Another John Weekly Message

Don't let anger be a substitute for obedience and faithfulness.

Hope doesn't come from winning every battle. It comes from knowing the God who promises to walk with you and keep you.

And whenever you hear a praise reminder, however you can, fall before God, giving back to the Lord and worship.

Even ministry can take on a life of its own apart from God's holiness.

God sees you, knows you and holds you.

Will we destroy one another or build together the hopeful future we envision?

The world is still hurting, but God is still speaking.

The surpassing greatness of God draws us to celebration.

Maybe we don't always experience Christ's resurrection through trumpets and fanfare.

You may still be in the fight of your life, but don't stop declaring your victory song.

How many joined in shouting out because that felt safer than speaking up?

The world calls the cross foolish. But the bread and cup preach otherwise.

Jesus didn't ask us to be religion's bodyguards.

When we choose the cross of Jesus, we don't choose power defined by the world's wisdom.

What we offer to Jesus fills where we are.

Faith isn’t something you hang up and leave be.

Hope rolls forward, not backward.

Turning to the love of God doesn't always make life easy. But it does keep our eyes on what is eternal.
