Christ did not suffer so you wouldn’t suffer. He suffered so when you suffer you will become like Him.

The issue on which everything hangs is not whether you like His teaching but if He ‪rose from the dead.

Fear, logic, and tradition are not going to make you live a good life when no one is looking.

Secularism and Religion are both all about your personal performance. The Gospel is the performance of another applied to you.

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

When pain and suffering come upon us, we finally see not only that we are not in control of our lives but that we never were.

The Gospel is good news not good advice. Advice = what we should do. News = report of what was done for us.
