Fifth Sunday of Lent: Jesus Speaks to His Mother and the Disciple

April 2, 2017 by Jamie Noyd No Comments

Looking on the scene of the crucifixion is painful. Roman guards drive nails through Jesus’ flesh and his body writhes in pain. You hold your breath while they raise the cross with Jesus pinned to it.

Fourth Sunday of Lent: Jesus is Helped by Simon the Cyrenian to Carry the Cross

March 26, 2017 by Jamie Noyd No Comments

After being flogged, Jesus starts his final journey to the crucifixion site. Imagine being in the crowds watching on the side of the road as he comes stumbling along the way, barely able to walk, let alone carry the weight of the cross.

Third Sunday of Lent: Jesus is Judged by Pilate

March 19, 2017 by Jamie Noyd No Comments

Friends, religious authorities, and now politicians are part of the community that abandons Jesus. Along the path we are now out of the garden and in front of the Roman governor’s residence, a structure whose architecture conveys great power and wealth. Watching from the outside, we wonder if we should even be here.

Why I Appreciate Christian Scholars, Post 2

March 4, 2017 by Christopher Lim No Comments

My personal appreciation for Christian scholars stems from the many deep, enriching conversations I’ve had with them. People who combine intellectual acumen with a passion for their field, the patience to teach and a mind set on Christ are a rare gift.

The Spiritual Act of Naming: Truth Telling in Writing (Writing As a Spiritual Discipline Series)

February 9, 2017 by Heather Walker Peterson 1 Comment

My desire to write comes from an experience of reading. I read a transforming word. As I am transformed, I wish to influence transformation in a confusing and unjust world.
