If you need something in addition to God to make you happy, that is your true King.

Jesus cannot be just liked. His claims make us either kill him or crown him.

Within this Christian vision for marriage, here's what it means to fall in love. It is to look at another person and get a glimpse of the person God is creating, and to say, "I see who God is making you, and it excites me! I want to be part of that. I want to partner with you and God in the journey you are taking to his throne."

Jesus' claims are particularly unnerving, because if they are true there is no alternative but to bow the knee to him.

If God wiped out all sources of evil in the world we would no longer be here, the evil is inside us.

The resurrection of the body means that we do not merely receive a consolation for the life we have lost but a restoration of it. We not only get the bodies and lives we had but the bodies and lives we wished for but had never before received.

The Christian gospel is that I am so flawed that Jesus had to die for me, yet I am so loved and valued that Jesus was glad to die for me.
