Quote of the Day

"We need to recover the grand, cosmic significance of Jesus' saving activity that moves the gospel out of the narrow realm of our self-preoccupation. One of the marvelous things about this gospel is that He has saved us so that we can be a part of His redeeming activity. The gospel properly understood, is much broader than our concerns for personal survival, security, significance, success, or even self-centered sanctification. The gospel presents us with a Jesus, not meek and mild, but One come to set the world on fire. It presents us with a plunderer, and it bids us to throw ourselves away in the pursuit of this new world order."

--Bob Heppe, Missionary
