Maundy Thursday is “Love Others Thursday”

 

 

When you know who you are, and Whose you are, you don’t have to worry about being in the top spot. You can love others as He has loved you. Jesus is God, all things are His, and He serves others with His whole life. Only when you know who and Whose you are — the Father’s beloved child — can you look at others, love them, and put their needs before your own.

Freedom…in Lent? (Whats UP Wednesday)

Lent isn’t about you. It’s about Jesus. Turn your focus from yourself and the things you do for Jesus. Sure, we should have that focus every day of the year. But we don’t. So we have a season to help us do that. Lenten fasting and disciplines are great. But do them so that you get yourself out of the way, so Lent can be about watching Jesus go to the cross for you.

Ep. 8: Don’t They Know it’s the Third Use of the Law?

Once upon a time, there was a controversy among Lutherans. (Shocker!) One camp said the Law has no place in the life of the Christian anymore and good works will spontaneously spring forth without any sort of instruction or guidance. But when we work to set aside the Law, to free ourselves from the Law’s curse, we forget that we already ARE free of the Law’s curse, in Christ. Jesus didn’t need the Law to command or threaten Him about how to best love God and us, but He still kept it. And because we are not yet perfect in this life, we still need the Law to guide us and show us what love looks like.
