He Still Moves Stones
Overview
Why does the Bible contain so many stories of hurting people? Though their situations vary, their conditions don't. They have nowhere to turn. Yet before their eyes stands a never-say-die Galilean who majors in stepping in when everyone else steps out. Lucado reminds us that the purpose of these portraits isn't to tell us what Jesus did—but rather to remind us what Jesus still does.
Top Highlights
“Legalism doesn’t need God. Legalism is the search for innocence—not forgiveness. It’s a systematic process of defending self, explaining self, exalting self, and justifying self. Legalists are obsessed with self—not God.” (source)
“The adversary won’t turn you against the church; he will turn you toward yourself in the church. He won’t take you away from your ministry; he’ll disillusion you in your ministry.” (source)
“Everyone who believes can have eternal life. Not ‘everyone who achieves.’ Not ‘everyone who succeeds.’ Not ‘everyone who agrees.’ But ‘everyone who believes.’” (source)
“ Legalism is just enough religion to keep you, but not enough to nourish you.” (source)
“Time, as they say, is a great healer, but it’s a lousy beautician.” (source)
