Society says that the more we take, the more we have.
But Christ says just the opposite.
The more we give, the more we will receive.
That's God's arithmetic, not the world's.

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.

Transcendence

When the disciples saw Jesus with Moses and Elijah on that mountain, something awe-inspiring and transcendent happened.

Jesus' life and those of the disciples were so much the richer for it.

As it is for all of us who are willing to open ourselves to transcendent moments.

A Clean Slate

Jesus saves us from our sins.
He saves us.
He rescues us from the mistakes of our past.

And God delivers us from the prison of the past to the promise of this brand-new year.

And in doing so, God offers us a clean slate
-- a fresh start.

"It's not just about mountaintop moments like the Transfiguration. Our journey of faith is about the everyday. Not just the highs, but the lows -- and sometimes even the mundane. It's about knowing the glory of Jesus when things aren't so mountain-toppy."
