    Mary Magdalene was an empty cup and an empty cross and empty tomb filled her up. And if you are an empty cup this morning, let me tell you how an empty cross and an empty tomb can fill you up.

It’s hard to help someone who doesn’t want help … difficult to heal someone who doesn’t think they’re sick … impossible to fill a cup that’s already full ... impossible to teach a mind ...read more

    Preaching is not the task of “making” scripture come alive; rather it’s “drawing out the life” that’s already in it.

And there is no creature ...read more
