    It was a story neatly tucked between the jostling, pushing crowd meeting JESUS at the seaside and the urgency of Jairus’pleadings... and then,that infamous word;"WHO TOUCHED ME?" May our longing and need for GOD let not just pass us by,today!

    John uses familial, language (e.g., children, young men, and fathers) to talk about the fellowship/koinonia, the church. These are terms to describe Christian maturity. The church is energized by a flow of those in each stage of maturity.

Yet, John calls us back home, to our foundation, to the fundamental matters of our faith. God uses John to help the church repair that which is broken, to correct the twisted ...read more
