Jesus promised that trials and hardships would come when we follow him faithfully. We need friends that constantly remind us that Jesus is worth it all.
True conversion doesn’t hinge on a prayer, but the life-changing discovery that God is our greatest treasure.
The suffering we experience in this life is no accident. The pains we experience in this life always serve God’s greater purposes.
If you feel like it’s hard for your life to be worship at work or at school or at home, the problem probably isn’t work, home, or school.
Sin can never lure you by offering something better than God. It can only entice you by lying to you.
God’s design and passion for his glory in the world includes your desire and pursuit for joy that lasts forever.
Christian relationships exist to keep us believing. Without Jesus speaking to us through our brothers and sisters, we won’t survive.
Our worship of God involves a multitude of emotions, but the emotion at the root of all of them — if it’s true, spiritual worship — is joy.
When we pursue our joy in God, we exalt the beauty and worth of God, not ourselves. Being satisfied in God magnifies him as our treasure.
God keeps us believing in Christ by enabling us himself to do the things which will keep us in his love.
Freedom is doing what you love to do if you love to do what you ought to do. If you want real freedom like this, then be transformed by the renewal of your mind.
God’s glory shines everywhere, but in corporate worship there is a unique exhibition of glory that we do not see any other way.
Christ rose from the dead to make Christians the most deeply joyful people in this sad, sinful world.
The constant noise in our lives can distract us from our mission. Take time alone with God to reorient your priorities.
The good news of Christ is for us, but it is not ultimately about us. If we get this wrong, we fall short of the gospel’s ultimate aim.
