Is it possible to not sin? What if we flipped that question on its side and asked it like this: Is it possible to love?

To be made perfect in love means growing in the love of God for other people.

Confession doesn’t begin with naming our sins. It begins with claiming the truth that we are sinners.

I’m beginning to think our biggest problem is the way we deceive ourselves about sin.

Perhaps the biggest misconception we have is that our relationship with God will determine our relationships with other people. It’s just the opposite. If you want to know what kind of fellowship I have with God, examine my relationships with other people.

That Jesus was raised from the dead can never be proved, only believed.

It is the empty tomb which finally fulfills this psalm, granting us joy in his presence and eternal pleasures at his right hand where Jesus Christ is seated in glory.

Fill us with your Spirit that we might be your ambassadors in all places.

Send your Holy Spirit that my life may always be oriented around the beauty of who you are.

Though you were abandoned to suffer the worst humanity conceived of, you offered me your best gift—eternal life.
