By Following the Spirit

We fulfill the Law not by following the Law

but by following the Spirit,

whose fruit is love.

We are Always Reaching Out

We are always reaching out for God and each other.

We just very often do not realize it.

Christ the Lens and Context

Christ is the lens through which we read the Scripture,

the context by which we understand the world.

Every Moment and My Identity in Christ

Every moment, 

regardless of season or circumstance,

is an opportunity for me to become

what God has created me to be

~ to discover my

true identity

in Christ.

Because Tomorrow May Be Your Turn

Weep with those who weep, 

for tomorrow it may be your turn. 

And rejoice with those who rejoice. 

Same reason.

Doing Good Theology

When we love well,

we are doing good theology,

for God is love.

Discovering Our True Selves

The good news of the gospel is that in Jesus Christ 

we discover our true selves being renewed 

to the image of our Creator, 

and so become who 

we really are.

Allowing God’s Forgiveness a Place in Us

To the extent we are willing to forgive others, 

we are allowing God’s forgiveness

a place in us.

Jesus Came for All

Jesus has never been about the difference 

between us and them.

 He came for all.

All Are Chosen in Christ

The good news of the gospel is that we are chosen in Christ 

for the unity of all things in heaven and on earth 

... which means that all are chosen.
