Just because we don't see a reason for evil and suffering doesn't mean there's not a reason for it.

The gospel has supernatural versatility to address the particular hopes, fears, and idols of every culture and every person.

Holding a grudge against someone means you think you know what they deserve and you take it upon yourself to give it to them.

God relentlessly offers his grace to people who do not deserve it, or seek it, or even appreciate it after they have been saved by it.

The secret to freedom from enslaving patterns of sin is worship. You need worship. You need great worship. You need weeping worship. You need glorious worship. You need to sense God’s greatness and to be moved it — moved to tears and moved to laughter — moved by who God is and what he has done for you.

In every other religion the indicative flows from the imperative. Which means, ‘because I do, therefore I am... because I do this, therefore I’m a child of God.’ But only in Christianity does the imperative flow from the indicative. ‘Because I am in Christ all these things, therefore I obey.’ Exactly the opposite.

We are free to fight sin, and free to win; but we must still fight.
