At that time did Jesus go on the sabbaths through the corn, and his disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck ears, and to eat, and the Pharisees having seen, said to him, `Lo, thy disciples do that which it is not lawful to do on a sabbath.’ And he said to them, `Did yeContinue reading “Lord of Laws”

Formation: James 1:8
The Book of James Discipleship Meeting: My view of a discipleship meeting vs. any other meeting is that discipleship is about learning how to better walk with Jesus. The meeting is not about “worshiping” as in music, it’s about New Testament worship, the laying down of our lives (Romans 12:1). The meeting is not about havingContinue reading “Formation: James 1:8”

unimpressive
One of my favorite quotes comes from one of my favorite authors and one of my favorite books, (yes, I am plugging a book). “You’re never less alone than when you are by yourself.” – Henri Nouwen – The Way of the Heart, Desert Spirituality for Contemporary Ministry I love that quote because it speaks of God’sContinue reading “unimpressive”
You have One Father in Heaven…
From the outside, it can seem like Christianity is working to become something that you’re not. In actuality, it’s a returning to who you were created to be. A return to the natural you. The authentic, honest you. That’s who God desires you to be… and deep down that’s who you desire to be. Return…Continue reading “You have One Father in Heaven…”
Angry with God?
When I was younger in the Lord I worked for a science museum, it was a great job to interact with a lot of people, I loved it. I remember meeting a volunteer there who was an older man. He was possibly in his mid sixties with a well worn wrinkled face, he was leanContinue reading “Angry with God?”
