Tullian Tchividjian

God has hardwired me to thoroughly enjoy and be sharpened by good and friendly theological discussion about the gospel.

The Bible is plain that God requires moral perfection. It tells us unambiguously that God is holy and therefore cannot tolerate any hint of unholiness.

My observation of Christendom is that most of us tend to base our relationship with God on our performance instead of on His grace.

My style is Edie Sedgwick meets Grace Jones, or Audrey Hepburn meets Salt 'n' Pepa. Strong and feisty but still classic.

Call me Jonah. My parents did, or nearly did. They called me John.

Before I die, I will preach to the Muslims in the Arab world. I will preach in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria and Iran. I will preach in Tehran. I will do it under the umbrella of God. And see its impact.
