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 [...]

The Good Stuff

We only have so much time in our lives. I’m not just talking about big picture, total heartbeats in your life type of stuff. I’m also talking about the fact that there are only 24 hours today. There’s only so much time that we have. And are very busy people. There’s so much we have [...]

In John’s Gospel in particular, Jesus says over and over that if we love Him and follow Him, we will obey His commandments. Ok, that we know what we are supposed to do. So, then, what are we supposed to do? He tells us today in this passage. Listen to what He says in John [...]

One of the things I think we all struggle with is that for most of us, we know that we’ve got it pretty good. We know that our troubles, as real as they are, aren’t the worst in all the world. And so, that makes us feel bad when we pray for the things in [...]

Christianity doesn’t promise the moon and the stars. It doesn’t promise that everything will be perfect. It doesn’t promise that everything will be great. Paul says today that we will toil, we struggle we work. There are and there will be tough times in our faith and in our lives. That’s simply reality. It’s what [...]

Paul says something really big and scary in today’s reading. Something I’m not sure I’d want to say or any of us would want to say. It’s some big words. But, it’s something that we each say, each day of our lives. Listen to what he writes in Philippians 3:17-20: Brothers, join in imitating me, [...]
A Good Life?

Paul tells us in Thessalonians today to live a good life. Gulp. That sounds hard. That sounds like it might be impossible. That sounds like it might be too much. I’m not sure I want to do that. I mean, a good life? Does that mean I have to be perfect? Move to Africa? Do [...]

One of the most powerful scenes I’ve ever seen in a movie was near the end of Saving Private Ryan. Many of you have seen the movie, but for those of you that haven’t, the movie is about a unit of soliders in World War 2 that is sent to save Private Ryan, the only [...]
