Will You Recognize Jesus in 2023?

Would you know Jesus if He walked right beside you? I’m not sure I would. His own disciples didn’t recognize Him. In Luke 24 we're told how the resurrected Jesus caught up with two of His followers, in deep conversation, as they walked from Jerusalem ...

A Tale of Two Funerals

Dying has been on my mind lately. Specifically I've pondered the disparity, at the end of life, between a person who knows the Lord and a person who doesn't. Not only has my relationship with the Lord added unimaginable value to my life on earth, ...

Forgotten Gifts

I’m living my dream. The thought struck me just as my foot struck the asphalt. I’d crossed the long winding street—the one that ties many neighborhoods together— for approximately the 800th time, as I began my daily walk. Many years earlier I’d imagined how nice ...

Just Say Yes

Saying yes can have amazing results. Where would we be without the yeses of Abraham, Moses, Ruth, David, Mary, Joseph and even Jesus? Our heroes said yes in fear, but with great faith in God. Each decision we make directs us to another decision and ...

Normal Radical Christianity

On the same day a teenager gunned down cute little kids in Texas, I smiled and talked to strangers on my morning walk, then gawked at giant creamy magnolia blooms, like I didn’t have a care. How can this juxtaposition exist? Horror, evil and death ...
