Simple

I think I heard the best telling of the gospel ever last night. And it was done in only a few sentences. I was at the Alive Festival in Canal Fulton, Ohio watching the group "Casting Crowns". Mark, the lead singer, was speaking. He said he could think of a lot of people he would be willing to give his life for. I can too. And then he said this:

"But I can't think of anyone I'd be willing to give my son for."

Me neither.

That made me realize how deep and desperate is God's love for us. He's willing to shout it from the mountain top. He's whispering it in our ear.
