Preaching (2168)
  1. Those whose lives matter to Jesus show others how they, too, matter. This is part of the Christian’s evangelical witness, to value the people in our world who feel like they have no value.
  2. The Spirit is not the endpoint of the sermon, but the means by which this name is delivered and confessed.
  3. God’s grace embraces us in the same manner as parents’ attachment to their children instinctively causes them to scoop even their misbehaving little ones up into their arms.
  4. Jesus knew what was coming, so He spent four chapters in John’s gospel preparing them. Then, immediately before leading them to the Garden of Gethsemane, He prayed.
  5. When Peter says to resist him, firm in your faith, he is not sending you out to do battle on your own. He is locating you. You are baptized into Christ.
  6. “Rolling the dice” or rather “casting lots” has an interesting place in the life of the Church from the Bible.
