The Lord Our Transfiguration

Lord, Your Transfiguration, my transfiguration.

“And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s Glory, 

are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing Glory.” 

(2 Corinthians 3:18)

Transformation by the Divine Fellowship

Salvation is not so much a matter of destination 

but of transformation by the divine fellowship 

of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

The Light of God

The light of God

does not come to condemn us

but to free us from

our darkness.

Jesus Entered Our Darkness

Jesus entered into our darkness

and faced down the accuser of our souls.

He is our light.

Rest and the Simplicity of Love

Lord my rest,

teach me Your way,

the simplicity of 

Your love.

Hope for the Ashes of Your Life

Bring the ashes of your life

and let them be marked with the cross

— for there is hope.

Christ’s Love Has No Shame

There is nothing 

that could ever put to shame 

the love Christ has for us.

The Light of Christ in Every Human Heart

The light of Christ shines in every human being 

and the darkness cannot overcome it.

Jesus is Not Disappointed

If we are disappointed in others on Jesus' behalf,

we probably need to spend more time with Jesus,

who is not disappointed in any of us

—He came to rescue all of us.

A Cross-Shaped, Resurrection-Shaped Life

The Christian life 

is one shaped by the 

death and resurrection 

of Christ.

A Word About Reading the Old Testament

If a literal reading of the Old Testament 

contradicts the revelation of God in Jesus Christ, 

then the literal reading must give way.

Which Will You Be?

Haters are gonna hate.

Lovers are gonna love.

Which will you be?

Not Certainty But Trust

Faith is not so much about certainty 

as it is about trust.

Ready to Forgive, Ready to Pray

If we are not ready to forgive

those who have sinned against us,

we are not ready to pray

the prayer Jesus
taught us.

Unforgiveness is a Road Block

When we are unwilling to forgive,

we are putting up a roadblock

to what God wants to do

in us and in the world.

Christians are Whacked Out People

Christians are those whacked-out people 

who believe that God has, in Christ, 

broken the power of sin and 

conquered death on our behalf, 

and that this changes everything.
