I don't think we grasp at all how much fun the age to come is going to be, and how glorious it will be to search Him out and know Him more. The joy of eternal life, the unfolding of the knowledge of God, is our portion from the new birth through today, into the endless ages. -David Sliker

"At the end of the day, global missions is about the worship of this spectacular Jesus." -David Mathis

Nothing will ever surpass the abasement and humiliation that Jesus voluntarily chose. In it he plainly said "God is a servant!" (Phil 2:5-11) -Joshua Hawkins

“We need never shout across the spaces to an absent God. He is nearer than our own soul, closer than our most secret thoughts.” – A.W. Tozer

God’s revelation to and interaction with all of creation is expressed in His Son. God will go to piercing depths to clarify Himself. The eternal Son became Jesus of Nazareth and what the Father had always so enjoyed, now men and women could enjoy also. -Allen Hood

If Jesus had not offered Himself on the cross, the sacrifices of the Old Testament would have done nothing for the Jews. -Mike Bickle

The only true God was satisfied completely with the sacrifice of Jesus. We must not try to earn His favor; we have it forever! - Mike Bickle

Measure God's love not by how much you "feel it", but by how much of Himself He has given you to know and enjoy. The goal is Him, not you. -Joshua Hawkins

I'm teaching at the garage on Jesus's reputation on Friday Nov 9th for any interested parties...

God wanted the people to confess not only their own iniquity, but also the iniquity of their fathers. Leviticus 26:40. Why? He was addressing generational pride. Eastern cultures highly honor ancestors, to the point of dignifying their iniquities. True repentance recognizes that I have inherited sinful ways from my fathers and I need to be redeemed from them. -Bob Sorge

We will never understand grace if we do not understand the depth of our continual rebellion against God. -Mike Bickle
Saturday, October 27, 2012
Justification - I have been saved. Sanctification - I am being saved. Glorification - I will be saved. -Mike Bickle
Friday, October 26, 2012
The day we are born again we are as secure in God’s courts as we will be 1,000,000 years into the resurrection. -Miker Bickle

The greatest gift you give your wife Is loving God above her life. -John Piper
Wednesday, October 24, 2012
Eager longing for the second coming of Jesus is one evidence of God's grace operating in the life of a believer (Titus 2:11-13). -Joshua Hawkins

First He trains you, then He sets you, Psalm 18:33. If you have not yet been set, perhaps He is not yet finished with your training. -Bob Sorge

"If we are 'unsettled' by the story of Hosea, we haven't gotten up close enough to the Cross. The Cross's Love is appalling." -Dana Candler
Sunday, October 21, 2012
"When we see the Cross in truth, we can only respond; Oh Love, what have You done?!" -Dana Candler
Saturday, October 20, 2012
We stand confident before God because of what He did for us, not because of what we do for Him. -Mike Bickle
Friday, October 19, 2012
The issue of faith is that it places supreme, singular importance on love that moves the heart of none but Christ alone. -David Sliker

"As long as we think we own anything, that thing owns us. As soon as we know that we own nothing, then God owns us." -AW Tozer

The exaltation of community over Christ has been the source of much pain for many. Our fellowship is bound together by adoration of the Son. -Dalton Thomas
Tuesday, October 16, 2012
God is a cheerful giver, 2 Corinthians 9:7. He was not grudging nor under pressure when He gave us Jesus, but gave Him with a cheerful heart. Imagine giving your Son to the cross cheerfully! Above all else, God wants our giving to be cheerful. -Bob Sorge

The gospel in full is: who Jesus is, what He has done, and what He will do in the days to come. He is our story, the future of our world. -David Sliker
Sunday, October 14, 2012
To say that martyrdom is the glorious destiny of the church is not to exalt death over life but to exalt Jesus over everything. -Dave Horsman
Saturday, October 13, 2012
Who you choose to run with determines what you will run towards. -David Sliker
Friday, October 12, 2012
The Bible's good news is not mostly "God loves you" but rather "Christ is unspeakably glorious". The gospel is about Jesus. (2 Cor 4:4-6) -Joshua Hawkins
Thursday, October 11, 2012
Get oil. It’s better to be on fire for God when no one is looking than to be a man who has a reputation that you’re alive but really dead. -Brian Kim

Abortion is insanity. To cope with the fact of abortion's insanity, one must play word games with the mind and disconnect the heart to perform the act. If you dehumanize babies, ignore scientific facts, discard destiny, genetics, and legacy, avoid all theology and judgment, abortion is doable. The act of abortion is atheistic in nature, denying every God-given impulse to nurture and protect the precious being He blesses us with. Abortion and homosexuality are both very grave and purposeful violations of, and rebellion against, Divine design and intent. -David Sliker

"Jesus Christ is intimately familiar with you, not from writing a manual of human design, but by joining Himself with you forever" -Allen Hood
Monday, October 08, 2012
The Pharisees' leaven Jesus warned the disciples about was just a tiny fraction of the whole. Most of what they taught was right. Matthew 16:12 When a teacher has serious error, it acts like yeast, infecting the whole. Beware of any teacher who holds to a serious error. -Bob Sorge
Sunday, October 07, 2012
The idea that theological disagreement should be ignored in favor of "just loving Jesus" stands in total opposition to NT thought. (Jude 3) -Stephen Venable
Saturday, October 06, 2012
Some say it is costly to follow Christ. The truth is that the cost of not following Christ is immeasurably higher. -Mike Bickle
Friday, October 05, 2012
Cynicism and love are incompatible, as the former believes and fixates on that which is broken, while the latter hopes and believes all things. Cynicism draws attention to our cleverness and perceptivity, while love tenderly covers a multitude of sins. -Dave Sliker

God calls the weak, makes them weaker, and fills them with life and power. Maturity does not decrease dependence, but is the result of it. -Paul Washer
Wednesday, October 03, 2012
If fasting does nothing more than cause you to face your weakness, bow low and remember that you are dust then it was wildly successful. -Stephen Venable
Tuesday, October 02, 2012
Scripture clearly joins humility and fasting. Should we fast regularly? Well, do we struggle with pride and selfishness regularly? Yes and yes. -Stephen Venable
Monday, October 01, 2012
Two items that should be on your to-do list: 1. Getting clarity on the divinity of Jesus; 2. Getting clarity on the humanity of Jesus. -David Sliker
