Where is Isaac? After the ram appeared, Isaac was nowhere to be found, and what happened to him and his family is one of the greatest mysteries of the Bible--one that led the ancient Rabbis to ask questions about the coming Messiah.

When I was a teenager, there were people with certain diseases whom everyone was scared to get near, and in every generation, there are people who are hated because of what they do for a living, what they believe, or where they come from. Last week, we saw how Jesus dealt with the hated Samaritans, and this week we are going to talk about Princess Diana and Mother Theresa--two ladies who reached out to people whom others hated.

If we want to see what love looks like, we have to look at how Jesus treats the people whom everyone else disapproves of being with. This time, we are going for the double whammy of a woman who wasn’t even a Jew but one of the Samaritans, their hated enemy.

This week we are going to look at what Jesus said about kids, their angels, and anyone who hurts them.

We’re going to talk about a very important part of God’s love this week—justice! What did Jesus mean when He said that people who exalt themselves will be exalted and people who humble themselves would be humbled? How do the stories of Joseph, David, Jesus and the churches of Revelation teach us how God’s love works in making things right?

This has been a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad year on social media so far but the last two weeks have been the worst so far. Sometimes, when grownups and kids are in front of a computer and can’t be punched, the say the most terrible things you can imagine to others--things they wouldn’t ever say if they were in front of the person. And if they would say those things in person, they need Jesus really bad. So, we are going to talk about body shaming and insults and how we should treat one another.

Yeah, everyone calls it the Parable of Lazarus and the Rich Man but when we look at what Jesus was telling His audience of mostly poor Jews, it was a funny and outrageous story about a very rich man who is so rotten that he ends up getting thrown into the canyon where all the trash of Jerusalem is burned.

I love the Doctor Pimple Popper TV show because she has something in common with Jesus in the work she does to reunite people with their communities! Jesus healed people and no one did it better than Him but sometimes we forget that the most important thing about many of His miracles is that He got people back together with their families!

How do we love like Jesus? We’re going to talk about the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats, how goats aren’t evil, and what it looks like to love the least of these in school and church.

Before we go back to Genesis and tackle the ever growing family of Abraham, we need to understand love as Jesus taught it. Otherwise, we might make the mistake of thinking that God approves of the nonsense those guys get into. Case in point—selling your little brother as a slave is not okay.
