[if] the grace of God is rejected... [then] the result is slavery...the wretched bondage by which man undertakes the impossible task of establishing his own righteousness as a ground of acceptance with God. -J. Gresham Machen

Joshua 21:45
Not one word of all the good promises that the LORD had made to the house of Israel had failed; all came to pass.

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

When you live for pleasure, it��s only a matter of time before you long for meaning. When you live for meaning, somehow, it never seems meaningful enough. When you live for God, all your heart's longings are satisfied.

#Discipleship is the journey of millions of tiny steps.

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

Hardship is what we need to grow our love. This is also why we need commitment.

"Outside of Jesus, dead is dead. Because we believe in the goodness of God, we are broken by its absence." -Paul E. Miller, A Loving Life

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

What matters is not whether we succeed or fail, but whether we gave God all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength.

The world says, "Go big or go home." Bible says, "Go big and go home." I want to live this one life all for Jesus and then go home.

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

There is no substitute for personal time in God's Word. Bible knowledge, good theology, Christian books, and even sermons are not a replacement for your time in the Word.

#Christmas is where the greatest story intersects with our hopeless stories and gives it a “happily ever after.”

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

@BenjaminVrbicek @TonyReinke Ahh, yes. These words sound all too familiar. I wish I could see the comments on that paper again.

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

You cannot serve both God and ministry. For you will hate one and love the other, or you will be devoted to one and despise the other. Serve God through ministry, not serve God and ministry. #ministry

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

Read lots of the #Bible prayerfully in order to #pray more biblically.

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

The most powerful way to teach #children about their #dignity is to treat them with #respect.

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

The only way we'll reach the world is by pouring our efforts into back into people through #discipleship, not programs & events.

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

Discipline can lead to life, but it also can lead to death. The difference is found in the heart.

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

Surrender it all. Every morning. Every evening. Every moment. Jesus, you are my everything.

[Joel Yoon @joelyoon]

Every time you yell at your children, you beat down their self-worth. #parenting
