We desperately need to explore how much of our understanding of the gospel is American and how much is biblical.

In a world where everything revolves around yourself-protec t yourself, promote yourself, comfort yourself, and take care of yourself-Jesus says, 'Crucify yourself. Put aside all self-preservati on in order to live for God's glorification, no matter what that means for you in the culture around you.'

David Platt
Image
Radical obedience to Christ is not easy... It's not comfort, not health, not wealth, and not prosperity in this world. Radical obedience to Christ risks losing all these things. But in the end, such risk finds its reward in Christ. And he is more than enough for us.
David Platt
Image
The dangerous assumption we unknowingly accept in the American dream is that our greatest asset is our own ability.
David Platt
Image
To be a Christian is to be loved by God, pursued by God, and found by God.
David Platt
Image
We have nothing to fear, because God is sovereign.
David Platt
Image
God involves us in his missions not because He needs us, but because He loves us. And in His mercy He has invited us to be involved in His sovereign design for the spread of the gospel to the ends of the earth.
David Platt
Image
We assume that our race simply deserves heaven that God owes heaven to us unless we do something really bad to warrant otherwise.
David Platt
Image
Everything in all creation responds in obedience to the Creator... until we get to you and me. We have the audacity to look God in the face and say, No.
David Platt
Image
This is the reality about humanity. We are each born with an evil, God-hating heart. Genesis 8: 21 says that every inclination of man's heart is evil from childhood, and Jesus' words in Luke 11: 13 assume that we know we are evil.
