Responsibility is good for your soul

Jesus sees our sin more clearly than anyone, yet He loves us more than anyone.

Our righteousness doesn't depend on our present performance but on Jesus' finished performance.

Be the same person privately, publically and personally.

Don't allow the opinions of other people to shape your concept of him. Get to know him yourself, and let the goodness of God change you from the inside out.

Sometimes our brains are our own worst enemy because grace isn't logical.

God is not in a hurry to fix us. Our behavior is not his first priority. We are his first priority. Loving us, knowing us, affirming us, protecting us. That is his top goal and his main concern.

Nowhere in the Bible, however, do we find God distinguishing between levels of sin. God doesn't share our rating system. To him, all sin is equally evil, and all sinners are equally lovable.

Notorious sinners didn’t kill Jesus. Religious people did.

What we do on Sunday absolutely doesn't matter unless it meets us on Monday. Changes us on Monday. Transforms us on Monday.

You don’t have to be good to be Jesus’s friend. You just have to be honest.

Your passion is your connection to God.

Good health is a holy blessings.

If a cavalcade of organized killing has nothing to teach us, I don’t know what does.

Sometimes letting things go is an act of far greater power than defending or hanging on.

Why should we believe in a god, that doesnt believe in us?

The nicest feeling in the world is to do a good deed anonymously-and have somebody find out.

Making the extra effort to say thanks in a genuine, personal manner goes a long way. It is pleasurable to do, and it encourages more of the same good behavior.

Science is about the process; it's not about the conclusion.

What you see is evidence of what you believe.

With anything, you have to approach from an educational, mature standpoint.
