So far, it's everything I've already known. Christ is for the sinner and so is the church. That heaven will be filled with earthly sinners who washed their garments in the blood of Christ. Hopefully something in here will be something I haven't yet heard and known.

We must never allow the authority of books, institutions, or leaders to replace the authority of knowing Jesus Christ personally and directly. When the religious views of others interpose between us and the primary experience of Jesus as the Christ, we become unconvicted, unpersuasive travel agents handing out brochures to places we have never visited."
