Tullian Tchividjian
An identity based in the one-way love of God does not take into account public opinion or, thankfully, even personal opinion.
Tullian Tchividjian
If we're not reaching the same people Jesus reached, then we're not preaching the same message Jesus preached.
Tullian Tchividjian
The way of God's grace becomes indispensable when we realize that the way of God's law is inflexible.
Tullian Tchividjian
If you feel compelled to respond every time you're criticized it reveals just how much you've built your identity on being right.
Tullian Tchividjian
As long as I am focusing on the faults of others, then I don't have to face my own.
