“The time is coming, and is here now, when the world won’t listen to our gospel simply because they respect us. However, they might listen if we respect them. Because how can we expect homosexuals to believe our concern for God’s created order when we don’t dignify them as people made in his image? How can we call our coworkers to submit to Christ as Lord when they don’t see us gladly and respectfully submitting to our boss? How can we tell of God’s love for the world when we exhibit disdain and revulsion toward our neighbors? How can we demonstrate a Christ-like compassion for our enemies when all they hear from us is concern for our rights and privileges? To honor others is to have a genuine care and concern for them. So this is what we must do—even for those who have no concern for us.”

“So stop living your life in fear, and wear the cultural dissonance as a badge of honor. Fear no one but God.”

“For every saint in exile, this is the source of our song in the night. It’s not that all our hard questions have been finally answered but that God has made a way for us to be rescued from our sin and reconciled to him. Exile is not our eternal lot. All who are in Christ know that soon—very soon—we shall, like him, be home again, where we shall see the King in all his glory.”
