More quotes by Tullian Tchividjian
The truth, whether we admit it or not, is that grace scares us to death. It scares us primarily because it wrestles control and manageability out of our hands - introducing chaos and freedom.
Tullian Tchividjian
Thankfully, while our self-righteousness reaches far, God's grace reaches farther.

Legalism says God will love us if we change. The gospel says God will change us because He loves us.
Tullian Tchividjian
The ironic thing about legalism is that it not only doesn't make people work harder, it makes them give up. Moralism doesn't produce morality rather, it produces immorality.

Grace always runs downhill, meeting us at the bottom, not the top.
Tullian Tchividjian
My job is not to show my children that I'm the man, but to show them that Christ is the man.

We must reacquaint ourselves with the biblical weight of the problem that we less-than-perfect human beings contend with in the face of a holy and righteous God.
Tullian Tchividjian
I was spending way too much time thinking about me and what I needed to do, and far too little time thinking about Jesus and what he had already done for me.
Tullian Tchividjian
Contrary to popular assumptions, the Bible is not a record of the blessed good, but rather the blessed bad. Thats not a typo. The Bible is a record of the blessed bad. The Bible is not a witness to the best people making it up to God its a witness to God making it down to the worst people.

We are not responsible for finding the right formula to combat or unlock our suffering.
Tullian Tchividjian
Grace could not have done it’s curing work if the law had not first done its crushing work.
Tullian Tchividjian
When it comes to understanding and appreciating grace, our biggest problem is our so-called goodness...not our self-perceived badness.
Tullian Tchividjian
Because Jesus was someone, you’re free to be no one.
Tullian Tchividjian
I was a surfer so I hung out with people who were surfers and made fun of people who weren't surfers and I listened to surf music and made fun of people who didn't listen to surfer music.
Tullian Tchividjian
God's grace is so counterintuitive and everything we do in our life is just based on conditions. You do this for me and I'll do that for you. Or if you don't do this for me, I won't do that for you. And God's grace works in a completely different direction.
Tullian Tchividjian
My struggle isn't believing my performance can earn God's favor my struggle is believing my performance can keep God's favor
Tullian Tchividjian
What kind of person should you be to someone who has fallen? The kind of person you will run to when you fall.
Tullian Tchividjian
The biggest lie about grace that Satan wants the church to buy is the idea that it’s dangerous and therefore needs to be kept in check.
