Do you talk to yourself? Some of us do it out loud (which can be so embarrassing sometimes), but almost all of us do it internally.

it’s so hard to come to grips with the demons on the inside when we’ve been pretending they are not there.

It is in the downward path that we actually become more of who we were destined to become. It’s in surrender that we find love.

Peter had a long history of telling Jesus “no.” Well, it was actually more than that. It was telling Jesus, “Never!”

Today we read a simple poem, a simple prayer, a simple blessing on our day.

We’ve been thinking about the role of faith this week - of how Peter put his faith in Christ. And yet, as we’ve seen in other places this week, the emphasis has always been love over faith.

Today we look at how the early church leader Paul answered that question, “Who do you say I am?” The answer might surprise you.

Jesus doesn’t hold back asking us the very direct question: Who do you say I am? But there may be a way to answer it with heart more than thoughts.

Everyone out there has opinions about Jesus, which is just fine. What’s tricky is when those opinions have a massive influence on you.

As followers of Jesus we have come to realize that that certainty, not doubt, is not the opposite of faith

It’s strange to think that one of the prophecies of the Messiah was that he would be an outcast…

Today we look at the front end and the back end of prayer - our experience and God’s.

Let’s all be honest about the fact that for whatever reason, some of our prayers don’t seem to get through

There’s something about crisis that wakes us up and helps us start looking around for where in the world God is.

As we’ve reflected this week on how our journeys twist and turn, today we listen in to a poet.

So much of the spiritual journey is just saying yes.

Today is an exercise for the imagination…

How are you at wandering with your feet, or are you so rigidly focused that you’d never dare stray off the path?

Expanding our views is always painful.
