christian religion sacred
I don't see life divided into public and private, secular and sacred. It's all an open place of service before our God.
christian religion church
Wouldn't you like to contribute to an event that is part of Christ's own prediction, "I will build my church"?
christian believe easy
Not every Christian finds it easy to believe.
christian religion way
God has not only created each of us as distinct individuals, He also uses us in significant ways.
christian looks ends
More often than not, when something looks like it's the absolute end, it is really the beginning.
christian believe enemy
The longer I live the more I believe that the greatest enemy of a victorious Christian life is passivity.
christian running effort
Our great tendency in this age is to increase our speed, to run faster, even in the Christian life. In the process our walk with God stays shallow, and our tank runs low on fumes. Intimacy offers a full tank of fuel that can only be found by pulling up closer to God, which requires taking necessary time and going to the effort to make that happen.
christian worry characteristics
Worry is characteristic of the heathen, not the Christian.
christian growth tests
The best tests of my Christian growth occur in the mainstream of life, not in the quietness of my study
christian profound religion
There is no counsel like God's counsel. No comfort like His comfort. No wisdom more profound than the wisdom of the Scriptures.
christian jesus idols
It's easy to get attached to idols, good things inappropriately adored. But when you have Jesus in the centre of a room, everything else only junks up the decor.
christian religious teaching
Just as bank tellers need a thorough knowledge of legitimate currency in order to spot counterfeit bills, so Christians need a thorough knowledge of the Bible in order to spot bogus religious teachings. How grounded are you in the Scriptures? How deep are your theological roots? How capable are you of detecting false teachings?
christian anxiety focus
When Christ becomes our central focus, contentment replaces our anxiety as well as our fears and insecurities.
christian expectations people
People are far more important than rigid rules and demanding expectations.
