@BethMooreLPM Who do you say that I am? I love his questions and this one drives my heart like no other-and has for 6 decades now. I never tire of pondering it.
@matt_redman Love this Matt. You have always done this well. Years ago God asked me to write a book about Jesus that took me out of the equation. It was the hardest thing I ever did but also the most transformative.
Prayer is not a place to be good, it is a place to be honest.
Prayer is not a place to perform, it is a place to be present.
Prayer is not a place to be right, it is a place to be known.
From new book 'When Prayer Becomes Real' by @kylestrobel & John Coe
I highly recommend it.
We are losing a generation—not because they are secularists, but because they believe we are. What this demands is not a rebranding, but a repentance—meaning, as the Bible does, a turnaround. https://t.co/wYcaY6AQXp
#Easter means that love wins and death dies, hearts heal and tears dry, fears flee and faith flies, pain ends and hopes arise. When I came to believe that Jesus Christ is alive and well in our world it changed my whole life forever.
LENT 40: But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb....Jesus said to her, “Mary....Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers ...Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord” John 20:11,17-18
LENT 39: See from his head, his hands, his feet, sorrow and love flow mingled down. Did ere such love and sorrow meet, or thorns compose so rich a crown?
LENT 38: Forbid it Lord that I should boast, save in the death of Christ my Lord. All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his blood.
