    This short talk given at a Communion service during Holy Week asks three questions: What must we reject, how must we run and where must we look?

    The New Testament scholar Raymond Brown wrote this: “Using vivid athletic imagery the author [of Hebrews] tells his readers what they must reject, how they must run and where they must look.” 1: What we must reject: “Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles” ...read more

    Because of the clutter and the noise in our lives, we often fail to see what Jesus does and can do for us. It seems as if we are constantly grasping, but never grabbing hold of that which changes us for the better.

    He walked on water which shows us that nothing can separates us from Him. He made that water into wine which shows us He can create something out of nothing. He ate and drank with people that we would never want to be caught around which shows us that we are all deserving of even the smallest of ...read more

    Despising The Shame

    Shame is one of the most painful experiences in our lives - dealing with it is crucial and the key is looking toward Jesus who both bore our shame and rejected shame that he was not guilty of.

    Looking to Jesus is not something natural for us. Normally we don’t look to Jesus but we look to other things. As you know we used to live in Poland. We rented a house with the most beautiful view of the mountains from our living room and bedroom. It was spectacular! But one year the field ...read more
