The gospel is this: We are more sinful and flawed in ourselves than we ever dared believe, yet at the very same time we are more loved and accepted in Jesus Christ than we ever dared hope.

I am accepted by God through the work of Jesus Christ - therefore I obey

It takes pride to be anxious – I am not wise enough to know how my life should go.

Public faith means going public with what’s in your heart, with humility and respect for others, as we speak of the truth of the gospel.

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

Love is primarily giving. It’s an action that leads to a feeling, not a feeling first.

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