Rethinking Jesus: Unveiling the Surprising, Untamed Side of Christ

Leviticus 2-3; Matthew 20; Psalm 116 I don’t have much commentary today! Sometimes, the Word must do its work. It is doing its work. Do you remember where you were when God first found you? Do you recall how immersed in your filth, how mired in your own hell you were when He came looking […]

Aligning with God’s Will: Understanding Divine Preferences and Plans

Exodus 22-23; Matthew 14; Psalm 110 Everything about the New Testament example we have in Jesus is impossible to emulate in the flesh.
