If you really love people, they will see it in your manners, motives, and mood.

It helps the preacher and the listener focus.

An interview with Haddon Robinson on what people can count on God to do in their lives

God keeps pursuing us and waiting for us to cast ourselves on his faithful love.

When love is rooted in Christ, it will hope and endure in all things.

Christlike love bears with people, offering protection and trust.

God’s love is made visible when we don’t delight in evil and we rejoice in truth.

God calls “spiritually challenged” people to show love through forgiveness.

Love builds community; it does not break down community through envy, boasting, or pride.

The Christian life often boils down to being patient and kind with people—even impossible people.

Many things matter in life, but the most important thing is to do everything in love.

How to stay on course with your most important message

God overlooks ignorance, but ignorance can do great damage.

Spending time with God is more important than getting many things done or doing all things well.

Christians must learn to value the times, recognize the source of their security, prioritize community, and adopt God’s seemingly incongruous perspective.

Doctrine is huge. Bigger than life, in the minds of many. Too much for feeble minds on Sunday morning, say others. Here’s how to keep your feet on the ground when preaching about the things of God.

Haddon Robinson

It’s when we’re applying Scripture that error most likely creeps in.

Little unremembered acts of kindness are important to the king.

Like Paul, we should do anything short of sinning to win people to Christ.

In a “meaningless” life, you can trust the sovereign, good, and righteous God.

God’s loyalty toward us is to be the loyalty we display to those who choose to be our followers.

Satan comes in disguise and attacks God’s character so that we doubt God’s Word and his goodness.

Following the model set forth in “The Lord’s Prayer,” we start with the Father, speak to him about his program and then talk to him about the family.

To live to pursue riches and success is foolish, for these things are not eternal.

Humility comes from looking at God and then seeing ourselves.

Making Your Sermons More Credible

Life on the job is too important to give it light treatment.
