New Life

God does not call us to be successful. 
God calls us instead to be faithful.

And then leave the results of our faithful actions in God's merciful strong loving hands. That's where the success comes -- from God. Not from us.

And if we'll persevere in this task, then God will come to us and as he did with Ezekiel, just as he did to Lazarus, offer us the gift of new life.

 - Denny Burnette

Scripture Readings:
Ezekiel 37:1-14
John 11:1-44

Because There Was Much Water

  • Abraham about to sacrifice his only son, Isaac
  • Jacob dislocating his hip wrestling with God
  • The Angel of Death striking Egypt's first-born sons
  • Jonah swallowed by a great fish
  • Ezekiel in the valley of dry bones
  • Sampson wielding the jawbone of an ass
  • Jesus walking on water
  • John the Baptist crying in the wilderness

You can't sum up stories like these with nice little Sunday School morals. You can't box them in or contain them. 

You can only experience them over and over as you read them, and study them, and hear them, and ponder their power for your life. 

​ - John Amos

Scripture Readings:

Ezekiel 36:24-28
John 3:22:24

Tragedy, Comedy, and Fairy Tale

God invites us to join Him breaking down the walls of hostility and raising up bridges of hope.

The way to do that is to demonstrate the same kind of loving acceptance and mercy that Jesus himself showed.

Such a calling is not easy.
It's a lifelong and uphill struggle.
But it's more than worth it.

Because the world's hatred leads to death. God's love to leads to life. 
 - Denny Burnette

Scripture Readings: 
​Exodus 17:1-7
John 4:1-30, 39-42

Beware the Bumps!

Being born anew in Jesus' terms is not something we do. It's not a box we can check. 


It's something that God does on our behalf. 
It's something that God does within us. 
It's a process by which God,
over the course of a lifetime,
molds us lovingly into something beautiful.

 - Denny Burnette

Scripture Readings:
Genesis 12:1-4
John 3:1-16; 19:38-42
