Only the Holy Spirit can comfort a person in the depths of grief.

The grace of God sets us free from a life of perfection, performing, and pretending.

Because the church has moved away from the gospel anytime you move away from the gospel, you at the same time move toward pretense, you move toward image-keeping, you move toward the need to pretend.

I'm not sure I'll ever fully understand why some Christians get mad when we say that the ultimate hero in the Bible is not Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Paul, etc... but Jesus.

The gospel is not about a lifestyle that we live, it's about the law-fulfilling life that Christ lived.

When you don't have anything to lose, you discover something wonderful: you're free to take great risks without fear or reservation.

If people knew the REAL us, they would run. God knows, stays, and loves.
