I remember these words, often spoken in the inimitable voice of Dr. Boice.  I encourage you to read it until it becomes personally sweet. This statement marries gospel doctrine to gospel culture. May we all chase after Jesus in such a way that it becomes more and more true of us.

To all who are weary and need rest

To all who mourn and long for comfort

To all who feel worthless and wonder if God cares

To all who fail and desire strength

To all who sin and need a Savior

This church opens wide her doors with a welcome from Jesus Christ,

The Ally of His enemies, the Defender of the guilty, the Justifier of the inexcusable,

The Friend of Sinners, Welcome!
