More quotes by Tullian Tchividjian
We are not responsible for finding the right formula to combat or unlock our suffering.
Tullian Tchividjian
The way of God's grace becomes indispensable when we realize that the way of God's law is inflexible.
Tullian Tchividjian
Whether it's a Christian or a non-Christian, there's nothing like suffering to show us how small, needy, and not in control we are. Suffering has a way of sobering us up to the realization that we can't make it on our own, that we need help, that we're broken.
Tullian Tchividjian
Our deepest fear is judgment. Our deepest longing is love. The gospel of grace removes the one and provides the other.
Tullian Tchividjian
The good news of suffering is that it brings us to the end of ourselves - a purpose it has certainly served in my life. It brings us to the place of honesty, which is the place of desperation, which is the place of faith, which is the place of freedom.
Tullian Tchividjian
Grace loves without reference to what may or may not happen-which is precisely why such incredible things do happen!
Tullian Tchividjian
The passive righteousness of faith frees me from passing final judgment on myself.
Tullian Tchividjian
Legalism says God will love us if we change. The gospel says God will change us because He loves us.
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
The gospel doesn't make bad people good, it makes dead people alive.
Tullian Tchividjian
God's grace meets us in messy places because messy places are all that there are.
Tullian Tchividjian
Thankfully, while our self-righteousness reaches far, God's grace reaches farther.
Tullian Tchividjian
The gospel doesn't just free me from what people think of me, but also from what I think of me.
Tullian Tchividjian
There are a still lot of people in today's church who can easily identify the idolatry outside the church and are pretty proud of the fact that they are not like them. And yet, we are far too slow to recognize the idolatry inside the church and more painfully, the idolatry inside our hearts.
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.
Tullian Tchividjian
I never had an intellectual struggle with the Bible, with the gospel, with the claims of Christ.
Tullian Tchividjian
Walking with God doesn't lead to God's favor God's favor leads to walking with God.
Tullian Tchividjian
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.
Tullian Tchividjian
My lifestyle got so disruptive to my family that my parents had no choice but to say, You can't live here any longer if you're going to live this way. So, I was thrilled about it - thrilled!
Tullian Tchividjian
I think it's super important for the church itself to rediscover the gospel.
