“God did not instantaneously create a perfect, self-governing world. He created a world that required his action, in time, to make it good.”
― Curtis Ferrell, The Way to Discipleship: Thinking Well About the Kingdom of God

“A simple definition of the Kingdom of God is that his kingdom exists everywhere God’s rule extends, AND his will is done.”
― Curtis Ferrell, The Way to Discipleship: Thinking Well About the Kingdom of God

“We must preach the gospel of the Kingdom of God, purchased, and secured by Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, who was validated by the resurrection (Romans 1:4). And we must preach it so consistently that when we say the word “gospel” no one can misunderstand it to mean saying a magic prayer that purchases a ticket to heaven.”
― Curtis Ferrell, The Way to Discipleship: Thinking Well About the Kingdom of God

“Discipleship is both orthodoxy (learning and believing truth about God) and orthopraxy (learning how to live-out that truth). In sports we would say it’s about learning the playbook AND running the drills.”
