Before Winter: How?

God stands by our side, gives us strength, and rescues us from difficulties. Are we aware? Are we thankful?

Before Winter: What?

Besides a snow shovel and warm clothes, what do we need physically—and what do we need spiritually—to be prepared for winter?

The Day He Talked About Generosity

Jesus says the widow who gave two “pennies” (mites) gave more than all the rest because she gave her all. How does that math work?

The Day He Busted Up the Church

Jesus made it real clear (i.e., used physical force) that the church is not an institution to serve our purposes or agendas.

The Day He Took My Lunch

Find out why Jesus takes a boy’s simple lunch of fish and bread and turns it into an all-you-can-eat affair for a huge crowd. (hint: it’s a miracle.)

The Day He Stopped the Bleeding

Jesus heals a woman who has been bleeding for 12 years. How can we help heal a broken world?

The Day He Carried My Burden

Jesus offers to trade burdens. He tells us to take his burden because it’s easy and light and will give us rest.

The Day He Schooled the Fishermen

Twice Jesus shows unsuccessful fishermen where to catch fish. Listening to Jesus is not a one and done thing. It’s a lifetime of being schooled by the Master.

The Day He Wept

In our tragedies Jesus cries with us. Feels our pain. One of the reasons he came in human flesh. But Jesus does not weep as one who has no hope or one who is powerless.

You’ve Got Mail
