All Nailed Down

The authorities thought they had Jesus all nailed down - dead and buried for good. 

They were wrong.

Lord, Remember Me

One of the thieves crucified with Jesus said, "Lord, remember me when you come into your kingdom." We, temporary, transitory beings that we are, need to make that same request of Jesus.

Turn on a Dime

On Palm Sunday it looked like all the momentum was going Jesus' way. He was entering Jerusalem triumphantly; the crowds were welcoming as a conquering king. But everything turned very quickly, so by the end of the week everyone had turned on him or deserted him, leaving him to die alone. How can we handle life when things go against us?

Present Tense God

Too often we prefer "timeless truths" and "principles" to the work of God; the former we can file away for the future when it's convenient, the latter can pass us by if we're unprepared or unwilling to receive.
