How Jesus interacted with and treated people in a very tense and divided time can teach us a great deal about how engage culture in our own day with truth and love. 

We are all being formed by something. Spiritual formation in the Way of Jesus is the process of being formed into people of love in Christ.  

What gets our attention shapes us. The baseline of the life of an apprentice is spending time with the Master. 

Transformation is possible if we are willing to arrange our lives around the practices, rhythms, and truths that Jesus himself did, which will open our lives to God’s power to change.
