Our suffering for the gospel is purposeful: like Jesus and Paul, we endure suffering so that souls are saved and we ourselves receive the prize of eternal glory.

Our incredible salvation in Christ enables and empowers us to be unashamed in suffering and bold in gospel witness.

The suffering that goes with faithful gospel ministry is unavoidable and must be endured if we are going to receive the unfading crown of righteousness on the last day.

The gift of salvation demands and empowers repentance, the Godward movement of the soul, through turning again and again from sin to God as he humbles our hearts and ignites our affections.

Christian service is gospel-oriented love that sets aside status and reputation, and is worked out in real life without counting the cost.

As recipients of God's over-the-top generosity in Christ, it makes sense that Christians should excel in generous giving.

Since God is our Father in Christ, he grants us the incredible privilege of prayer and shows us how.

The old man has been put to death and the believer has now been made new which results in new kingdom living - the Way of Christ.

The Word of God is an infinitely valuable treasure; therefore let us saturate ourselves in it in 2017.

If our lives are to be lived well, then we must seek one thing above all else: God's glory.
