However, when I see that the Washington Post and USA Today both have articles on the
Did you just fall into the lap of luxury? It might’ve seemed so. The bed was much nicer than yours, with a comforter like cotton candy. The carpet was sink-to-your-ankles thick.

Today we make a transition in our Resurrection Life series. Up to this point, we have only considered the amazing interactions people had with the risen Jesus between His resurrection and His ascension. This week and next, we will look at two interactions Jesus had with people after His ascension. Why? To remind us that

With spring in full swing and summer here before you know it, you’ve already probably started switching out your cold-weather clothes for warm-weather apparel. Goodbye overcoats, hello flip-flops! Chunky knits can take a long-awaited break and give their lighter-weight colleagues a turn at keeping your shoulders covered. With this closet switcheroo, it’s a good time
