Reflecting on Grace by Celebration Bible Church

Nicodemus comes to Jesus with everything in nice little boxes, but leaves this encounter with a reminder that - no matter how much your know - you cannot manipulate or orchestrate your way to God.

The wilderness can sometimes be scary, but it is often used by God to see and shape the hearts of His people.

When Jesus was transfigured in the presence Peter, James and John, these disciples experienced the powerful and gentle multifaceted presence of God.

While it may sound like Jesus is adding more difficulty to the ancient Hebrew Law, as we listen closely we see that he's actually offering a type of freedom that can only come from stepping away from a 'checklist morality.'

Jesus calls his disciples to take on a righteousness that is greater than the religious experts of his day. Yet, by learning to take on his light and easy yoke, this high expectation becomes much less burdensome.

Jesus begins his great sermon with a statement of what it looks like to be blessed. How do his words compare to what we often hear from other sources?

John's account of Jesus' incarnation doesn't have shepherds or angels or O Holy Nights, but it does paint a picture of Jesus as someone profoundly different than anyone who had come before.
