The Gospel worldview equips the artist with a unique combination of optimism and realism about life.

God made you to love him supremely, but he lost you. He returned to get you back, but it took the cross to do it. He absorbed your darkness so that one day you can finally and dazzlingly become your true self and take your seat at his eternal feast.

Change won’t happen through ‘trying harder’ but only through encountering the radical grace of God.

When you forgive, that means you absorb the loss and the debt. You bear it yourself. All forgiveness, then, is costly.

One of the signs that you may not grasp the unique, radical nature of the gospel is that you are certain that you do.

Christianity is not just for the strong; it's for everyone.

Trust is accepting what God sends into your life whether you understand it or not.
