“A moment with Jesus changed everything.”

We need a bigger estimation of God and a smaller estimation of sin.

The common denominator is that we all need help.

Don’t cheapen Jesus’s sacrifice by trying to pay him back

Our righteousness doesn’t depend on our present performance but on Jesus’ finished performance.

It seemed too good to be true. That’s grace.

Don’t allow the opinions of other people to shape your concept of him. Get to know him yourself, and let the goodness of God change you from the inside out.

Make rules and follow rules as needed, but don’t focus on riles. Focus on faith. Focus on grace. Focus on Jesus.

If you dont love, youve lost your distinction, definition, uniqueness, and identity.

It’s interesting how people try to redefine God to their liking. They bring him down to their level so they can understand him, then they reject him because he is too much like them.

A father doesn’t say, ‘Don’t go that way.’ He says, ‘come follow me.’

Be the same person privately, publically and personally.

Jesus sees our sin more clearly than anyone, yet He loves us more than anyone.

Jesus didn’t care about the scandal. He cared about the scandalous.

Notorious sinners didn’t kill Jesus. Religious people did.

I wonder if we have a lot of sons running around saying, “I want a Dad.” But you won’t abide in anyone.

Don’t you know you are the only Jesus many people will ever see? In compromising your lifestyle, you forfeit your capacity to accurately reflect God’s image and endanger an entire generation’s understanding of Jesus.
