Comprehend Fully, Live Deeper

"..the spiritual poverty of so much of our Christian experience is the result of inadequate understanding of the gospel's depth.  The answer isn't to try harder in the Christian life but to comprehend more fully and clearly Christ's incredible work on the cross, and then to live in a more vital awareness of that grace day by day.  The main problem in the Christian life, in other words, is not that we don't try hard enough to be good.  It's that we haven't though out the deep implications of the gospel and applied its powerful reality to all parts of our life."

- Tullian Tchivijian, Surprised By Grace, page 17
