Quote
“There is a price to godliness and godliness is never on sale.” – Jerry Bridges
Question
Jerry reminds us that living a godly life requires real commitment, sacrifice, and intentionality. Godliness isn’t something we can obtain cheaply or casually—it demands our whole heart. It won’t be handed to us at a discount or found in shortcuts. We grow in godliness by daily dying to self, pursuing holiness, and relying on God’s grace through discipline and obedience. Have you been expecting spiritual growth without spiritual effort? What disciplines or sacrifices might God be inviting you to embrace in this season to grow more like Christ?
