Yesterday we talked about how Jesus was what really mattered in our lives. As important as theology is, Jesus is what matters the most. He is the foundation, He is the rock, He is what counts and what everything comes down to. Today, we look at what a life following Jesus is based upon. Look [...]
What Matters

I’ve never been one for arguing about theology. I’ve never been one to really want to fuss with others about what I believe and what they believe. Now, I’ve got a theology. I know what I believe about God. And I really like what I believe about God. I think what I believe about relates [...]

John the Baptist knew who Jesus was. Scripture tells the story that even while he was in his mother’s womb, he leapt for joy when Mary came to visit, for even then he knew that the Messiah was there. John was the one appointed by God to go and to prepare the way for Jesus. [...]

We are all connected to each other. Through Christ, we are connected. He is my Father. And if you are His, you are His child as I am. That makes him your Father as well. And if He’s your Father, that makes us family. That makes us siblings. We need each other. We are connected. [...]

There’s a couple of sayings that we’ve heard before – you are what you eat. The stuff you eat in many ways determines how you feel and how much energy you have. I don’t know if I buy that, buy my dietitian wife swears its true! The second is – garbage in, garbage out. This [...]

Listen to a reading today from Mark 8:1-8. And listen to it like you’ve never heard it before: In those days, when again a great crowd had gathered, and they had nothing to eat, he called his disciples to him and said to them, “I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with [...]
We Raise Our White Flag

I can’t get the newest Chris Tomlin song from Passion out of my mind. At first, I didn’t care for it. I don’t know, it just didn’t do anything for me. But the more I listened to it, the more I liked it. And now I can’t get it out of my mind. It’s the [...]
It All Comes Down to Jesus

I was having a conversation with a friend yesterday at lunch and we were talking about church. Talking about leadership and connection and fellowship and growth and all the stuff that goes into church. We talked about our excitement in church, over frustrations, over all types of things. And as we were leaving, we both [...]
It’s Gonna Happen

One of the great things we see about God’s love is that it can’t help but overflow to others. When we understand that God loves us, we can’t help but let that love just run over onto others. Listen to what Jesus says today in John 7:37-39: On the last day of the feast, the [...]
