Death and Life (22)
  1. True religion or true faith is heavenly. It understands that mankind’s only hope has to come from outside of itself.
  2. The central message of Christianity is not a worldview, a way of life, or a program for personal or societal change; it is a person and the message of the cross.
  3. The Lion of Judah, Christ the King, Jesus of Nazareth, will not be away from us for one night.
  4. This great victory, the true defeat of death, I receive not by my thinking, willing, or working, but simply by believing.
  5. Bathed in the waters of baptism, you are placed in God's path of totality, a path he won for each and every one of us.
  6. Jesus continues to do the same for me and for you as he did for his disciples. He still shows up for us. He still speaks his peace to us.
  7. The seemingly small, the particular, the previously overlooked, magnifies in importance.
  8. We know that death does not have the last word in Christ.
  9. May you believe, in this thin-line world, that this Jesus is for you, not against you.
  10. This week we are taking a closer look at 1 Corinthians 15:14-19 and what we lose if Christ has not been raised from the dead.
  11. Ash Wednesday's purpose is not to motivate our resolve to redouble our efforts to do better.
  12. Rightly distinguishing between law and gospel, as Paul helps us see in 2 Corinthians 3, is, quite literally, a matter of life and death.
