PROOF: Not a “Mama Tried” Kind of God

19th May 2014

Broken dreams are woven deeply into the fabric of human existence—so deeply that it’s easy for us to assume God’s plans fail, just like ours. In fact, that’s precisely what some theologians have claimed over the past few decades. According to one best-selling book from a Jewish rabbi, God wishes he could make everything right […]

PROOF: Good News (and Not-So-Good News) for Spiritual Zombies

5th May 2014

God’s plan has always been to multiply the fame of his own name by giving new life to the spiritually dead (Ephesians 1:4–2:5). The price that this plan required was nothing less than the slaughter of a perfect substitute—a gift too great for anyone but God to give, with a price too high for anyone […]

PROOF: God Doesn’t Need You—and That’s Good News

28th April 2014

  A little more than a decade ago, my wife and I sat at a table in a cramped office that reeked of scorched coffee and mildewed carpet. While social workers shuffled around us, we pored over page after page in a file that never seemed to end. “Cruelty to animals.” “Persistent patterns of theft […]

PROOF: The Global Good News of Grace

21st April 2014

  When the authors of the New Testament spoke of Jesus redeeming “the world,” they weren’t teaching that everyone would be saved. They weren’t even claiming that Jesus redeemed every individual in the world! What the biblical writers meant by “the world” was a gathering that included people from every nation. To celebrate Jesus as “the […]

PROOF: Nothing Left to Prove

7th April 2014

Human religion claims that God will do his part if only you do yours. The gospel of grace declares that God in Christ has already done his part–and yours. From the moment you first rest in Christ as your only hope, you have no failures to hide and no triumphs to hide behind. Your shortfallings […]

PROOF: Grace Always Makes the First Move

31st March 2014

An excerpt from the forthcoming book PROOF: Finding Freedom through the Intoxicating Joy of Irresistible Grace: “There is no doctrine more hated by worldlings,” nineteenth-century Baptist pastor Charles Haddon Spurgeon once pointed out, “as the great, stupendous, but yet most certain doctrine of [God’s] sovereignty.” Ever since sin plunged the cosmos into darkness, humanity has […]

PROOF: An Anthem of Resurrecting Grace

26th March 2014

In PROOF: Finding Freedom through the Intoxicating Joy of Irresistible Grace, a book I co-authored with Sojourn Community Church pastor Daniel Montgomery, we explain the biblical truth of “resurrecting grace.” What we mean by this is simply that all of us exist as spiritual zombies—the walking dead—until God’s resurrecting grace invades and enlivens our hearts: “Spiritual […]
