What book would I give a brand-new Christian? Or a longtime believer who wants to rediscover what’s already theirs in Christ?

That was my burden as I wrote this book: a compass for the Christian life.

One of the most bracing quotes about forgiveness I’ve ever read.

Hardly a day goes by as a pastor when I don’t draw on what I learned at @SBTS. If you can move to Louisville for the residential experience, do it.

Southern Seminary is a sight to behold in the Fall—especially under the beeches.

Come to campus to study. It’s a one-of-kind place to be.

“Martha, Martha, you’re anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the good portion” (Luke 10:41–42).

Not “stumbled on.” Chosen.

You will never drift into devotion. Mute the noise, set aside the to-dos, and enjoy the King who loves you.
