When the world encounters a Christian, there will be conflict, guilt, resentment and persecution. Jesus said so.

Peacemaking is all about following Jesus, His person, work, message, and manner. It is to live out the gospel.

A primary focus of the Christian life is what’s going on in the heart. At the heart of the matter is the matter of the heart.

The heart cry of the Reformation was justification by faith alone, in Christ alone, by grace alone, for God’s glory alone. All of this revealed by Scripture alone.

To show mercy to those in need is to demonstrate the heart of God. Mercy is what we have received, mercy is what we are called to give.

To those whose greatest passion in life is to please God; God promises the greatest possible satisfaction.

Putting yourself second, and trusting God to take care of you is to walk the path of meekness.

We're called to cultivate a tender heart; to mourn, but not be morose, to be serious, but not sullen, to be sober-minded, but not cold hearted.

True spirituality begins with a deep understanding of just how God dependent I am. God isn’t just a crutch, He’s everything I need.
