Seeing the “Good” in Good Friday
https://videopress.com/v/GDiOQk1j?resizeToParent=true&cover=true&preloadContent=metadata&useAverageColor=true We wouldn’t see the “Good” in Good Friday if it wasn’t for Resurrection Sunday. We don’t always understand the purpose behind our own suffering and pain until we experience our own resurrection, too. Here’s your Good Friday reminder that “We know that in all things God works for the good of those who loveContinueContinue reading “Seeing the “Good” in Good Friday”
More Than a Conqueror
At that time some Pharisees came to Jesus and said to him, “Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod wants to kill you.” He replied, “Go tell that fox, ‘I will keep on driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach my goal.’ In any case, I mustContinueContinue reading “More Than a Conqueror”
Look Forward to the Resurrection
As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus gave them orders not to tell anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead. They kept the matter to themselves, discussing what “rising from the dead” meant…They left that place and passed through Galilee. Jesus did not want anyone to know where theyContinueContinue reading “Look Forward to the Resurrection”

Re-joyce
The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me…to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion—to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. (Isaiah 61:1-3 NIV) Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again:ContinueContinue reading “Re-joyce”
God is Not in the Noise
Then he was told, “Go, stand on the mountain at attention before God. God will pass by.” A hurricane wind ripped through the mountains and shattered the rocks before God, but God wasn’t to be found in the wind; after the wind an earthquake, but God wasn’t in the earthquake; and after the earthquake fire, but God wasn’t in the fire; and after the fireContinueContinue reading “God is Not in the Noise”
