There have been few times in my life that I have been challenged and pressed more than what I just experienced at the Gospel Coalition.  I just got back from Chicago and I’m still trying to process, pray and work through the Word I received.  From idols being exposed, to my fear and cowardice in sharing the gospel, to my repaying evil with evil instead of repaying it with good, to my lack of pursuit to know God – I have been laid bare.  I am a weak.  I am a sinful.  And yet, there is a deep – though painful – joy in seeing all of this.  It is here that I also see the greatness of God’s mercy toward me in Christ, and here that I am reminded that God is not finished with me, and it is here that I heed Paul’s warning to press on toward the goal.  I invite you to be exposed by listening to these messages; it’s a painful joy that you need to know.
