The Gospel does not promise you better life circumstances; it promises you a better life.

We've got at least two other streams of that are filled with good, helpful material on meditation - the Catholic stream and the Quaker stream that are not primarily based on meditating on the Scripture.

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

The purpose of Jesus's coming is to put the whole world right, to renew and restore the creation, not to escape it.

It's important to remember the Gospel is a story; not a set of bullet points.

What you treasure will ultimately require you die for it, Jesus is the only treasure that died for you.

At the root of all our disobedience are particular ways in which we continue to seek control of our lives through systems of works-righteousness. The way to progress as a Christian is to continually repent and uproot these systems the same way we become Christians, namely by the vivid depiction (and re-depiction) of Christ’s saving work for us, and the abandoning of self-trusting efforts to complete ourselves. We must go back again and again to the gospel of Christ-crucified, so that our hearts are more deeply gripped by the reality of what he did and who we are in him.
