Stumbling Stone Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Aug 11, 2013

What God Is Looking For…

Contributed by Thomas Bowen on May 7, 2009

After seeing the disciples of Jesus hiding in the upper room it is hard to imagine that they had any vision of their own. That is why it is important to understand how God sees things and what he is watching for.

Last week we looked at the slowness of Easter’s arrival for the disciples. They were locked away in a room. They were full of fear and doubts. Jesus appears, it would be easy to claim that that fixed everything for the disciples. But it did not; we know that if we read through the different ...read more
