God could have created a boring world, but instead He created something beautiful and full of wonder! Worship Him today, because He is "considerably above average" in beauty.

How is God "considerably above average"? Certainly in His intelligence! Who else could create such a wonderfully complex world?

The God of the Bible is "considerably above average" in every way. Do you know him? No other gods can compare!

Praying "stay with me" as you go about your business today might be the best prayer to pray.

On that walk to Emmaus, Jesus led what was probably the greatest Bible study ever... and the disciples' hearts were burning passionately as they heard him speak. We can still find that fire in the Word today - don't leave your Bible on the shelf friends, open yourselves to hear His voice through the written Word!

Jesus wants to walk with us and talk with us along the narrow way. It's a friendship, a journey. I hope you'll welcome him into your journey today.

The disciples so revered Jesus because of His resurrection! It was their go-to line to prove He was the Messiah - that He rose from the dead. And so they went and told Jesus' story everywhere. We should do the same today! 

Like kids on Easter searching for eggs, we all have a way of seeking pleasures that don't fulfill. Are you looking for life among the dead? Jesus offers something much, much better!

Will you cherish the old rugged cross today? If you do, one day you will be able to exchange it for a crown.

The last thing Jesus prays before heading to his cross is for his followers to be united. Can we be united even with our differences? Our common ties make us one as Christians, and they're deep enough to transcend that which divides us. Let's cherish our union rather than our divisions, so that more people come to see Jesus in all His glory through us.
