names
He loves each one of us like there is only one of us to love (when God whisper your name)
jesus greed portfolios
Greed is not defined by what something costs; it is measured by what it costs you. If anything costs you your faith or your family, the price is too high. Such is the point Jesus makes in the parable of the portfolio.
dog car long
As long as you are stationary, no one will complain. Dogs don't bark at parked cars.
jesus stars sleep
Jesus humbled himself. He went from commanding angels to sleeping in the straw. From holding stars to clutching Mary's finger. The palm that held the universe took the nail of a soldier. Why? Because that's what love does. It puts the beloved before itself.

Jesus took your punishment, and God gave you credit for Jesus' perfection.

I was raised in the greatest of homes... just a really great dad, and I miss him so much... he was a good man, a real simple man... Very faithful, always loved my mom, always provided for the kids, and just a lot of fun.

Sentences are like just caught fish. Spunky today, stinky tomorrow.
shadow-of-death giving people
One of the greatest gifts we can give people is the hope that their death is nothing to fear - you know, not that it has no fear in it, but the promise of scripture is that God will lead us through the valley of the shadow of death.
honesty people our-relationship
Honesty and vulnerability endear us to people; they don't endanger us in our relationship.
bridges understanding needs
When you teach on a familiar text, you're capitalizing on common knowledge. When you teach on an unfamiliar text, you're having to build a bridge of understanding, and we need to do that as well.
prayer struggle answers
God is using my struggle. My struggle is the answer to the prayer.
