There are plenty of opinions about Jesus, and that’s nothing new. Even while he was traveling and teaching around the region of Galilee, some people clamored to see him and others despised him. They all heard the same teaching and saw the same miracles, but they reacted very differently. When you think about the things […]

Of Three Minds: Part 1

What comes to mind when you think of Easter? Colored eggs, chocolate bunnies, kids dressed in pastels? But this holiday is more than candy and delicious food and pastel colors. It’s a victory celebration. The Enemy did everything to try to wipe out the the bloodline of David and to stop any chance of a […]

Sunday Morning Live!

Palm Sunday celebrates the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem, but it wasn’t long before he was assassinated. It looked like the enemy had won. But Jesus surprised everybody by gaining victory through humility and self sacrifice.

See You in the Morning

Do you have any struggles?  It seems like just about everybody does.  Some struggles we choose—like getting in shape or learning a new language.  Some we don’t have any choice in—like dealing with cancer or the loss of a loved one. Jesus struggled against suffering and death by choice.  He entered into a broken and […]

I Have Issues

The Tax Man What comes to mind when you hear the word “church”? Do you picture a happy place or a somber gathering?  Do you see steeples and stained glass or modern architecture?  Maybe you think of classic hymns sung by a choir or you hear eclectic guitars and drums.  Churches can look, sound, and […]

The Tax Man

How do you feel about authority? Lots of people have lots of opinions—and they can be very different depending on your experience with various kinds of authority. Some people fear it. Some respect it. And Some rebel against it. Matthew tells us about how Jesus handled authority in a way that surprised everybody.

A Problem with Authority

“What kind of man is this?” A lot of people ask that question about Jesus–including his disciples. After following him around for years and watching him teach and interact with with people and the environment, Matthew recounts one of his memories of Jesus to answer that question. It was a crazy experience that included stormy […]

From Enemy to Faithful

If you could ask Jesus to do one thing for you, what would it be?

Cleanliness is Next to Godliness

We can do this the easy way or the hard way.

All Roads Lead to God

Wouldn’t it be nice if everybody treated everybody else the way they would like to be treated? That’s how Jesus tells his followers to live. Do you think the Golden Rule is a good idea?

The Golden Rule

Ever wondered why your prayers aren’t being answered or if God is even listening? We’ve all been there. But Jesus says if you knock, the door is open.

Door’s Open!

Going by the rhetoric from both sides, tomorrow’s vote will be the Election to END ALL Elections!  So I thought I might suggest a solution that could put an end to all the hysteria and maybe save us all from the end of the world on Tuesday. ?

The Doctrine of Election

The true story of the Magi Matthew 2:1-12 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, in the time of King Herod, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem 2saying, “Where is the one who is born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship […]

Oh, a wiseguy eh?
