Jesus teaches us a simple but powerful way to pray.

Jesus invites us into His Kingdom where we have the opportunity to live authentic lives through Spiritual Disciplines and Discipleship.

Jesus talks about sex, not because it's bad, but because it's sacred.  Sex and sexuality are intended to image and reflect something so much greater than just a physical act or something to be consumed for self.

Our kingdoms tend to only care about and focus on the actions of the hands.  Jesus cares about what happens in our hearts, because what happens on the inside will always make its way to the outside.

Jesus makes living in a new kingdom possible.  When we shift from old patterns and old ways of life into Jesus' kingdom way of living, we can expect to stand out and be unique.

We find true fullness in life when we believe in an empty tomb.

Jesus calls Himself "the good shepherd"...but what does that really mean?  Shepherds in Jesus' day were some of the fiercest and most fearless people on the planet.  

The pursuit of being pure in heart means that we root all of our "being" and all of our "doing" in Jesus alone.

Mercy is all about what we offer and how we treat people that are hurting, have made a mess of their lives, are in the wrong, and especially those who have wronged us.

Being hungry and thirsty for righteousness is all about what we desire.  The question is, do we deisre what comes only from God or do we deisre to try and do it ourselves?
