HER STORY: Leaders in the Cause of Christ, Mary of Bethany

Mary said few words, but her passion and practice made a deep and lasting impact on Jesus’ heart and our understanding of discipleship. #MaryofBethany, #John11, #John12

Martha, Lazarus, and Mary were all disciples of Jesus, people who loved and followed Jesus, opened their home to Him, shared their table with Jesus in fellowship and enjoyed Jesus’ friendship as well as lived by Jesus’ teaching. Each had their own unique relationship with the Lord, yet together, as a family, they displayed all the aspects of a church. Especially the sisters, Martha and Mary,…

Walk on Water? Why? (Matthew 14:22-33)

Failure does not define us; it isn’t our identity.

Jesus Walks on Water, by Konstantin Alexejewitsch Korowin, 1890  Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. Later that night, he was there alone,and the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because…

“Here I Am! Send Me.”

The prophet Isaiah describes an incredible vision that God gave him in Isaiah 6. He saw the Lord on a throne with angelic beasts flying around crying, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory!” (Isaiah 6:3 NIV) An angelic being then came to Isaiah, took a burning coal and touched his mouth with it to show the removal of his guilt and the forgiveness of his sin.…

We’re still navigating our way with Jesus when He was in and out of places after His resurrection. He served up fried fish for His disciples by a campfire as they came to Him from their fishing boat.

John 17:20-26

Confusion is Part of the Learning Process

I know a secret; the more I learn about the Bible, the more I learn about myself...the disciple's confusion demonstrates that they took Jesus seriously.

 John 16  New International Version – we read…  “All this I have told you so that you will not fall away. 2 They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God. 3 They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me. 4 I have told you this, so that when their time comes you will remember that…

HER STORY: Leaders in the Cause of Christ, Lydia

Through Lydia we learn that mature faith accepts God's crossing up of conventions--I first heard that taught in a BSF class, years ago, and I was struck with the simple wisdom in that statement. #Lydia #PurpleDye #Acts16

In thinking about Lydia’s story, five divisions seemed to emerge: Lydia’s destiny Lydia’s career as a dye merchant Lydia’s desire to establish her own household The dream God gave Paul to evangelize in Macedonia The dignity God settled on women in first century Palestine and on Lydia, and the dignity the Apostle Paul also conferred on women and on Lydia I Destiny, Acts 16:14 II Dye…

What Must Come (Mark 9:9-13)

What goes up, must come down.

As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus gave them orders not to tell anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead. They kept the matter to themselves, discussing what “rising from the dead” meant. And they asked him, “Why do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?” Jesus replied, “To be sure, Elijah does come first, and restores all things. Why…
