The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14 (I promised last week to write more about the word skenoo, but that will have to wait.) This will be a personal post, today, and it’s going to […]
Wednesdays In The Word: John 1:14, take 2
John 1:14: And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. The first chapter of John has held the attention of these posts for the last few weeks. For background to today’s study feel welcome […]
When Mama Goes Crazy
These have been hard days for this mama. The holidays passed and suddenly it was time for school again, long before I was ready. Not that ready was going to happen–my idea of ‘ready’ right about now entails a two week vacation to Italy (alone), and, well, that kind of ready will have to wait. We were asked […]
Wednesdays In The Word: John 1:14
Welcome back! It has been crazy over here for the past month and after a four-day weekend over New Year’s I finally feel like I’m catching my breath. I’m glad to get back into the swing of a normal routine, and I’ve enjoyed digging into John in preparation for these weekly posts. Today we’re going […]
Wednesdays In The Word: John 1:9-13
The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. But to all who did receive him, who believed in […]
Wednesdays In The Word: John 1:6-9
Welcome back to this second week! I’m still getting my footing as I’m not quite sure which direction to take these studies. I think the desire that is taking shape in my mind is to be able to look at a small piece of Scripture and pull from it a meditation-worthy nugget of truth. I know that […]
Wednesdays In The Word: John 1:1-5
Years ago I participated in a small collegiate group which gathered each morning to study the Bible. What began as a small, shy body of students grew into a fellowship of intimate friendships; these friends and I would eventually spend hours at a time together in prayer and seeking the Scriptures. We were awed by the power of […]
Wednesdays In The Word
Beginning tomorrow I am launching a new weekly series called Wednesdays In The Word. We will work our way quite slowly through Scripture, musing over a few verses at a time. These studies will not be fancy. They will, however, be real, and open to discussion, and written with an eye toward community. Some weeks will find us […]
Jesus In Mine Pocket
“William,” Ellenor said, crouching down to see the eyes of her little brother, “where is Jesus?” “Um, gone?” he said, ‘gone’ being his standard response to any question having to do with location. “No!” She laughed, “he’s in your heart. Right here, see, William, in your heart!” And so saying, she patted his chest. As […]
In which Ellen White never raises her voice
Part of my husband’s inheritance as a fourth generation Seventh-Day Adventist was a vast collection of red-covered books by one of the church’s key founders, Ellen White. Most of the books were passed down from his great-grandfather, and at one point we had two whole shelves of these tiny tomes. Now, I have had a love-fear relationship with Ellen […]
