The Glory of God

As we go into this season for one more year, as we dream about the gifts we will be able to give, and stress about the ones we won't. As we hustle and stress on a treadmill that just seems to get faster, remember what this season is really trying to do. It's calling us to see and treat the ones around us better, despite how they look or what resources they bring to the table. Because that's the way Jesus did. Because that's the glory of God.

The Solidarity of God

You can keep your Jingle Bells, and Frosty the Snowman’s, I don’t care much for Sleigh Ride’s or having a White Christmas (I do after all live in West Texas). Because my favorite Christmas song of all time has got to be “O Holy Night” It’s one of the best hymn’s that has ever been written. [...]
