The Prodigal Son

In youth group this week, we discussed the story of the Prodigal Son as it relates to shame and guilt in our lives. It was a joy to share this passage with the students, but it was also an intensely valuable reminder to me about the love of God.

Love is Action

About a week ago, I was sitting on my dorm room floor, praying for God to show me how to love someone that I don't like at all. For quite some time, I have struggled over the question: how do we, as followers of Christ, deal with feelings of envy, animosity, or disdain, let alone, love people as Christ did? I think God is beginning to show me that answer.
