The reality behind the mask
"It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and goddesses, to remember that the dullest and most uninteresting person you talk to may one day be a creature which, if you saw it now, you would be strongly tempted to worship, or else a horror and a corruption such as you now meet, if at all, only in a nightmare."
--C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory.

Having the Gospel captivate your soul
"Being able to articulate the gospel with accuracy is one thing; having its truth captivate your soul is quite another. The gospel is not just supposed to be our ticket into heaven; it is to be an entirely new basis for how we relate to God, ourselves, and others. It is to be the source from which everything else flows."

Hope has its reasons
"The cross, by revealing the offer of God’s forgiveness through Christ, moves us to a life lived in gratitude. The resurrection, by revealing the rich provision of God's grace through Christ, moves us to respond in faith and joy."
