David Platt
God has made a way of salvation for the lost. Not a way, but the way. And this is the good news - the gospel.

David Platt
We have the audacity to look God in the face and say, 'No.'
David Platt
The very first word out of Jesus mouth in is ministry in the New Testament is clear: repent.
David Platt
We go wherever God leads whenever God moves us...because we love His glory more than we love our lives.
David Platt
The most glorious reason you exist is for the proclamation of the glory of God to the ends of the world. And it's more than having a nice life.
David Platt
Unreached peoples are unreached for a reason. They're hard, difficult, and dangerous to reach. All the easy ones are taken
David Platt
God actually delights in exalting our inability. He intentionally puts his people in situations where they come face to face with their need for him.
David Platt
And this is why Jesus came: to endure the holy wrath of God due us.
David Platt
We can so easily deceive ourselves, mistaking the presence of physical bodies in a crowd for the existence of spiritual life in a community.
David Platt
