“The Unforced Rhythms of Grace”

Such a beautiful word, it is.

I’ll give you a hint. The title of this message notwithstanding, the word is not “grace,” beautiful as that word may be.

In this PODCAST, you’ll hear all about it.

Enjoy!!!

And thank you for listening, and for sharing this message!!! It means the world to me.

The Weight of Your Sin (and Mine)!

Once again, while I am away speaking (at my final conference of the summer), I have not left you Podcast-less!

Welcome to Decision Night at Hartland Christian Camp.

As you will hear in the PODCAST, even though this message was not delivered at Safe Haven, it is the perfect followup to last week’s discussion of Passover.

I mentioned last week, and will remind you now, that before His arrest, Jesus had to keep a divine appointment in the Garden of Gethsemane. I didn’t explain that then; I do explain it now.

If you want to know what it meant for Jesus to bear the weight of your sin (and mine), this is THE picture of exactly what that meant.

Gethsemane

Easter is almost upon us. Consequently, for the next four weeks, I would like to take you on a virtual tour of four places that factored most prominently in Jesus’ final hours.

In this PODCAST, we will visit the Garden of Gethsemane together.

From there, we will move in the coming weeks to the house of the High Priest, the Antonia Fortress, and finally–on Easter weekend–we will walk together on the stones of the Via Dolorosa.

I will be privileged to serve as your humble, awestruck tour guide. My prayer is that with every step we take, we will again and again be reminded that the Bible is God’s written record of…

Real people who lived in real places, who had real experiences, all of which point to a real God.

Knocked Down, But NEVER Knocked Out

As you will hear in this PODCAST, Peter will write this extraordinary sentence:

“In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.”

Trials, I will remind you, that cost Peter’s readers everything.

How did they do it? How was it possible for them—How is it possible for us?—to rejoice when they/we are experiencing the crushing weight of heavy-hearted emotion?

You are only 45 minutes away from knowing the answer.
