This Sunday we’re starting a new teaching series through the book of Hebrews! There’s always something special about the first Sunday of a new study. Gathering on that first Sunday always renews an excitement in my heart to teach God’s people. However, this weekend feels a little awkward though doesn’t it? Here we sit in a stay-home order that’s sure to last the entire month of April. I don’t like that we can’t physically gather, it’s not ideal. I’m not cut out to be a YouTube-preacher and I miss seeing your faces more than you know. All that being said, I’m no less excited to study through this season together!

Judging isn't popular in our culture. We live in fear of saying anything that could be deemed judgmental. Whatever you do just don't say that anyone or anything is wrong, right? And therein lies the paradox, you have to be careful taking any moral position in fear of being publicly ridiculed or bullied by those who oppose (or judge) you.

A couple of weeks ago we studied a bold pronouncement of Christ, "I AM the light." This Sunday in chapter 9 of his gospel John tells us of a man born blind who was healed by our savior, from Christ's healing touch he saw the light. From this passage sparks a wealth of religious discussion. Why are some born with physical ailments? Why is there evil in the world? Why do people have to suffer?

Using words like bold, fearless and audacious to describe Jesus' interactions with Jewish opposition simply are not sufficient. He went way beyond those descriptive terms. We just don't have the words to describe his relentless obedience to the one who sent him. This Sunday we'll see Jesus take his damning accusations towards his opposition to an entirely new level.

Taking jabs at the popular "Left Behind" series has become the norm in many Christian circles. I'm anticipating these doctrinal jabs to intensify at the reboot of this movie that will star Nicolas Cage in 2014 (not even joking, click here and see for yourself). Whether you think "Left Behind" is deserving of all the bad mouthing, doctrinally flawed or not, you wouldn't want to base your eschatological position off of a novel would you? No...

"Christ, the light of the world, is for us as well as for others, if we humbly follow Him, cast our souls on Him, and become His disciples. Let us not, like thousands, waste our lives in doubting and arguing and reasoning, but simply follow. The child that says, 'I will not learn anything till I know something' will never learn at all. The man that says, 'I must first understand everything before I become a Christian' will die in his sins. Let us begin by 'following' and then we shall find light." - J.C. Ryle
