Nourishment
It is the only miracle story to appear in
all 4 Gospels. It is the one story almost everyone knows outside of
the birth story and the crucifixion. It is the feeding of the five
thousand. So, what's the big deal? Why all the repeat this
particular story so many times? Well, I think there is a simple
reason for that. In this story we find the richness and depth of who
Jesus is. We see the compassion, the power, the love. We find a
powerful metaphor for Holy Communion

The Living Water
These days most of us probably spend a lot
of time thinking about what we don't have. Most of us have less
money than we did 18 months ago. Most of us are older than we'd like
to be. Most of us have lost someone that we wish we could have back.
Most of us don't have the car or television or house we want. Most
of us look around our lives and we see what is absent. And that is
because our lives are filled with things that are finite, that have
limits. Not to bring you down, but someday, everything we have will
be gone.

Miracles
"Now
standing there were six stone waters jars for the Jewish rites of
purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. Jesus said to
them, 'Fill the jars with water.' And they filled them up to the
brim. He said to them, 'Now draw some out, and take it to the chief
steward.' So they took it. When the steward tasted the water that
had become wine...he said, 'everyone serves the good wine first and
the inferior wine after the guests have become drunk. But you have
kept the good wine until now.'"-John 2: 6-10

The Gift of Faith
Have you heard these words before? They
are both very familiar and very controversial. In this passage Jesus
is trying to explain his ministry to one of the religious leaders, a
man named Nicodemus, who has come to see him under the cover of
darkness

The Holy Spirit
The work of the Holy Spirit is and always
has been mysterious. No one really understands it and no one can
predict its movements in the world. Yet despite this lack of
understanding the Spirit remains at the core of the Christian life
because it is our tangible connection to God.

"Love is too Familiar a Word"
There is a poem entitled, "Love is too Familiar a Word" and when I
approach passages like this it often pops into my head. Over and
over again we hear two things as Christians; God loves us and we
should love other people. We hear these words so often, and we are
told of God's love so frequently, that the saying becomes too
familiar. The word "love" loses its power and becomes a cliche with
little weight or influence in our lives. And when this happens it is
tragic.
