The lack of joy in your life is due to your lack of mission.

At the cross, we see the worst that sin can do, as humanity - of which each one of us is a part - crucified the Lord. But at the cross, we also see that the most that sin can do cannot thwart God's salvation.

Doing justice includes not only the righting of wrongs but generosity and social concern, especially toward the poor and vulnerable.

If your god never disagrees with you, you might just be worshipping an idealized version of yourself.

I am God and I am coming to find you.

Living is giving....If you spend your money on yourself, you are just surviving. But if you want your life to count, if you want to really live - give.

God's salvation does not come in response to a changed life. A changed life comes in response to the salvation, offered as a free gift.
