Thankfully, while our self-righteousness reaches far, God's grace reaches farther.

I didn't realize that I was in a self-made prison of human approval and human acceptance. Didn't even realize it. Most of the prisons we live in we are not conscious of.

Self-righteousness is the fruit of a low view of God's law and a lite view of your own sin.

The emphasis of the Bible is on the work of the Redeemer, not on the work of the redeemed.

The cross [is] the ultimate statement of God's involvement in the world on this side of heaven.

There is no better story in the Old Testament, or perhaps the whole Bible, for depicting the difference between the ladder-defined life and the cross-defined life than that of the Tower of Babel.

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