    The miracle of feeding the 5,000 underlines God’s grace as he provides for all our needs.

So, we are called to prioritize – to convert our activities into a sort of Top 10 list -- picking ...read more

Apparently there is something significant here that the 4 authors want us to see. After a particularly intense period of ministry, Jesus had ...read more
