Scared and Called | Broken

The Great Commission begins with the Great Announcement, and the power to go far and do much in the Great Commission comes from confidence in the Great Announcement. Go.  But know that you don’t go alone.  There will never be a time when He won’t be with you.

Unexpected Heroes | Broken

At the end of the day, the cross and the hope of the final judgment of Christ tells me this:  Every sin will either be paid for in hell or by Jesus.  Justice will be served. 

God’s Unusual Ways | Broken

Salvation comes not by strength but by a gift given to those weak enough to receive it.  And the same with God’s power: It comes, not through extraordinary talent, but by simply yielding yourself in weakness and faith to the Spirit of God. 

Excuses Won’t Excuse Us | Broken

See, God is not merely a God who feels emotion; He acts.  Specifically, God is a God who saves.  He does so, not only for our rescuing, but for the glory of His name.  I like how Tim Keller put it:  "Jesus is the only God who, if you find Him, will satisfy you; and if you fail Him, will forgive you; and if you run from Him, will pursue you." But you have a choice to make.  Will it be the God who saves or a false god who enslaves?

Meant for more | Everything We Need

Christianity never starts with, “Do.”  It says, first, you have to receive something before you can do. A lot of people think Christianity starts with doing: “Clean up your life. Get self-control. Be perseverant. Become loving.”  No. Peter does not say, “First, you do.”  He says, “First, you must receive something. If you are not growing in these ways, you have forgotten the gospel.”

Spiritual Supplements | Everything We Need

Spiritual disciplines do not merit justification. However, spiritual disciplines do facilitate sanctification and discipleship.  You have to do something to become like Christ and experience the abundant life He so willingly offers. It starts with turning away from your sin and asking Christ to become not just your forgiver, but your decision maker.

Escaping Sin | Everything We Need

If there is a lack in intimacy, you have given opportunity to the devil.  Seek the relationship.  Christ pursues you; pursue Him.

Do You Know What You Have? | Everything We Need

We have everything we need to grow spiritually.  We have to know what Christ has promised, what we are called to, and what He can and will do.
