The church Jesus started is a hospital for sinners - not a hospice for saints. In this story found in Luke 5, we find Jesus calling Levi (aka Matthew) -- a tax collector - the worst of the worst. The call comes before the cleanup. Contact does not equal compromise. The kingdom advances through invitation, not isolation. , , , , , ,

Whoever is without sin, cast the first stone. What happens when the one being in the universe who has the right to throw the first stone... Doesn't? In this story, we wrestle with judgment, condemnation, consequences, mercy and grace. Mercy triumphs over judgment. John 8:3-11. , , , ,

What do rocks have to do with faith? Today we are having a little fun with one of the strangest recurring themes in the Bible: ROCKS. Altars built from stones. Water from rocks. Giant-killing rocks. Temple rocks. Empty tomb rocks.

Again and again, people try to build something permanent out of stone... and again and again God keeps moving beyond what they expected.
And the rocks cry out a warning: Don't make faith more about protecting structures than discovering life. , , , ,
