The gospel announces that God doesn't relate to us based on our feats for Jesus, but Jesus' feats for us.
Tullian Tchividjian
Image
Christianity is in no way a stoic faith. It fundamentally rejects the stiff upper lip school of thought.
Tullian Tchividjian
Image
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
Image
My job is not to show my children that I'm the man, but to show them that Christ is the man.
Tullian Tchividjian
Image
Grace always runs downhill, meeting us at the bottom, not the top.
Tullian Tchividjian
Image
The emphasis of the Bible is on the work of the Redeemer, not on the work of the redeemed.
Tullian Tchividjian
Image
Sometimes God has to remind you that you're weak so that you can be set free from your self-sufficiency.

Image
The world tells us in a thousand different ways that the bigger we become, the freer we will be. The richer, the more beautiful, and the more powerful we grow, the more security, liberty, and happiness we will experience. And yet, the gospel tells us just the opposite, that the smaller we become, the freer we will be.

Image
I didn't realize that I was in a self-made prison of human approval and human acceptance. Didn't even realize it. Most of the prisons we live in we are not conscious of.

Image
Here's one way I can know that I've forgotten the gospel of grace: when your sin bothers me more than my sin.
Tullian Tchividjian
Image
Our deepest fear is judgment. Our deepest longing is love. The gospel of grace removes the one and provides the other.
Tullian Tchividjian
Image
Every time we sin in thought, word, or deed, we're essentially saying in that moment that, I don't need you God. I don't want you God. I like my way better than your way.
Tullian Tchividjian
Image
Christian growth doesn't happen by first behaving better, but by believing better--believi ng in bigger, deeper, brighter ways what Christ has already secured for sinners.

Image
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.
Tullian Tchividjian
Image
Suffering reveals to us the two things that ultimately matter: that we are weak but He is strong.
Tullian Tchividjian
Image
When we depend on anything smaller than God to provide us with the security, significance, meaning, and value that we long for, God will love us enough to take it away. Much of our anger and bitterness, therefore, is God prying open our hands and taking away something we've held onto more tightly than him.
