We can pray boldly and persistently because we have a good Father who gives what is best to His children.

Prayer is the needy child talking with His Father. Jesus shows us what it looks like to approach God as our Father and shape our prayers according to His Fatherly care.

Jesus calls us to focus the one thing that is best before we pursue the many things that are good.

Love for God for expresses itself in love for your neighbor. But when we start trying to pursue a life of love, we are confronted with our own tendencies to justify ourselves and the need to rest in the work of Another.

Jesus' true glory is revealed both on the mountain and in the valley.

Jesus' road to victory runs through suffering. He will bear the crown, but He must first endure the cross. Any who would follow Him must embrace the same.

When Jesus empowers the mission, we can go humbly and confidently.

Not only is Jesus more powerful than the evil forces at work in the world, but He has also come to deal with them decisively.

True faith receives the Gospel, perseveres, and bears fruit.

If you have true faith. you will see the greatness of your sin and you will see that Jesus is even greater.
