Francis Chan, Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God

"The wise man comes to God without saying a word and stands in awe of Him" (25)

R. C. Sproul as quoted in Chan: "'Men are never duly touched and impressed with a conviction of their insignificance until they have contrasted themselves with the majesty of God" (26).

"spiritual amnesia"

A. W. Tozer as quoted in Chan: "'... the gravest question before the Church is always God Himself, and the most portentous fact about any man is not what he at a given time may say or do, but what he in his deep heart conceives God to be like" (30).

We "worship a God we cannot exaggerate" (31).

I was created for God; I live as though He were created for me (33).

Romans 4:11--parallel between circumcision and baptism?

v. 17, NAS: God "calls into being that which does not exist."

Jesus' resurrection is my justification, v. 25
