Of Snakes And Crosses

The harshness of the comments spoken was only thinly veiled. The angry words spoken were like painful, barbed darts – ...read more

The Lesson Of The Wine

Contributed by Christopher Roberts on Oct 29, 2003

The little things in the Bible are easy to overlook, yet it all has meaning. In the miracles at the wedding in Cana, the 240,000 servings of wine can teach us about the difference between the Law and the Spirit, God’s Grace and God’s character.

I love weddings. I have only had the occasion to perform two weddings and those were both great and special occasions for me. I had so much fun. And weddings are supposed to be fun.
