The customs of the day allowed this woman to show her total devotion to Jesus and is in contrast to Simon’s refusal of Him. Hers is an example of how we should approach the master.

We remember His resurrection, and most people recognise that Easter is a special day to the Christians. But when we talk about Pentecost – ...read more

God stands at the end of our rabbit trails when we have exhausted all human options

You’ve probably heard the phrase, “going down a rabbit trail.” Wild rabbits don’t like to saunter down Main Street; they prefer bolting down trails leading deep into the woods.
