We may not see the connection between the name Jesus and the phrase save his people from their sins, but Joseph would have. He was familiar with the Hebrew language.

Jesus will press his thumb against the cheek of humanity and wipe away all tears.
Max Lucado
Our kids were God's kids first... We tend to forget this fact, regarding our children as our children, as though we have the final say in their health and welfare. We don't. All people are God's people, including the small people who sit at our tables.

The strength of a story is that it stays with people and it gives an opportunity for that story to connect with people where the Holy Spirit intends for it to do so.

Praise is the highest occupation of any being

We’re grateful when all is well, but can we say the same on disastrous days?

[ Christianity], in and of itself, sets itself apart inherently, and so, for somebody to say, Well it just seems to me like you can pick between all these religions and still have the same thing. Its kind of like somebody saying, You could pick between 80 bananas and one apple and say you have a banana. You cant call that apple a banana.

Baptism is bowing before the Father and letting him do his work.

I think we live in slavery to fear. Most people don't have an answer to the death question and really don't even have a philosophy. That is a puzzle to me. I think even if I was not a Christian, I would want to at least have a personal solution to the death question. Otherwise, death is just a frightening thing.

I think it's noteworthy that the Almighty didn't act high and mighty. The Holy One wasn't holier-than-thou. The One who knew it all wasn't a know-it-all. The One who made the stars didn't keep his head in them. The One who owns all the stuff of earth never strutted it.

Thats usually what I gravitate to, I read The Perfect Storm, then I read Into Thin Air .

Initially, when I first became a Christian and got into ministry, my thought was that God existed to make my life better and to take me to Heaven. Now I realize that it is not about me at all. It is all about God and that He did this to display His plan to restore the Earth to the Garden of Eden state.

See your enemies, not as God's failures, but as God's projects.

There is a rawness and a wonder to life. Pursue it. Hunt for it. Sell out to get it. Don't listen to the whines of those who have settled for a second-rate life and want you to do the same so they won't feel guilty. Your goal is not to live long it's to live.
Max Lucado
That's what I'm hoping we can all do, is come together in a spirit of prayer.

God has work for you to do.

Be less about protecting any type of identity affiliated to a country or even ethnic background. Be more about the fact that we're here for a short time and Heaven is going to be a rainbow of people, multiculture, every generation.

If you're feeling pain, express that to the Lord. If you're feeling worried, express those worries. One passage that gives me comfort is in Psalms, Chapter 11, verse 3, it reads, When all that is good falls apart, what can good people do? That's really the question of the day.

Live in such a way that the world will be glad you did.

In the pulpit, I really feel like I'm in my sweet spot, I'm in my stride.
Max Lucado
God knows just the place where you'll be placed. He has a barren living room in desperate need of warmth and joy. A corner of the world needs some color. He selected you with that place in mind.
