I think it's super important for the church itself to rediscover the gospel.

Christianity is not about good people getting better. If anything, it is good news for bad people coping with their failure to be good. The heart of the Christian faith is Good News, not good advice, good technique, or good behavior. Too many people have walked away from the church, not because they’re walking away from Jesus, but because the church has walked away from Jesus.

God wants every local church to be the first place people think to go when they've really messed up...not the last.

The passive righteousness of faith frees me from passing final judgment on myself.

A preacher who doesn't believe he's that bad will attract people who don't think they're that bad. And that's bad.

I became frustrated with myself for not being as sturdy and unquestioning as I knew a man in my position should be.

The biggest lie about grace that Satan wants the church to buy is the idea that it’s dangerous and therefore needs to be kept in check.
