    The character of both John and Jesus is one that compels us to give from our heart rather than from our excess. This is more than money, but a life of service.

    On this “Baptism of Jesus” Sunday we might very well ask what John asked. Why did Jesus need to be baptized? Like John it is also good for us to see our need for baptism by Jesus.

Saying the morally right thing at the socially wrong time. John was the one who called the people who came to hear ...read more
