Hebrews 1:1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe… 2:1 We must pay the most careful […]

I am always unsure about the making of New Year’s resolutions. Just setting myself up for failure as the first post-Christmas chocolate shows up in the partially devoured box from the prior year…like, you know, from yesterday. And the frugal side of me thinks, “You don’t want to throw out perfectly good chocolate. What a […]

Shepherds weren’t just nobodies. They weren’t just lowly. They were dregs. And yet, the Interlude of waiting for Messiah put them in front row seats to the biggest event of all human history after Creation. Luke 2:8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 […]

Scripture says that “Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given. For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.” (John 1:16-17) Think about it: Jesus could have come right after Adam and Eve fell into sin.

Lots of people, especially politicians and bureaucrats, like to refer to themselves as “civil servants.” Too often that’s how those seeking power talk but not how they act once they are installed in a position of power.
