Light and Easy
August 25, 2009
Kevin DeYoung (a pastor, and co-author of, among other books, Why We’re Not Emergent and Why We Love the Church) writes today a timely and deeply refreshing article addressing a common problem in the church–namely, the teaching that we need to “do more.” It occurred to me while reading the article that it fits quite nicely with the current series in Sunday School, which is addressing the Law-Gospel dynamic.
Here is one of the best lines of the whole thing:
“The secret of the gospel is that we actually do more when we hear less about all we need to do for God and hear more about all that God has already done for us.”
Read and be edified. His yoke is easy and His burden is light.
