LOVE + SERVE + GIVE

The author of Hebrews urges us to shed anything hindering our spiritual race, not just sin. Often, these aren't sinful acts but comforts that keep us from fixing our eyes on Jesus. What's holding you back? #FaithJourney #SpiritualGrowth

Amidst the chaos and impending suffering, Jesus remains calm, at peace, and in control. His serenity stems from perfect submission to the Father's will, a plan set in motion since creation. #Faith #Peace #Jesus

The cross itself holds no power. The power lies in the man who died on it. This isn't just cool; it's awe-inspiring. God sent His Son to die in humiliation and shame for us. #Faith #Inspiration

Is the joy of knowing Jesus so pent up in your soul that it feels like fire? You have to share it! My prayer is that His Word becomes a fire in your heart, too powerful to contain. #Faith #ChristianLiving

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

Perfection isn't a prerequisite for ministry, nor does it disqualify you from experiencing grace. Jesus restored Peter's faith and recommissioned him, not sidelined him. His calling remained. #Ministry #Faith #ChristianLife

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

We are flawed, yet more loved and accepted in Jesus than we ever dared hope. Encountering Him doesn't highlight our sin, but banishes shame. Peter's joy in seeing Jesus led to utter elation, jumping into the water to meet Him. #Faith #Hope #Love

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

Responding to Jesus with shame? It begs the question: do you truly know Him? And if you're not responding with joy, do you really know Him? #FaithJourney #SpiritualGrowth

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

Discover the profound joy found in surrendering your heart to Jesus. It's a path to peace and a life of worship. Ready to experience His love? #FaithJourney #SpiritualGrowth

God sees and knows you intimately. From Nathaniel's hidden thoughts to Zacchaeus's public life, His gaze is personal and profound. You are never unseen. #Faith #GodsLove #Christianity

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

Jesus intentionally stopped for Zacchaeus, a tax collector who climbed a tree just to see Him. A powerful reminder that seeking those often overlooked can lead to profound encounters. #Faith #Encounter #BibleStory

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

A preacher answered God's call to reach hardened NYC teens, focusing on Nicky Cruz, a violent gang member who transformed into a powerful Christian leader. A testament to faith's power to overcome the impossible. #Inspiration #FaithJourney #NickyCruz

Martha's audacity to scold Jesus, demanding he tell Mary to help her with chores. She questions Jesus's inaction, revealing a relatable frustration of being left to do all the work. Have you ever felt this way? #Relatable #FaithJourney

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

Martha is overwhelmed by her emotions, while Mary finds peace and focus in God's presence, even with distractions. Which path will you choose? #FaithJourney #SpiritualGrowth

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

Martha's busyness wasn't the real problem. It was her attitude and anxieties, which pulled her away from her true calling: to be a welcoming host to Jesus. #Faith #Reflection

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

Are you holding back, or do you belong totally to Him? Mary is our model disciple. May our love for Him be undignified, our worship unrestrained, and our outpouring extravagant. #Faith #Discipleship

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

Mary knew her time with Jesus was fleeting, a precious moment others couldn't grasp. This understanding shaped her devotion. Some see just a pause, she saw an eternity. #Faith #Devotion #Jesus

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

Mary's act of anointing Jesus, with her hair, is a profound sacrifice of personal dignity and honor. It's a powerful symbol of devotion that transcends societal expectations. #Faith #Devotion

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

The precious scent of nard, anointing Jesus's body and garments, remained with him even through the suffering of crucifixion. Imagine the comfort of that beautiful fragrance during his final moments. #Christianity #Faith #Jesus

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

True influence and belonging in the kingdom aren't about status or personal gain. It's about selfless service, lifting others up, and embodying Christ's love by serving Jesus and his church, especially the vulnerable. #ChristianLiving #ServantLeadership

[EFMC @MethodistFree]

Jesus brings strength, comfort, and perseverance. To enter the Kingdom of Heaven, a feast unlike any other, humility is key. It's required to partake and to feel its power. #Faith #Humility #SpiritualGrowth
