Since Jesus has done everything we need for salvation, we can focus our works and efforts on serving our neighbor.
06/11/20
The unrelenting truth of the Gospel is our only hope. Jesus Christ is the unshakeable, unmovable object of our faith. It is this hope in Christ that we find relief and comfort.

The enemy comes with his wounding, haunting words, and I stand behind my advocate Christ the Lord. He gives me more words, better words, truer words.
06/09/20
As the storm waves of life crash into us, threatening to pull us down into the undertow of sin, Jesus comes and stands between us and the furious tides.

Christ isn’t preached in his glory but in his ignominy, his utter shame, degradation, and desolation.
06/05/20
Christ is joy and sweetness to a broken heart. Christ is a lover of poor sinners, and such a lover that He gave Himself for us.

We are meant to serve in love both our neighbor in need as well as the neighbor who doesn’t think they need us.

Our use–or disuse–of language reveals a deeper need than a bubbly carbonated soda. It highlights a gift given and a gift fallen, and it leaves us thirsting for a gift restored.
