Not Your Manna

A mini-episode: What is the things of the Spirit are more real and tangible than even the physical world we know? What if things of the Spirit can change the reality in which we live? What if you get a new coat…?

This is a tribute to Dr Michael Bauman, who taught me about Pilgrim Theology & countless other ideas that changed my life. You will hear many theological anecdotes, and I will be surprised if you don't laugh a little. I did.

These are some chunks of thought and some further explanation of things that I didn't have time to explore during my sermon on the Gospel but that are potentially worth chewing on

This is a sermon about the Gospel, which is the greatest love story ever told! And particularly about the spiritual story of the gospel, and how the power of what we cannot see changes everything.

Christianity is a team sport. The Body of Christ has a call that is bigger than any one of us can accomplish alone. May we as a Body be marked by Undivided Devotion and a yielding to His Presence.

This is a call to Surrender to the King. To Wake Up to what God is up to around you. To Follow with Whole-hearted Devotion. Here I am, send me!

Some spiritual ponderings and prayers welling up in the aftermath of the fire in Louisville & Superior.

A couple thoughts about Christmas!! May you be filled with the Wonder of His Love

This is a sermon I gave about the value of connecting with God… and whether I treat my cell phone better than my soul… and some follow up nuggets as well!

This episode contains 6 nuggets of thoughts… you know, just 6 more steps on this crazy journey!!

We look at Acts 5 and following to see how sufferings and persecution can be understood in light of a suffering savior. And also a good look at what makes Jesus stand up. Ps. This is a sermon

So many thoughts including but not limited to: Do we take His Name in vain? Doubting Thomas. Wait, another Joseph? Not falling out the window. Deer feet and wrath. Peter's shadow & old catholic hymns. And a victory sticker at the end.

We will look more deeply into what it means to live out of the indwelling Holy Spirit! And talk a little about fleas

Let's chat about Pentecost, the Jewish feasts, and of course the Holy Spirit

A collection of insights and musings from Acts 1

Does the unfailing love of the Lord really “fill the whole earth"? And could it actually fill me? Thoughts on Psalm 33

This is a sermon out of Luke 19 where we look mostly at the story of Zacchaeus & find that we may be surprised at the way God does things!

How God always bids us COME & has some manna that is in fact "the richest of fare" for us

What does the prophet tell us to "give careful thought to" and how does that influence how we live?

Reflections from Boulder & what God is stirring up in the Spirit in the midst of the recent tragedies here & in our nation

Can we love God in slices, picking and choosing the parts of him we like & want to worship? And also some thoughts about nicknames and prayer.

How do we believe as God's children that He wants to give us manna & what we most deeply hunger for?

We look into Luke 7 to wonder who Jesus says is worthy to sit at the table. Ps. This is a sermon so it's a little less podcast-y, but I bet you will navigate it just fine. Best of luck.

Some thoughts about the context of Luke 8:28 and what it might mean in our lives as children of God.

A little more about what we can learn from manna & how God brings us into a deeper level of trust, one step at a time.

How do we seek our own manna from God instead of hijacking the manna all around us? What if God has more for us...?
