Because creation was made in the image of a God who is equally one and many, the human race will finally be reunited and our racial and cultural diversity will remain intact in the renewed world. The human race finally lives together in peace and interdependence. Glory to God in the highest goes with peace on earth.

Marriage does not so much bring you into confrontation with your spouse as confront you with yourself.

Fear-based repentance makes us hate ourselves. Joy-based repentance makes us hate the sin.

Our Christian hope is that we are going to live with Christ in a new earth, where there is not only no more death, but where life is what it was always meant to be.

Through the person and work of Jesus Christ, God fully accomplishes salvation for us, rescuing us from judgment for sin into fellowship with him, and then restores the creation in which we can enjoy our new life together with him forever.

Without immersion in God's words, our prayers may not be merely limited and shallow but also untethered from reality.
