“The God who chooses people is strong enough to accomplish all his purposes in them; the people chosen by God ought to respond not only with grateful obedience, but with unshakable trust.” (D.A. Carson)
“Never lose sight of the ultimate good that the city needs a thousand times more than it needs material prosperity. Christians care about all suffering — especially eternal suffering. That’s the greatest danger every city faces.” (@JohnPiper)
Met with @NAMB_SBC@sendrelief staff in Boston today and learned about how God is using churches to meet needs, share Jesus, and make disciples.
God worked in Boston in the past. God is still at work in this city today!
Circumstances change. Jesus does not.
“The foundation of who I am is my relationship with Jesus. And so whether it's coaching, whether it's my marriage, whether it's my three kids, decision-making, everything is filtered through my faith.” (Hubert Davis)
" 'I will be their God' (Jer 31:33). Christian, here is all you require. To make you happy, you want something that shall satisfy you, and is not this enough? This is the masterpiece of all the promises." (Charles Spurgeon)
“You have put me in this world for something, Lord,
show me what that is, and help me to work out my life-purpose. . . . I am all yours; take me, and enable me to glorify you now, in all that I say, in all that I do, and with all that I have.” (Charles Spurgeon)
“There is no greater comfort than to know that no matter how absurd and irrational circumstances may seem, God is in control and means it for good. Let's always trust in him.” (@JohnPiper)
So thankful for Dr. Stein’s influence on my theological education. Loved having him as a professor at @SBTS. His commentary on Luke is one of my favorite resources in my library.
I’m sad to hear of the passing of Robert H. Stein. I never had him for class, but he and my dad were colleagues for many years.

And He bears eternal scars
He was raised for our salvation
And His righteousness is ours.” (“Glorious Impossible” - @oakridgeboys)
Six lousy votes? I am, like so many of you, angry tonight. It’s beyond disappointing. But never forget Murph has something far more precious than a plaque: the admiration and respect of millions. The people’s champion.
