As we gather with the saints this week, let us take a moment to reflect on the importance of this occasion. Jesus came to Earth as a physical manifestation of God's love. God loved us so much that he gave us his son. And He didn't stop there!

The Hope of His Calling
We are the Church: a gathering of people who have been called out. Although the calling is individual, when we receive it we become part of the assembly. I pray that for you today that you will know what you are called from and what you are called to. That calling is the source of hope, both for now and for eternity.
God’s Gift Wrapping
The church is a great big collection of gifts. Each one is unique. Each has its own wrapping. You have to deal with the package to get the gift. It will be worth it.
Vision or Pipe Dream?
When God gives you direction for your life or ministry, write it down. Until you write it down, it's nothing more than a pipe dream. It’s devoid of substance. Writing forces you to express ideas in a coherent manner. If you can't write it, you don't understand it. You won't be able to effectively share it with others.
Join the Choir?
Psalm 150 concludes the Book of Psalms with the command to "Let everything that has breath praise the LORD!" When we do that, special things happen. I'm inviting you to join the "Everything That Has Btreath Choir." If you're breathing, you're qualified.

It's Father’s Day. If anybody should be grateful for having a good father, it’s us. People have all kinds of reactions to the idea of “father” based on their own experience. My earthly dad was a nice enough guy, but when I found out how good my Heavenly Father is, it blew me away!
Sunday Supernaturally: Holy Spirit, Guide!
As you cruise through your day, pay attention. God will move you to the right spot, talking to the right person, with just the right word. Maybe even as you go into church today. You are on a mission. He has a plan. Follow it.
Sunday Supernaturally: A Lystra Kind of Day
A story in the Bible is not just "a bible story." God put it there for a reason. What can I learn? Does my relationship with God look like the one in this story? It's meant to be inspirational and aspirational, and transformational. Let's go to Lystra.
Sunday Supernaturally: Maybe it’s Time
I pray for a great revival one more time before I leave this earth. This is a story about a place where God moved and dramatically changed lives. Maybe it's our turn.
Sunday Supernaturally: God Knows Best
God uses whom He chooses. He is not limited by their failures, nor impressed by their resume. He can use you! Let Him.
