Book: Ephesians

We have become exiled from our destiny as God’s children, but Jesus has been born among us to reveal to us and restore us to that destiny.

Jesus, the coming king, will rise above power mongering and tenderly lead the people into paradise

Every relationship in the universe – between God and creation, between humans, and between humans and creation – is driven by three dynamics: justice, mercy and faith.

The revelation of what God is on about in Christ will always upend our expectations and disrupt our lives.

In the face of monumental devastation and suffering, God speaks a word, and the word becomes flesh.

Making the Church in the incarnate body of Christ is costly for God, and both challenging and salvific for us.

A fortified inner self not only enables a person to offer love properly but to receive love properly, even from God, to give without strings, to receive without suspicion.

The answers to the questions about our future directions are not easy, but we can trust the God who holds our future in his hands.

The hope that empowers us to maintain our counter-cultural obedience to Christ, is that the One who will eventually rule over all is the One who offers himself as a suffering servant of all.

The forces seeking to destroy any chance of real Christian living are formidable, but so are the weapons God gives us.

The measure of the value of our worship is the measure of the transformation of our lives.

Praise and prayer enable us to find our true identify in Christ, and it is as we find out who we are that we find our true strength.
