God loves a great story, and all of us who know Him will recall and celebrate and continue to live in that story for all eternity.

If we can keep ourselves from interfering with the natural laws of life, mistakes can be our child's finest teachers.

It's dangerous faith in our untamed Savior that leads us to the joy we crave.

I imagine our first glimpse of Heaven will cause us to gasp in amazement and delight. That first gasp will likely be followed by many more as we continually encounter new sights in that endlessly wonderful place.

What is good about Good Friday? Why isn't it called Bad Friday? Because out of the appallingly bad came what was inexpressibly good. And the good trumps the bad, because though the bad was temporary, the good is eternal.

Christ offers us the incredible opportunity to trade temporary goods and currency for eternal rewards.

Seeking happiness apart from a right relationship God is like trying to turn on a light that's unplugged.
