“When we share his grace and truth by actions or words, and are welcomed to do so, Christ Jesus is also welcomed.”
Everything Changes
“It’s not about living a balanced life of affirming the name of Jesus AND affirming other names in the same manner and degree.”
One Wasn’t Enough
“There needed to be more than just one shepherd for the growing crowds. There needed to be more than just one comforter for all the helpless.”
I Have Come for You
“The broken and forgotten, the sinners and traitors, are blessed more from God by mercy than by sacrifices made that don’t affect them at all.”
They Needed to Respond
“Even in the doing, God was and is at work in repentance, baptism and the receiving of the Holy Spirit.”
Fully Alive
“We have been made strong! WE CARRY SOMETHING.”
It Is in Both
“It’s not a mere encounter in the physical, but we bear witness in this PLACE of a HISTORICAL FIGURE who has impacted us in our spirits. The physical and spiritual are essential in our telling of the story of Jesus.”
See & Hear
“What is meant to happen in us when we come and see and come and hear?”
It Is a Challenge
“Wisdom everywhere, courage nowhere. Dear Lord, we are dying of prudence.”
In This World
“A new realm of living that is not merely focused on a life in heaven, but in a life through Jesus we come in and go out.”
Psalm 102 in The Message
