The Gospel frees us to speak honestly about the reality of pain, confident that nothing is riding on our ability to cope with or fend off suffering.

There are a still lot of people in today's church who can easily identify the idolatry outside the church and are pretty proud of the fact that they are not like them. And yet, we are far too slow to recognize the idolatry inside the church and more painfully, the idolatry inside our hearts.

I think there is tribalism is a big deal inside of the church, that the church thinks of themselves as a tribe and not a mission.

The gospel doesn't just free me from what people think of me, but also from what I think of me.

The deepest cry of the human heart is to be loved without condition, no matter what. The gospel of grace announces that you are.

The people who tend to be the most gracious are those who know how badly they need grace

God is inviting you today to appropriately grieve your pains and losses and to acknowledge the world is seriously broken.
