Grace is love that seeks you out when you have nothing to give in return. Grace is love coming at you that has nothing to do with you. Grace is being loved when you are unlovable.

More quotes by Tullian Tchividjian

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 good news of the gospel [for sufferers] is not an exhortation from above to 'hang on at all costs,' or 'grin and bear it' in the midst of hardship. No, the good news is that God is hanging on to you, and in the end, when all is said and done, the power of God will triumph over every pain and loss.
Tullian Tchividjian

Tullian Tchividjian
The gospel doesn't just ignite the Christian life but it keeps Christians growing and growing every day. There's no reason to move beyond the gospel. There's only movement more into it.
Tullian Tchividjian
My daily sins require daily distribution of God's grace. In that sense, it never ceases to surprise me because I don't deserve any of it. I mean, I deserve to be locked in a cage and for God to throw away the key.
Tullian Tchividjian
There is no better story in the Old Testament, or perhaps the whole Bible, for depicting the difference between the ladder-defined life and the cross-defined life than that of the Tower of Babel.
Tullian Tchividjian
Holy Saturday. The best reminder that the silence of God doesn't equal the absence of God.
Tullian Tchividjian
When Martin Luther was asked what we contribute to our salvation, he said, Sin and resistance
Tullian Tchividjian
The way of God's grace becomes indispensable when we realize that the way of God's law is inflexible.
Tullian Tchividjian
