Whether we are as dense as Derek Zoolander or as smart as Stephen Hawking, we can all have the same problem: a lack of being curious and a neglect of learning the voice of the Good Shepherd. But as we engage the voice, we will find our actions and activities will sound like the Good Shepherd.

Rethinking Luther, Rethinking Myself
I Was Sure of my Self-Righteousness, and Grace Sounded Too Easy
I Was Sure of my Self-Righteousness, and Grace Sounded Too Easy
In college, I liked to trash-talk Lutherans when I was drinking. I didn’t do this all the time, but it certainly wasn’t an isolated incident.
“The guy who wrote On the Jews and Their Lies is the guy you want to rally behind?” I would ask with a self-satisfied smirk on my face. Reader, I don’t blame you for wanting to get in a time machine and punch 22-year-old me square in the jaw.

Tripple H: Head, Heart, Hands (Teaching Series)
Jesus is standing on the shore calling Peter and the other disciples to follow him. He says, "Come follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men." Jesus, in this one phrase, is calling them into stewardship in God’s Kingdom, calling them in head, heart, and hands.

Choosing church brings consistency into our lives. And the consistency that it brings is the good news of Jesus into your lives. The church is the consistent place where the good news of Jesus is proclaimed.

Praying to God gives us direction in a confusing world. That means it helps me on the inside. It doesn’t only help internally but also externally because it spills over into this world. And what goes into the world has an amazing chance of changing it.
