Love of Neighbor (178)
  1. Of course, "I'm offended" is shouted out on every corner of the internet, and we become immune to that claim. But what happens when there is genuine offense?
  2. As I look back, I choose to remember her as a soul redeemed by Christ.
  3. Unprompted, without any warning, for no reason at all, without any instigation say, "I love you." And that will wash over your parents like a beautiful absolution.
  4. Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and unto God what is God's. But hold on . . . what about "Give to my neighbor what is my neighbor's"?
  5. We take a look at 1 Timothy 5 and how we should respect all in the church, but especially those who are older than us and those who are destitute.
  6. We assert, we herald, the truth about God becoming King of the world in and through Jesus of Nazareth alone. It is our public announcement.
  7. Gretchen and Katie talk about what happens when we focus on our pietism in ways that often hurt our neighbors. How does this happen?
  8. The reason that God’s commandments are not burdensome is that Jesus has fulfilled them.
  9. The love mentioned in 1 John 4:15-21 fourteen times (!) is a love that needs no apology but is determined at all times to sacrifice for the other.
  10. Faith is like a horse with blinders because it only beholds God’s promise. It is obsessed with what God has already said.
  11. Christian mercy should not seek its own. It must be round, and open its eyes and look at all alike, friend and foe, as our heavenly Father does.
  12. I trust that because of the gospel, God will continue to mend what I, in my sin, continue to break.
