“…The identity I tried to establish by obedience to the Law is dead, the life Jesus lived to fulfill the Law is mine.”
― Bryan Chapell, Holiness by Grace: Delighting in the Joy That Is Our Strength

“We were given appetites, not to consume the world and forget it, but to taste its goodness and hunger to make it great.

That is the unconsolable heartburn, the lifelong disquietude of having been made in the image of God.”
― Robert Farrar Capon

“The Gods we worship write their names on our faces; be sure of that. And a man will worship something ... That which dominates will determine his life and character. Therefore it behooves us to be careful what we worship, for what we are worshipping we are becoming.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Godly grief does not paralyze with a pervasive sense of guilt. Rather, it identifies specific ways we have turned from God and offers a holy opportunity for the restoration of relationship with God, others, and the land by reconnecting our hearts to God’s heart and then to the hearts of those we have made to suffer. Godly grief leads to cleansing confession and repentance.”
― Mae Elise Cannon, Forgive Us: Confessions of a Compromised Faith
