While the world is full of horizons and endpoints, for Christians, there is always tomorrow, and there are people in that tomorrow waiting for us as we wait for them.

Today on the show, we talk about All Hallow’s Day, the day after Halloween.

The words of Jesus shine with a graceful brilliance among the broken fragments of this world.

We give thanks to the Lord for His victory over death and the grave both for those who are now with Him in glory and for ourselves even as we press forward in faithfulness awaiting the Day when our eyes will see Him.

Even though All Saints is a day for remembering the dead, it is not a day of mourning.

The emphasis for All Saints Sunday is not on the saints, but the Sanctifier, Jesus Christ.

Jesus breaks through our barriers in His beatitudes. He shatters our conceptions of the blessed life and opens the Kingdom of God to all people.

John’s excitement invites his readers to lay hold of this above all else: The lavish love of God.

His kingdom is not one of force and might for our exploitation and his gain, but one of his patience and long-suffering for our benefit.

We have the freedom to joyfully participate in neighborhood fun with the love of our neighbor in mind.
