    The Bible says you can open up your innermost thoughts and just spill them out on the ground before Jesus. He’s not going to look at you like, “Oh gross!” He’s not going to laugh at you or mock you.

    The transfiguration reveals that Jesus is powerful (he is God!), primary (he must come first), personable (he cares about us), and passionate (he desires all to be saved). God wants us, like the disciples present, to "listen to him!"

    Matthew 17:1-9 Opening Our Eyes to God’s Glory Do you ever get the sense that you take God for granted? Some of us grew up in homes where going to Sunday worship was expected of us. We grew up always knowing the love of God from an early age. And perhaps we’re spoiled a little. We don’t remember ...read more
