    When our work proceeds out of a devotion to Jesus, we will not be without our critics.

In Luke 10:39 she is sitting at the feet of Jesus. In John 11:32 Mary is prostrated at His feet. In John 12:3 she is ...read more

    Are you tight with your treasure? You’ll be tight with your heart as well. It’s the age old battle that we all fight… the battle between selfishness and generosity. Truly, it is more blessed to give generously than it is to receive.

    The Generous Life John 12:1-8 Six days before the Passover, Jesus arrived at Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. 2 Here a dinner was given in Jesus' honor. Martha served, while Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with him. 3 Then Mary took about a pint ...read more

Wouldn’t it just be easier to ignore it? Of course, if we ignore it… …we loose the incredible insight ...read more
