January 24, 2021 - Throw a Party!
Have you every messed up? Like really done something to hurt someone? Then, when you tried to apologize, they accepted the apology but then treated you like you were lower than the scum on the bottom of their shoe? Made you earn your way back into their good graces? A lot of us have had that experience. It’s probably why we expect God to treat us the same way. But here’s the deal, God plays by a different playbook that we do – one where the prominent plays include grace and mercy and parties! |

January 17, 2021 - The Crazy Love of God
You’ve heard the saying: If it’s too good to be true it probably is. Life teaches us that there is usually a catch to these too-good-to-be-true offers that come our way. That’s probably why we are hesitant to believe the too-good-to-be-true claims of God’s grace. There’s got to be a catch. But that’s not the way God works. There’s no earning a fresh start, there’s no making our past right. There’s only the crazy love of God. |

January 10, 2021 - Green Coats & Dry Bones
Have you ever heard the adage: you can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube? Wouldn’t it be nice if we could put the toothpaste that was 2020 back in the tube and have a do-over? Wouldn’t it be nice if we could put the tooth-paste of our personal lives back in the tube? Unfortunately, life doesn’t work like that. We can’t go back and do it over. The toothpaste is well and truly out of the tube. What we can do is place our lives in God’s hands and let him do what only God can do. |
