It’s not the accumulation of wealth that’s the problem. You’re right though, Jesus had a lot to say about money. In some places he talks about it more than prayer. In the end, that being this blog and your life, it would pay for you to listen up to this story of The Rich Fool.

Relationship is what God wants out of prayers and this is how God wants it understood. God and you have this thing going. You two need to talk. What follows is a structure to this particular prayer, the Lord's Prayer, but each part is a prayer unto itself. Talk it over with God where you are in it.

Jesus, on this one we have to give it to you. You didn’t send Mary back to the kitchen just because she was a woman....Well, thanks, but not so fast. If you are assuming this is some kind of feminist liberation call, you’re two steps behind and five miles ahead. Jesus didn’t go around saying that kind of thing...

Jesus’ stories knock around in the soul with his aim of reversing, redirecting, twisting what one has been taught to believe.

It’s been another one of those weeks. We used to say all hell broke loose, but now it seems hell just hangs around and has taken up residence. People are fighting, accusing, demanding their own way. Consensus is a forgotten concept. You just can’t get away from it...So hell burns, and no one puts out the fire.

As if we needed any other example of how you’re so dangerous, this one may seal the deal....Blind allegiance to a leader is the first sign of a cult, an ideology, totalitarian brain washing and overthrow. You’re speaking it now. Thanks for the warning...

The Trouble with Jesus is he comes between what controls us and who we are made to be.

The Trouble with Jesus is what he said about himself, where he came from, and for what reasons can make you feel like you’ve got no chance of getting anywhere near something in which to believe. Yet, if it was easy, would it mean anything, have any real significance?

The Trouble with Jesus is he wants to be a Lover in the fullest sense a soul could know.
