The Tweetable Paul Tripp
Many find it near impossible to say anything worth saying in 140 characters or less. But, I was struck at The Gospel Coalition Arizona’s recent What Did You Expect? Marriage Conference and Dangerous Calling Lunch by Paul Tripp’s uncanny ability to string together tweetable statements that packed a powerful punch.
That being said, I’ve put together a list of some of TGC AZ’s Tweets from this past weekend.

You don't have a slob problem, you have a treasure problem. (On those wives who are obsessed with a clean house) #WDYE #TGCAZ2014

Husbands, if spending time with your hobby feels better than spending time with your wife & family, you have a treasure problem. #WDYE

Naming something a "need" brings: 1) Entitlement 2) Demand for it 3) Judgemt on the love of those who won't / can't give it to you. #WDYE

LOVE: Love is willing self-sacrifice for the good of another that doesn't demand reciprocation or that the recipient deserves it. #WDYE
