Apr 600:05:03Tap to summarize"Christ is my center but ... my boundaries are permeable." Kimberly Knight Matthew 28:16-20 (The phrase “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations” might lead to many understandings of the word “nations” for Biblical times and today, but “Go” seems absolutely unambiguous)

Apr 500:02:36Tap to summarize“If it is an error for some Christians to make relative what God has made absolute, it is equally an error to make absolute what God has left relative." Os Guinness John 20:1-18 (“They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him”)

Transcribe →Lent Roll - Week 7, FRI
Apr 300:02:33Tap to summarize"Often, when someone dies, we feel a combination of love and something else, and this, too, is holy. And entirely human. And they don’t cancel each other out. Love and anger. Love and disappointment. Love and emptiness. We always love imperfectly. It is the nature of human love. And it is okay. But despite all the love in the world, when it comes down to it, none of us can know the reality of another." Nadia Bolz-Weber John 19:1-37 (when Jesus had received the wine, he said, “It is finished”)

Transcribe →Lent Roll - Week 7, TUE
Mar 3100:02:24Tap to summarize“Yes, a man is a dangerous thing. So is a scalpel. It can wound or it can save your life. You don't make it safe by making it dull; you put it in the hands of someone who knows what he's doing.” John Eldredge John 18:1-11 (Jesus told Peter to put away his sword, and we should understand that having a weapon does not mandate using it … as opposed to turning the other cheek and leaving fate in God’s hands – the cup the Father has given)
Transcribe →Lent Roll - Week 7, MON
Mar 3000:02:31Tap to summarize"Some deny Jesus by saying they never knew him. Others deny Jesus by insisting that they are the only ones who 'really do' know him." -Greg Matthew 26:31-75 Mark 14:26-72 Luke 22:31-62 John 13:36-38 John 18:15-27 (perhaps denying Jesus is so significant that it appears in every Gospel)

Mar 2900:02:53Tap to summarize"Imagine if every church became a place where everyone is safe, but no one is comfortable. ... We might just create sanctuary."

Transcribe →Lent Roll - Week 6, SAT
Mar 2800:02:26Tap to summarize“Today I know that such memories are the key not to the past, but to the future. I know that the experiences of our lives, when we let God use them, become the mysterious and perfect preparation for the work He will give us to do.” Corrie ten Boom John 13:1-35 (through foot washing as an example of serving one another, Jesus tells disciples that they, and we, should do the same)
