Let’s Talk About It Some More
I mean. Let’s talk about what the resurrection of our Lord really means to us. I can’t let it go. The resurrection of our Lord changes everything. He proved NOTHING is impossible with God. He proved that what He said would be. Jesus said to Martha after her brother, Lazarus died and was buried: “I…
Our Stone-Cold Jesus
The disciples thoughts on Saturday: “What on earth can we do now? Things looked so promising. Jesus healed the sick and gave the blind their sight back. He cast out demons and turned water into wine. He fed thousands of people with just a little bit of food. He even walked on water.” “And beyond…
Improving Our Serve
This photo is one of the world’s most famous paintings. It is a 15th Century mural painting by Leonardo da Vinci. The painting represents the scene of the Last Supper of Jesus Christ and His disciples. You can see how aghast they were at Jesus’ announcement that one of them would betray Him. Today is…
We are Chosen
We saw “The Chosen”, Series 4, 5 & 6 on Sunday night at the theater. As we watched the beauty of Jesus and his disciples and their comradery, I was reminded of the importance of friendships. But I also saw Jesus, in the movie, become quite frustrated at those knuckle-headed disciples who kept messing up.…
Peace be with You
I love those words — the words of speaking peace over someone. And isn’t that what this world needs – living in a state of God’s peace that passes all understanding, regardless of circumstances or places we happen to be in at any given time? Isn’t it inspiring to listen to the faith journeys of…
Harping about Loving
What can we do about this world’s craziness? Let it play out? Or, as Christians, demonstrate radical love so that hurting, misunderstood and broken people will know Jesus by OUR love. Jesus reached His world in three short years. Those years ignited a flame that continues to spread to OUR world. Jesus “harped” on love.…
Walking and Talking with Jesus
Can you imagine walking, talking, eating and laughing with Jesus day in and day out? I believe He had to lighten up and laugh with those misfits He called to be with Him 24/7 for three-and-a-half years. I appreciate how THE CHOSEN film series has captured some of those shenanigans and how patient Jesus is…
What Next?
Thursday, May 18th, was Ascension Thursday – the commemorative day when Jesus took His one-way trip back to heaven from whence He came to earth as a baby. Thirty-three years here – Jesus radically taught love, hope, and faith, healing people’s hearts and bodies, and showing us how to be successful in this life. And,…
Who Cares?
Let’s just get straight to the point of that question and give it an answer. God cares! “The LORD is near to those who are discouraged; He saves those who have lost all hope.” (Psalm 34:18) Life is filled with unexpected circumstances. I wish you could see my FB Messenger and the people who reach…
Surprised by Great Love
In these in-between days from Jesus’ resurrection to His ascension, I enjoy reading about the beautiful “surprise” stories that verifies that Jesus really came back to life and moved about to prove it. At first those who witnessed Him alive were startled and then they were elated that their Savior lived. I love the story…
