Grief, for Christians, is met with honesty and a confident expectation of God's comfort, drawing strength from Jesus, our guide in sorrow and our source of unwavering grace.
The Lord has given us a meal both to remember his work and as a means of grace, therefore we should come hungry and ready to partake in it.
In light of the cross, we are to reflect God's love and justice in our relationships.
The message of the cross, while seemingly foolish, transforms the way we think about God and ourselves.
Jesus preserves His people, even in the most severe challenges and trials.
True strength is not found in ourselves, but in our dependence upon Christ, the perfect priest/king.
To welcome means to receive with gladness, with longing and anticipation, and to treat as a brother or sister in the family.
Christ's welcome brings the dead to life, gives strength to the weak, and hope to the desperate.
