Holy Saturday. The best reminder that the silence of God doesn't equal the absence of God.
Tullian TchividjianWe often read the Bible as if it were fundamentally about us: our improvement, our life, our triumph, our victory, our faith, our holiness, our godliness.
Tullian TchividjianI've got three kids. I worry about them but the gospel freed me and freed my wife. We are not trying to make our kids think that we're super spiritual or we've got it all together. They see mom and dad being real people. What they hear dad talking about at home is not different from what they see from dad [at church]. That won't guarantee that they'll avoid the whole PK, MK thing. But we are hopefully not contributing to what normally produces that crisis, which is pretending.
Tullian TchividjianTo focus on how I'm doing more than what Christ has done is Christian narcissism
