Christianity does not set faith against thinking. It sets faith against assuming.

There seems to be a human instinct for prayer. Swiss theologian Karl Barth calls it our 'incurable God-sickness.'

The Bible’s purpose is not so much to show you how to live a good life. The Bible’s purpose is to show you how God’s grace breaks into your life against your will and saves you from the sin and brokenness otherwise you would never be able to overcome… religion is ‘if you obey, then you will be accepted’. But the Gospel is, ‘if you are absolutely accepted, and sure you’re accepted, only then will you ever begin to obey’. Those are two utterly different things. Every page of the Bible shows the difference.

If you love anything in this world more than God, you will crush that object under the weight of your expectations.

If anything becomes more fundamental than God to your happiness, meaning of life, and identity then it is an idol.

If you come from insignificance and when you die you return to insignificance, then nothing is significant now.

If you don't love the poor, you don't know what God's done for you.
