Jesus talks to a woman who should have hated him about things that were very personal to her. He called out the truth that she didn't want to hear but in the end with a heart of repentance over her distance from God, she was able to find a closeness she had missed.

A verse that's all too familiar but do we really know what it means?

Jesus uses a sacred jar for a different purpose showing that we too can be used for something bigger than we realize.

A new beginning with a familiar start.

Peter reminds us as members of churches today that we have a responsibility to not sit on the sideline or take what the church gives without participating and getting involved in the life and ministry of what the church is doing.

Peter reminds us that loving one another will go a long way toward fixing the problems we see in our world, community and homes.

Peter reminds us that grace isn't what we deserve or what we can afford but what we receive regardless of our condition. Nothing can change the gracious way God sees you.

Peter reminds us that as believers in Jesus, we are living temples where God is glorified just by the way we live our lives. Our words, actions and even thoughts are to give God glory and honor in all we do.
