Questions for the week
How have you seen God work in the middle of chaos in your life?
Read John 12:27-36 (and John 18 and 19 for extra credit). How do you see God in control at all times, even in chaos?
How can we be more effective as witnesses in presenting the cross as a sign that God is in control of the chaos?
When we treat time like a shrinking commodity, our families and neighbors can feel like frustrating interruptions. This week, we see how Jesus frees us to see those interruptions as gifts.
Bible study traced Mark 9:2–50 into Mark 10:1–52, emphasizing humility over status, protecting “little ones,” radical measures against sin, God’s design for marriage, childlike faith, the danger of wealth, servant greatness, and true spiritual vision.
The shoes you put on every day when you work or shop are actually a mask of God, they are the very way He walks into the world to provide for His creation.
What a great weekend. We welcomed in 12 new members at Grace Lutheran PSL. We Also celebrated Pastor Cris’ 10th anniversary at Grace.

This sermon could just as easily be titled YHWH I AM EGO EIMI. Today we are going to take a journey to the Land of Holiness. When we get there, we will still be here.. Yes, that is a paradox. No, we are not going to leave this sanctuary. This is a journey of the heart, of the soul. Once we know where holiness lives, it will come alive in us.
