Dear Family and Friends, As we approach Easter, let’s take one last look at the risen Jesus. In reading through the last chapters of each Gospel, it’s clear that the risen Jesus took a very personal approach towards everyone He met. With Mary, Jesus called her by name. With the two disciples on the road to Emmaus, He broke

Dear Family and Friends, We’re all familiar with the following encounter between Jesus and Peter. This, their third time together since Jesus was resurrected, was the first time that we know they spoke. “When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, ‘Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?’ ‘Yes, Lord,’ he

Dear Family and Friends, Let’s prepare our hearts for Easter by spending the next few weeks talking about the resurrected Jesus. We begin with two Easter Sunday encounters. Mary wept when she saw that Jesus’ body was missing from the tomb. But then the scriptures say, “…she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she

Dear Family and Friends, We all inherited attributes from our Father. They include love, goodness and justice. It seems I was given a healthy dose of God’s justice trait. I know this because seeing injustice against anyone drives me crazy. Have you ever stopped to wonder, or even ask God, why is He allowing an increasing

Dear Family and Friends, Have you ever returned to work after a weekend off or even a vacation, and not felt refreshed? I have – – many times. I could never understand why until studying another set of verses from the book of Hebrews. As previously mentioned, Hebrews was written to a group of Jewish Christians living under

Dear Family and Friends, My high school track coach was a sadist. He took pleasure in watching us suffer. His greatest joy came from making us run what’s called sprint intervals. He made us sprint halfway around the track, then jog the second half. Then he would scream at us over the next hour as

Dear Family and Friends, As mentioned in a previous message, the book of Hebrews was written to Jewish Christians under threat for their faith. The attacks left them distraught. They felt abandoned by God. In Hebrews 3, the writer reminded them that during the Exodus their ancestors also felt abandoned. They expected the Promised Land.

Dear Family and Friends, If you’ve ever been in an earthquake, you know that when your surroundings shake, you shake too. That said, let me ask – do you feel like the world around us is shaking? Do you have an uneasy feeling – like something is wrong but you don’t know what? Are you
