Tullian Tchividjian
Because of Jesus the sin we cannot forget God does not remember.

My job as a pastor and theologian is to tease out the nature and the necessity of the gospel in meticulous ways, in everything I say, in everything I like. I want desperately for the church in America to rediscover the power and the beauty and the nature and the necessity of the gospel.
Tullian Tchividjian
When we imply that our works are for God and not our neighbor, we perpetuate the idea that God's love for us is dependent on what we do instead of on what Christ has done.
Tullian Tchividjian
If you uproot the idol and fail to plant the love of Christ in its place, the idol will grow back.
Tullian Tchividjian
Nothing makes me want to obey more than knowing that God unconditionally loves me and forgives me even when I disobey.
Tullian Tchividjian
The smaller you get-the smaller life makes you-the easier it is to see the grandeur of grace. While I am far more incapable than I may have initially thought, God is infinitely more capable than I ever hoped.
Tullian Tchividjian
Our deepest fear is judgment. Our deepest longing is love. The gospel of grace removes the one and provides the other.
Tullian Tchividjian
If your theological convictions are not producing a deeper love for others, then it's time to rethink some stuff.
Tullian Tchividjian
