    Interesting insight regarding Nicodemus’ visit and its implication for us

    We read and hear so much about covert ops these days. People trying to hide what they’re doing from those around them for personal, political, or economic gain do things in secret that they wouldn’t do openly. Nicodemus was a man on a quest. He flew in the face of popular opinion in order to learn ...read more

    Born again??? What on earth does that mean?

    John 3:1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council. 2 He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs you are doing if God were not with him." 3 In reply ...read more

    In the cover of night, hood over his head, Nick sneaks out to rendezvous with Jesus. What do we learn from this meeting between Jesus and Nicodemus?

    NICK-AT-NIGHT JOHN 3:1-21 It’s nighttime. Darkness has fallen like a blanket on the city. A thick fog hangs in the air. A man nervously glances at his watch. 6:30pm. It’s safe to leave now.

    Jesus challenged Nicodemus and us because He challenges our pride and status, or because we think that all we have done is now useless. The human Jesus shows us how to live without being uptight.

    Two men standing in a garden to talk; so much alike and yet so different. Two men, with much on their minds, with eternal issues at stake, and yet with very human concerns too. Two men, very different and yet brothers, much the same. Two men standing in a garden to take one another’s measure. ...read more

    Have you ever felt like giving up? Have you ever wondered, even in what you try to do for God, whether it is doing any good? Let God be the judge of that!

    To experience new life, even in the senior years, means using old knowledge to gain new knowledge; to set aside pride in order to learn; and to be fully open to Christ.

We had commented that he didn’t like change; he could easily be "all shook up" when something didn’t go his way. I asked the other person in this conversation, "How long have you known John? Has he ...read more

    Being accused of acting like a child is a major insult but not from Jesus. Jesus wants more people that act like children.

    -In our culture, saying that someone is acting like a child is not really a compliment -We are always telling our children to grow up, to act their age -In the immortal words of that great philosopher, the artist formerly known as Prince, “Act your age not your shoe size.” {PAUSE} -There’s a new ...read more
