Man, this is beautiful. A life adorning the gospel.
Listen to what @StevenBartlett—host of one of the world’s most popular podcasts—says to Christian apologist John Lennox.
Even a few minutes of Bible reading, where you gaze upon the glory of the Lord, and a few minutes of prayer, where you open your heart to him, has the power to transform your day.
Because of our Father’s great love for us in Jesus, and because of the Spirit’s sealing and indwelling, each of us can seek to be the chief repenter, quickest forgiver, and main encourager in our relationships. Of course it’s not easy… but it’s truly our calling.
The dance of life finds its beginnings in grief......Here a completely new way of living is revealed. It is the way in which pain can be embraced, not out of a desire to suffer, but in the knowledge that something new will be born in the pain.
- Henri Nouwen
Only half of the pastor’s work is to gather the people together for worship. The other half is to send them back to their daily tasks equipped to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world. If we forget this second part, the other can be positively dangerous.
“If we all roll up our love step-by-step into a snowball of impact, there will be avalanches of change Robert Church could only dream of.” - John Carroll https://t.co/b0iR5w7WVH

Christians do not go through the battles of history as the master race. They go through them as the servant people, looking up to the Father who is alone the Lord of history, accepting his disposition of events as the context of their obedience.

Death for Christians is the entrance into a greater endless love relationship, meaning reflection only makes it easier to face whats coming. That means the worse thing life can bring can only usher you into something infinitely better.
