Lukewarm people don't really want to be saved from their sin; they want only to be saved from the penalty of their sin.
Trust whatever He has for you. It will be better than anything you can plan for yourself.
Has your relationship with God changed the way you live your life?
What are you doing right now that requires faith?
God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. The answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of do's and don'ts-it's falling in love with God.
The point is not to completely understand God but to worship Him. Let the very fact that you cannot know Him fully lead you to praise Him for His infiniteness and grandeur.
When we become overly concerned about our appearance, our spiritual reputation, our coolness, and our acceptance, we are living as citizens of this world rather than as ambassadors.
Non-churchgoer s tend to see Christians as takers rather than givers. When Christians sacrifice and give wildly to the poor, that is truly a light that glimmers. The Bible teaches that the church is to be that light, that sign of hope, in an increasingly dark and hopeless world.
Let us be eager to leave what is familiar for what is true.
There is nothing better than giving up everything and stepping into a passionate love relationship with God, the God of the universe who made galaxies, leaves, laughter, and me and you.
Just as you did not come to Christ on your own, neither will you remain in Christ on your own.
God has allowed hard things in your life so you can show the world that your God is great and that knowing Him brings peace and joy, even when life is hard.
Lukewarm people call 'radical' what Jesus expected of all His followers.
Why would we need to experience the Comforter if our lives are already comfortable?
