“Jesus Christ is the supreme and perfect example of suffering for righteousness' sake. "For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation through sufferings" (Heb 2:10). Just as suffering was essential to Christ's obedience to His Father, so it is essential to our obedience to Christ.” Pg. 109

I fear I will not be able to put this down.
Next update will probably be a five star review.

“From that time on, every believer has been indwelt by Christ's own Holy Spirit, whose ministry to us includes that of shedding divine light on scriptural truths that otherwise are beyond our comprehension.” Pg. 75

Devney Perry, you never fail to catch my attention.

“It is also important to realize that deliverance from divine condemnation does not mean deliverance from divine discipline. "For those whom the Lord loves He disciplines, and He scourges every son whom He receives" (Heb 12:6). Nor does deliverance from God's condemnation mean escape from our accountability to Him: "Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap" (Gal 6:7)

There are so many good quotes to share, along with many sermons Vincent once preached. Unfortunately… the notes have a number count-which would exceed the limit, to share with you. Just know, this is a book worth reading, even if you aren’t interested in art history.

Audiobook, since I don’t feel like doing the math, imma just say I’m this far in. It’s really good! I recommend! It’s also a classic, for its free one the podcast app😉

I have deemed this gem as my nighttime read.

The following is the first of any quotes:

“Rarely are readers welcomed as wholeheartedly and intimately into the process of creation of truly great art as they are through Van Gogh's letters.”
