“ Foolishness is more than being stupid, that deadly combination of arrogance and ignorance. ”
Embedded in the larger story of redemption is a principle we must not miss: God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things in the lives of others.
~ Paul David Tripp
The church is not a theological classroom. It is a conversion, confession, repentance, reconciliation, forgiveness and sanctification center, where flawed people place their faith in Christ, gather to know and love him better, and learn to love others as he designed.
We must not offer people a system of redemption, a set of insights and principles. We offer people a Redeemer.
People struggling with life in a fallen world often want explanations when what they really need is imagination.
