Craving For Christian Community
As you know, you don’t have to be a pregnant woman to have cravings. It can be a day when you’ve been busy for a period of time and there is a lingering desire in the taste-buds for something familiar, or something particular whether familiar or not. You might remember back in the day Sprite […]

I know this is usually put at the end of a church gathering, but listening to this works for me just as well at the beginning of the day … indeed any time of the day. I love the reminder it gives me of what resides in me and how I share that with others […]

On the one hand I’m not into New Years Resolutions. Anything worth planning for or resolving is something that should be part of every day life, so I have no recollection of any New Year’s resolution I’ve ever made and I have no recollection of making any in the last year or so. On the […]

The curtain was rent asunder and that meant there was open access. Where before there was a set procedure to get your religious stuff sorted and that meant going through the priest system, Jesus fulfilled all that in His sacrifice on the Cross. The wonderful thing about the arrangement highlighted in Hebrews is that Jesus […]

Before I wrote this morning’s post on Jesus being the Door, I read and re-read John 9 and 10. In the preparation for these posts I would often spend some time pondering on my assumptions about certain references and how they match up to other perspectives on those same scriptures. For example John 10:10 is […]
