The gospel is for the defeated, not the dominant.

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

To be Biblically balanced is to let our theology and preaching be proportioned by the Bible's radically disproportionate focus on God's saving love for sinners seen and accomplished in the crucified and risen Christ.

The gospel frees you from the pressure of having to fix people: your worth is located in Christ, not in their transformation.

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.

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.

Because Jesus was someone, you’re free to be no one.
