    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 been talking about a mutual friend. We had laughed a little at how rigid he was, how staid. 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?

    Moles Or Souls? Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 21, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,113 views

    Some of us choose darkness, like moles burrowing into the ground. Our behavior becomes obsessively demonic, for which there are consequences. The Gospel calls us to be what God has made us to be, creatures living in the light, with passion.

A mole is a little creature that lives out its life underground, in the darkness, endlessly burrowing to and fro and making ...read more

    Our text records an interview between Jesus and a man named Nicodemus. Nicodemus is mentioned three times in the New Testament, and each reference mentions he came to Jesus under the cover of night (John 3:1; 7:50; 19:39). Therefore, we could call him o
