Worship of Jesus takes our eyes off of ourselves. It shapes how we interact with one another. There is level ground when it comes to giving our worship to Jesus. In worship, no matter what status we hold, we can experience commonality and community. When we experience the majesty and holiness of God like the shepherds did, we are compelled to want to share that joy with others around us. O come let us adore Him!

Our hearts long for retribution; for justice to be had. In our movies, shows, and in our music, culture celebrates when someone gets their due. Here's the problem: the cycle continues because revenge only scratches the surface of the real issue. What our situations require is worship. Worship leads us to what we all really need to hear, be reminded of, and experience: God's ultimate road to justice.

Christian worship is more than a Sunday tradition. It’s a powerful, weekly practice that reorients our hearts toward humility and God’s faithfulness. Through Mary’s song in Luke 1, we’ll see how worship challenges the lies of pride and materialism while filling us with trust in the promise-keeping God.

Sometimes, in our world, something so enormously important happens that will alter the lives we live. Even though the signs are all there, people are oblivious to it and go on with their lives. In our passage today, John shows us that even though Jesus had been performing many signs and showing the people that life in relation to God was changing, the people resisted Him. Jesus warns them, and all people, that our resistance to His good news will be the very thing that judges us in the end.

As Jesus concludes his final public teaching before beginning his journey toward the cross, he reminds us that he came into the world to give us the best picture of who God is and the true life He offers. How we choose to view Jesus in our life today impacts whether or not we will be able to see God clearly for who He is and to receive His invitation to eternal life with Him forever.

In this passage, Jesus reminds his hearers that he has spoken of and has demonstrated his intention that all who seek him will find him easily; Jesus isn't hiding! For a myriad of reasons, a couple found in this passage, many have chosen to hide from him despite his invitation to come into his light. So, Jesus. again, invites us no to judgement, but, instead, to step out of darkness into his light because, in the end, whether we're seeking or we're hiding, we will all be found and judged by God.

What if your life is like a seed, full of incredible potential waiting to be unlocked? Jesus offers an invitation to something greater, but it requires sacrifice and a choice. Are you ready to plant your life in Him and embrace the life He’s calling you to?

When God doesn’t act as we expect, how do we respond? As Jesus entered Jerusalem, the crowds had strong reactions—some celebrated, others opposed, and many misunderstood him. Through this moment, we see how our own expectations can shape, and even distort, our view of God. Are we pursuing God for who he truly is, or for what we hope he’ll do for us?

It is challenging to think clearly about our money. We tend to view it as a limited resource that needs to be constantly protected. The Bible, however, paints a much more compelling picture: our money is like a seed that we can chose to hold onto or to plant. It’s a powerful resource with potential that cannot be unlocked until it’s given away. So … what are you doing with your money these days?
