April 7 – Keep On Loving
Matthew 27:32-66; Deuteronomy 7-8; Job 7 People don’t change their minds easily. Research shows that it is much easier to use information to reinforce a belief that is held, no matter how tenuous that belief might be, than it is … Continue reading

February 1 – Following the Mob

Mark 10:32-52; 2 Samuel 24; Hosea 4:1-11a There’s always that “one” person. You know what I mean. He’s the one that raises a ruckus trying to get the city council to pay attention to him. She’s the one that writes … Continue reading
