The gospel doesn't make bad people good, it makes dead people alive.
Tullian Tchividjian
As long as I am focusing on the faults of others, then I don't have to face my own.

Tullian Tchividjian
Unfortunately, some Christians are guilty of throwing out an equivalent sentiment when they play the God is sovereign card as a way to trump every evil that comes your way.

Tullian Tchividjian
Rest assured: Before God, the righteousness of Christ is all we need before God, the righteousness of Christ is all we have.
Tullian Tchividjian
I think there is tribalism is a big deal inside of the church, that the church thinks of themselves as a tribe and not a mission.
Tullian Tchividjian
Christianity is not Jesus is our example. Christianity is Jesus is our substitute.
Tullian Tchividjian
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.
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
