If your theological convictions are not actively making you more gracious, humble, and repentant than your beliefs are not being shaped by Jesus they’re motivated by a desire to be argumentatively “right.”

If you are called to preach the word of God, you are called to study the word of God.

Living with eternity in view means living with a tent mentality. This uncomfortable place is not our final home.

In the church, we shouldn’t think in terms of importance but of calling & service. Everyone has a role & the church needs everyone to fulfill his or her role. We complement & complete each other.

We must be passionate in worship. We must have a hunger and thirst for righteousness. We must love souls. This zeal must eat us up. It must dominate our thoughts, plans, dreams, and visions.

If we hoard our life and focus on pleasure, then at death we will lose everything. But if we spend our life for God’s kingdom, we will enter eternal life. (See John 12:24-25.)

Taking and passing courses on basic logic and critical thinking should be mandatory for a highschool degree.

Churches need to double down on what an algorithm can’t provide: sustainable community, interpersonal discipleship, and a life-giving mission bigger than a single individual.

Failure to love your neighbor always begins with a failure to love God more than anything else. When you don’t love God as you should, you insert yourself in his position in your heart and life becomes all about you.

Don't believe everything you feel. Our emotions are sometimes the greatest liars we know. Preach the truth to your emotions and the truth will begin to change your emotions by the power of the Spirit.
