“What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.” Following Jesus is often unclear and scary. As Jesus was preparing to leave his disciples they had lots of questions about what was next. Jesus didn’t give them a step-by-step plan to follow. Rather he gave them an example of what it meant to be his disciple, of what it…

In this story we see Jesus’ humanity and divinity come together as he and his friends stare death in the face. But Jesus is not too quick to “save the day.” Instead, he sits with Mary and Martha in their heartbreak. Sometimes it feels like Jesus has let us down. What can we learn about pain and disappointment from Jesus’ meeting with Mary, Martha, …

Jesus meets a man born blind and miraculously heals him. The man is later interrogated about who had done this act on the Sabbath. The man could only answer by saying, “One thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see.” The man’s answer infuriated the religious leaders and they began a debate about who Jesus was. Jesus quickly revealed that …

Jesus’ words are often difficult to receive. Jesus’ words often revealed people’s true motives and allegiances. But Jesus was ok with people not following him. He didn’t hedge on the truth or beg people to follow him. How do Jesus’ words challenge our motives and allegiances when we meet him in our real lives?…

In John’s Gospel Jesus meets people all across the spectrum of faith, from religious leaders like Nicodemus to outcasts like the women and the well. Jesus seems to be harsh with this woman, calling out her sin. But what if Jesus was doing a deeper work? What if he was actually meeting her in her deepest place of shame and in turn offering her heali…

Nicodemus, a Jewish religious leader, came to Jesus by night. Nicodemus was curious about Jesus and who he was and where he came from. But Jesus did not give him easy answers. Jesus spoke about water and Spirit and being “born again.” What did this all mean for Nicodemus, for the people of Israel, and for us today? John 3:1-21 (ESV) Now there was a…

Last Sunday we got an image of how Satan messes with the harvest. In this parable he isn’t snatching the seed before he takes root he is sowing seeds of destruction – weeds. Many times we wonder why God just doesn't just get rid of it all but to pull the weed is to pull out the wheat. So evil and good co-exist and grow together until the end when e…

This is a fairly well-known Bible story that is used to teach us to focus on Jesus. But we don’t often address what is going on in our hearts that makes it so difficult for us to “choose the good portion” which is Jesus. Maybe we have placed our worth in the hustle and maybe Jesus is asking us to surrender the hustle of life to him as we follow him…
