If you are trying to live a life in accordance with the Bible, the concept and call to justice are inescapable. We do justice when we give all human beings their due as creations of God.

If you come from insignificance and when you die you return to insignificance, then nothing is significant now.

Grace is humbling and restorative. It pulls you down because Christ had to die for you, but also lifts you up because he wanted to die for you.
Jesus warns people far more often about greed than about sex, yet almost no one thinks they are guilty of it.
If you want God's grace, all you need is need, all you need is nothing.

The early church was strikingly different from the culture around it in this way - the pagan society was stingy with its money and promiscuous with its body.

Two things we want so desperately, glory and relationship, can coexist only in God.
