.

Religious people find God useful. Gospel people find him beautiful.

Christmas is an invitation by God to say: Look what I've done to come near to you. Now draw near to me...I want to be a friend.

The gospel is not just the “ABCs” but the “A-to-Z” of the Christian life.

The essence of Christian obedience is not do’s and don’ts but personal allegiance to Jesus.
