    When a cross or trial comes our way we’re often left wondering like Peter, "What was He thinking when He allowed this to come on me?" However, Jesus’ own cross story helps us to see that in the midst of it all, He’s still thinking of you and me.

    Pentecost 15 A Matthew 16:21-26 What Was He Thinking? 09/01/02 There’s a television commercial currently running that shows a guy going off a tall waterfall in a kayak. He’s screaming all the way to the bottom as he bounces off rocks along the canyon wall and finishes his plunge into the waters ...read more
