How the gospel changes us— New king: Christ New status: Forgiven New future: Heaven New family: Church New foundation: Bible New power: Holy Spirit New mission: Make disciples New motivation: Glory of God

Same goes for an uninvolved spouse, pastor, friend, or coworker.

“Sunday morning church is a Saturday night decision.” @deaninserra

“The gospel that saved my soul gave me a new heart—one that was knit together with Christ and knit together with my Christian brothers and sisters. It compels me to seek what is good and right for my fellow man.” @pastoremase

I can't remember who said it, but they said their one and only New Year's resolution every year was to collapse more fully into the grace of God in Jesus Christ. I've never forgotten that. Lord, let it be.

You can make excuses or you can make progress but you can't make both. @cnieuwhof

2 Christmas Reminders: 1) God came into the world for us. 2) We came into the world for God. Christmas is not just a celebration of Christ’s birth but also a commitment to Christ’s mission.

In my experience, one of the defining marks of a consistently happy person is the ability to forgive before being apologized to.

Last night my 4-year old son got stung by 3 bees. After he stopped crying, he asked if we could call the police so they could give the bees a spanking.

I will give them singleness of heart and action, so that they will always fear me, for their own good and for the good of their children. Jeremiah 32:39 A family of God-fearers—That’s what I want for Father’s Day. Start with me, God.

I am deeply grateful for the brave men and women who gave up their lives in order to protect the lives of others. From me and my family, thank you.
