Because of Jesus the sin we cannot forget God does not remember.
Tullian Tchividjian
Our minds are affected by sin. Our hearts are affected by sin. Our wills are affected by sin. Our bodies are affected by sin.

Tullian Tchividjian
Because Jesus was strong for me, I am free to be weak because Jesus won for me, I am free to lose because Jesus was someone, I am free to be no one because Jesus was extraordinary, I am free to be ordinary because Jesus succeeded for me, I am free to fail.

Tullian Tchividjian
Before we can even begin to grapple with the frustrations and tragedies of life in this world, we must do away with our faithless morality of payback and reward.
Tullian Tchividjian
Remember on your best day that Jesus had to die for you. Remember on your worst day that he did.
Tullian Tchividjian
Our assurance is anchored in the love and grace of God expressed in the glorious exchange: our sin for His righteousness.
Tullian Tchividjian
God has hardwired me to thoroughly enjoy and be sharpened by good and friendly theological discussion about the gospel.
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 best evangelists, the best preachers, the best teachers are desperate people.
Tullian Tchividjian
Nothing makes me want to obey more than knowing that God unconditionally loves me and forgives me even when I disobey.
Tullian Tchividjian
