1. The notion that your goodness is “good enough” to make you right with God is a lie straight from the father of lies himself.
  2. Applying the pressure of law to ensure you do not to take grace for granted squeezes the life and power out of the gospel.
  3. Sin is a heavy thing to bear. Its jacket is shame, its medals are guilt.
  4. This is the sound of freedom. The Eternal One died so that we who are dying might live eternally with him.
  5. Your champion steps forward.
  6. He shows up when we are at our worst to usher us back to his side, lead us to repentance, rescue us, and reclaim us as his own.
  7. Sometimes, we get prayer dementia. We can’t remember what we were going to pray for, we can’t put the words together, and, frustrated, there is nothing we can do but sigh and groan.
  8. The more I got to know Dr. Rosenbladt, the more I saw that he wasn’t a man divided.
  9. He was rooted in his own tradition but gracious with others when they wanted to learn about his faith or their own.
  10. Anyone could tell he enjoyed teaching theology and loved his students.
  11. In a world—and even a church—full of distractions, thank God for Rod Rosenbladt. He pointed us to Jesus and Jesus alone.
