Consider God's love for you. Now double it. Now multiply that by 900 trillion. You're still not even close.

Courage doesn't mean we're not afraid. Courage means we refuse to be mastered by fear.

Enthusiasm is contagious - so is a lack of it. Joyless Christians are a greater assault on the gospel than atheism.

Fatherhood has taught me when it's too quiet my kids are usually sinning. God the Father knows the same. Are you praying?

God didn't give Adam and Eve the right to decide what was good and evil. He gave them the right to choose between good and evil.

God doesn't desire our worship because He is egocentric. He desires it because we are.

God has a plan for you today: one designed to help get you to Heaven.

God has great plans for you today... creative and unexpected means by which He will make you a saint. He needs only your joyful submission to His plan.

God loves us too much to pretend our sin isn't there. Sin is a cancer and Christ the surgeon. True prayer signs the consent form.

Gray and overcast from my earthly perspective, but it's sunny above these storm clouds. Grace lets us see life from God's point of view.

How beautiful that after 2,000 years, no one can outdo "God is love." It's the most perfectly concise, hopeful phrase in history.

I'm at my 3 year-olds year-end concert. It's full of very off-key, mostly unfocused children, but this father is still beaming. Must be how God feels on Sunday.

Instead of loving the Trinity of God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), we tend to love a different trinity: Me, myself, and I.
