The grace of God sets us free from a life of perfection, performing, and pretending.
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
Assurance never comes from looking at ourselves. It only comes as a consequence of looking to Christ.
Tullian Tchividjian
The best evangelists, the best preachers, the best teachers are desperate people.
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
The gospel announces that God doesn't relate to us based on our feats for Jesus, but Jesus' feats for us.
Tullian Tchividjian
I didn't realize that I was in a self-made prison of human approval and human acceptance. Didn't even realize it. Most of the prisons we live in we are not conscious of.
Tullian Tchividjian
God's grace is so counterintuitive and everything we do in our life is just based on conditions. You do this for me and I'll do that for you. Or if you don't do this for me, I won't do that for you. And God's grace works in a completely different direction.
Tullian Tchividjian
I enjoy receiving love from my wife. I'm ecstatic when Kim loves me and expresses affection toward me. Something in me comes alive when she does that. But I've learned this freeing truth: I don't need that love, because in Jesus, I receive all the love I need.
Tullian Tchividjian
If we read the Bible asking first, 'What would Jesus do?' instead of asking 'What has Jesus done?' we’ll miss the good news that alone can set us free.
Tullian Tchividjian
The way of God's grace becomes indispensable when we realize that the way of God's law is inflexible.
Tullian Tchividjian
God has hardwired me to thoroughly enjoy and be sharpened by good and friendly theological discussion about the gospel.
Tullian Tchividjian
Spiritual growth is marked by a growing realization of just how much grace you need.
Tullian Tchividjian
The emphasis of the Bible is on the work of the Redeemer, not on the work of the redeemed.
Tullian Tchividjian
Grace frees you to be honest about what you've always known to be true about yourself: that you're weaker & more afraid than you want to be.
Tullian Tchividjian
The desperate addict is closer to the heart of grace than the devout moralist.
Tullian Tchividjian
If you look at the gospel, it just doesn't break things apart. The gospel brings things together. One of the great demonstration of the gospel's power is reconciliation.
Tullian Tchividjian
To focus on how I'm doing more than what Christ has done is Christian narcissism
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
Sometimes God has to remind you that you're weak so that you can be set free from your self-sufficiency.
