Easter Gift: The Ability To SEE What God Is Really Like

Read John 9: 1-41  The theme for my last post was Jesus’ claim to be the “light of the world” (8:12).  As the events of chapter 9 unfold, we see that Jesus performs a miracle to illustrate this theme.  The story of the healing of the blind man shows how the “light of the world” […]

Live At Peace With Others

Yesterday I posted a blog about the ONEness of God.  It spoke about the experience of relationship within the Trinity.  Today I feel inspired to write a bit about the implications of God’s ONEness (unity of the Godhead) and what that might say about our experience of relationship with one another as human beings under […]

The ONEness of God

Read Ephesians 4:3-6  (This is an old document that I dusted off from many years ago!  I am sure that some of the thoughts and references are not original, but the notations are missing.  So consider most of is quotation.)

Are You A “Poop Machine?”

Frightened by the clamor of thunder in the night, a little child cried out.  Holding her securely in his arms, her father explained that she needn’t fear.  God would take care of her because He loved her greatly.  “I know God will take care of me and love me,” she relied.  “But right now, Daddy, […]

As You Wish

Read Matthew 3:13-17 One of my favorite novels is called The Princess Bride.  About twenty years ago, while I was a student in seminary, the book became the basis of a movie by the same title, directed by Rob Reiner.  It has been my favorite movie since it was released.  My family and I have […]

Why Did Jesus Come?

From my friend Steve McVey: Jesus didn’t come into the world so that the Father would change His mind about us. Your Father has never been angry with man and Jesus came to show us that. He came to change our minds about the Father. He told story after story to show us the great […]
