Of all the parables that Jesus told, in only one of them does he name a character. And he is the lowest, loneliest, most helpless and pitiful character in them all. He’s a homeless, penniless beggar. He’s “laid at a rich man’s gate,” which means he can’t walk. His skin oozes…
We are fearfully and wonderfully made
This is the incredible moment Lucy, a 13-yr-old who is blind and neurodiverse, played a highly-complex Chopin piece.
Sometimes in ministry encouragement and discouragement hit fast and back to back. One conversation to the next. One email and the next. If you resonate with that I want to encourage you to take both your joy and your sorrow to the Lord. He understands both and will comfort you.
Pharisees repent of their wrongdoing, but they don't repent of the reasons for their right-doing which are just as bad.
Makes my heart soar: ‘Amazing Grace’ sung at the Notre Dame Cathedral today.
A church should not simply have a missions department. It should wholly exist to be a mission.
Next week! Tune into the @TODAYshow for our Thanksgiving celebration of @StJude beginning early Monday morning with former patient Addie sharing her beautiful singing voice. Thanks as always to @nbc and TODAY for sharing the St. Jude mission and our stories.
“I sat with my anger long enough until she told me her real name was grief.” ― C.S. Lewis
Pastors are not CEOs. Churches are not corporations. Members of the community are not investors. We are shepherds. We are a new family. We are a community of servants.
I know so many people leaving six-figure jobs to make half as much doing their own thing. A friend just left her $150K corporate job for a $60K online business so she can pick up her kids from school and have dinner with her family. This trend is only growing.
Tony Campolo died. He preached in my small Texas town when I was a kid. He said something like: “Yesterday X number of kids in the USA died from starvation and malnutrition, and most of you don’t give a damn. In fact, you’re more upset I said ‘damn’ than you are that those kids…
What to do when your kids aren't walking with Jesus: 1. Pray without ceasing. 2. Remember that God loves them even more than you do. 3. Don't compromise your faith, but also don't argue about it. 4. Don't burn a bridge, so they have a path back. 5. Point to Jesus when possible.
The God of the Bible is a God of grace, who is faithful to us even when we are unfaithful to him.
Leadership that looks like Christ focuses on the internal kingdom rather than the external. We tend to measure success by crowd size, money, buildings, and positions. God is focused on the kingdom of the heart, and a true follower of Jesus sees life from God’s perspective.
Having a sense of being loved deeply by Christ allows us to forgive when someone wrongs us because we can afford to be generous.
Don't let success go to your head. Don't let failure go to your heart.
A Liturgy for Election Day: “If we are pleased with the results of today’s election, let us yet in humility remember that every earthly authority must one day give way to your eternal rule— so let us in grace love all our neighbors well. Or, if we are disappointed, let us…
I am going to judge my circumstances by Jesus’ love, not Jesus’ love by my circumstances.
Stop looking for a perfect church. It does not exist. Join an imperfect church and serve in every way you can to make it nearer perfection.
