In the Old Testament, we are continually told that our good works are not enough, that God has made a provision. This provision is pointed to at every place in the Old Testament.

There's nothing like suffering to remind us how not in control we actually are, how little power we ultimately have, and how much we ultimately need God.

Even those of us who have tasted the radical saving grace of God find it intuitively difficult not to put conditions on grace.

The law demands that we do it all; the gospel declares that Jesus paid it all.

Since Genesis 3 we have been addicted to setting our sights on something, someone, smaller than Jesus.

Death is the operative device that sets us free in Christ - when we die, we truly live.

Holy Saturday. The best reminder that the silence of God doesn't equal the absence of God.
