God did not rescue me out of the pain, He rescued me through the pain!

To focus on how I'm doing more than what Christ has done is Christian narcissism

God's acceptance of us cannot be gained by our successes nor forfeited by our failures.

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

God's grace is so counterintuitive and everything we do in our life is just based on conditions. You do this for me and I'll do that for you. Or if you don't do this for me, I won't do that for you. And God's grace works in a completely different direction.

The gospel is for the defeated, not the dominant.

Remember on your best day that Jesus had to die for you. Remember on your worst day that he did.
