“I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.”

Mark 10:42-45 – ESV

42 And Jesus called them to him and said to them, “You know that those who are considered rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 43But it shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant,[d] 44and whoever would be first among you must be slave[e] of all. 45For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

On Sunday, police blocked more than 500 worshippers from leaving their homes and detained more than 36 for attempting to attend religious services in Beijing, church officials said.

Where are the voices declaring how outrageous these violations are?

Is the international community now afraid to chastise China?

Is this a harbinger of more brazen violations on the horizon?

Will China’s economic explosion embolden its leaders to do as they please?

Troubling answers, I fear, to these questions…

Ravi inspires with truths surrounding creation, the word, the cross, and the resurrection in presentations excerpted from the Jesus Among Other Gods group study. This presentation is a beautiful and thought-provoking reminder of all that Easter celebrates.

Talmud

I just watched this interview for the first time, and desperately want my students to watch this entire clip in context. Taking bits and pieces here and there from it would, I think, be very misleading.

I love what I do, and I love my students desperately. I am thankful to our Father every day for the chance to serve Him in a place like BCS.

This is one man’s opinion. It’s an informed opinion, but merely reflects my perspective.

Rabbi Hanina said: “I have learned much from my teachers, and even more from my colleagues, but most of all from my students.” – Babylonian Talmud, Taanit 7a

Father,

As we prepare for our observance of Your Son’s passion and resurrection,
we humbly confess our complete inadequacy and despair in the face of an
overwhelming crisis.

We pray for Your mercy and grace to be shed abroad
on a hurting people today. We thank You, Father, that You are not unfamiliar
with our suffering, but chose to enter into it in the Person of Your Son, who
loved us and gave Himself for us.

May this season of preparation lead us to confess
with the Psalmist that “You sit enthroned over the flood; (you sit) enthroned as
king forever.” (Psalm 29:10)
