The Christian life is a life of ambition and courage; our ambition is not to please ourselves but to receive God's approval, his "well done, good and faithful servant." And Christians find courage, the Apostle Paul understands, in three certainties about the resurrection: (1) we will share God's life together with other people forever, (2) we will have new bodies, and (3) Jesus will judge us. Bishop Dan Gifford, 9 June 2024.
