Embedded in the larger story of redemption is a principle we must not miss: God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things in the lives of others.

. . .most people who are angry with God are angry with him for being God. They're not angry because he has failed to deliver what he promised, They're angry because he has failed to deliver what they have craved, expected or demanded.

People struggling with life in a fallen world often want explanations when what they really need is imagination.

We must not offer people a system of redemption, a set of insights and principles. We offer people a Redeemer.

The church is not a theological classroom. It is a conversion, confession, repentance, reconciliation, forgiveness and sanctification center, where flawed people place their faith in Christ, gather to know and love him better, and learn to love others as he designed.

Foolishness is more than being stupid, that deadly combination of arrogance and ignorance.
