In Pursuit of Jesus

The Good Yoke

We meditate on Jesus' offer of a spiritual yoke that will not exhaust, choke, or crush us. If you feel exhausted, choked, or crushed by the work of this world, then Jesus' yoke is for you!

The God Who Is

What's with the weird name for the god of the Hebrews given to Moses: "I am"? What kind of name is that? What does it signify? Explore what it means for Moses, for Jesus, and for us.

The Call of Moses

We are used to images of the burning bush speaking to Moses--but what's the content of their conversation, and why does it matter to us? Some in-depth time with just what this God of the Burning Bush tells the soon-to-be leader of the Hebrews.

Passion for Justice

Moses' story opens some doors on how our passion for justice can affect the world, and ourselves. It also reveals that such passion is a God-given gift not to be suppressed or neglected.

Salvific Acceptance

Mary the mother of Jesus is the Seventh Woman Who Saved the World (in this series--there have been many more). Discover what we can learn from her willingness to let God work through her life in a simple way.
