Take a closer look at the photo above. Do you see the haziness? I wondered, “Do they have a smoke machine here at Pursuit?” No. They do not. That cloud that you see is supernatural. It is the cloud of God’s glory.

What does Revival look like? . . .

How will you be remembered? Do you think about that? I do.

Mary of Bethany is remembered for her extravagant worship of Jesus. She broke . . .

 Passover, the feast at which Jesus was crucified and rose again, begins tomorrow.  So, this seems like a good time to confess that for years I thought that Jesus cursing the fig tree was random. It seemed totally unrelated to the narrative. I’m embarrassed by this because . . .

Millions of decisions and details must be considered when building a house: which floor plan; where to build; what materials; who to hire; how to pay for it. The list seems endless. Even just the furnishing and decorating phase can be overwhelming. Which sink and stove and other fixtures to choose? What flooring and furniture will coordinate well together? Whew! Building a house is a huge undertaking.

Now imagine that you are building a house for God . . .

As we celebrate Passover and Easter, I am praying to be like Mary (sister of Martha and Lazarus). Mary did all she could to honor Jesus. I want that to be true of me! The story of her lavish devotion to Jesus is recorded in three of the four gospels.

I am praying for my own story . . .
