    I honestly don’t know if Jesus is glorified through crackers and grape juice. And I wonder what he must think when we come together, go through our little religious ritual and leave with the same me-first mentality that we came in with.

    Today I want to look at the different viewpoints of the last supper from the 4 gospels. Traditionally only 3 of the gospels are credited with recognizing the last supper, Matthew, Mark and Luke. Let’s look at those: Matthew 26:20-30 20When it was evening, Jesus sat down at the table with the ...read more

     | 10,235 views

    When Jesus washed feet, he was really washing hearts!

    The story of Jesus washing His disciples feet is only found in John. The synoptic record the story of the dispute between the disciples as to who is the greatest. John does not record that story; instead he tells the story of Jesus washing his disciples’ feet. The story is a counter to the ...read more
