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.

Sometimes God has to remind you that you're weak so that you can be set free from your self-sufficiency.
Tullian Tchividjian
I never had an intellectual struggle with the Bible, with the gospel, with the claims of Christ.
Tullian Tchividjian
God wants every local church to be the first place people think to go when they've really messed up...not the last.
Tullian Tchividjian
I wish I could say that everything I do is for God’s glory but I can’t. And neither can you. What I can say is Jesus’ blood covers all my efforts to glorify myself.

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.

My struggle isn't believing my performance can earn God's favor my struggle is believing my performance can keep God's favor

I ended up dropping out of high school at 16 and getting kicked out of my home. My parents told me, sadly, that because I was so disruptive to the rest of the household, that I could no longer live under their roof.

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
Thankfully, while our self-righteousness reaches far, God's grace reaches farther.
Tullian Tchividjian
There is no better news than that the God who makes the demand for perfection also meets the demand for perfection on our behalf.
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
In those moments when I'm obsessively counting my sins against me, it is good news to remember that God has counted my sins against Christ.
Tullian Tchividjian
While our sin reaches far, God's grace reaches farther. God came after us not to strip away our freedom but to strip away our slavery to self, that we could become truly free.
Tullian Tchividjian
Long-term, gospel-motivate d obedience can only come from the grace of what Jesus has already done, not the guilt of what we must do.
Tullian Tchividjian
We often read the Bible as if it were fundamentally about us: our improvement, our life, our triumph, our victory, our faith, our holiness, our godliness.
Tullian Tchividjian
The desperate addict is closer to the heart of grace than the devout moralist.
