The Only Way

Love God Above All Else

"We love God." Anyone who goes to church would have no problem confessing that. "I love God more than anything else." Now that's a different conversation. We have been blessed with so many things to love and care about that we can get distracted and find ourselves replacing God with other gods. How do we combat this? We stare deeply into the work of God, who showed the importance that he placed on our salvation. We love God above all else because he first loved us.

Keep the Faith

Sometimes our God has to say hard things to us. He doesn't do it to hurt us or to make us sad. He does so to remind us of our spiritual need for him. He says the hard thing so that he might say the beautiful thing: the good news of the gospel.

Jesus Leads Us

Our God leads us. He leads us through the Spirit. He leads us by his Word. But he doesn't stop there. God leads us through people he has established to do the difficult work of leading. By doing that work, leaders serve those they lead while they serve their Savior.

God Loves Sinners

Paul doesn't call himself the worst to speak hyperbolically. Instead, he teaches us to know our sin better than we know anyone else's. The more I understand my sin, the more I understand my Savior's love.

Our God Is Triune

It's fun to learn how things work. Sometimes it feels extremely important to know how certain things function. However, when we start contemplating the Trinity, we have to pump the brakes. I don't want a God who is supposedly beyond me to be able to be perfectly understood and explained by me.
