More quotes by Tullian Tchividjian
The law is God's first word the gospel is God's final word.

Tullian Tchividjian
The gospel is not about a lifestyle that we live, it's about the law-fulfilling life that Christ lived.
Tullian Tchividjian
To focus on how I'm doing more than what Christ has done is Christian narcissism
Tullian Tchividjian
Because Jesus was someone, you’re free to be no one.
Tullian Tchividjian
Your pain could be God prying open your life and heart to remove a gift of His that you've been on to more dearly than Him.
Tullian Tchividjian
Self-righteousness is the fruit of a low view of God's law and a lite view of your own sin.
Tullian Tchividjian
God loves broken people because broken people are all that there are.
Tullian Tchividjian
Between writing, traveling, speaking, preaching, and doing my best to be a good husband to my wife and my three kids, that's about as much as one man or at least this man can do.
Tullian Tchividjian
The gospel frees you from the pressure of having to fix people: your worth is located in Christ, not in their transformation.
