Jesus and Midnight waffles
John 20:19-28 The Message 19-20 Later on that day, the disciples had gathered together, but, fearful of the Jews, had locked all the doors in the house.

From Breakdown to break through
Luke 24:13-35 NRSVUE 13 Now on that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles [a] from Jerusalem, 14 and talking with each other about all these things that had happened. 15 While they were talking and discussing, Jesus himself came near and went with them, 16 but their eyes were kept from recognizing him. 17 And he said to them, “What are you discussing with each other while you walk along?” They…

Glory, Glorify, Glorified
“I don’t know about you, but I understand the scripture “Christ in me the hope of glory” better now. For me, it means Christ is in me and you, that we may manifest the power and peace of God.”
One Shepherd Many Voices
John 10:22-30 At that time the festival of the Dedication took place in Jerusalem. It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon. So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly.” Jesus answered, “I have told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name testify to me; but you…
Be Loved
John 21:14-17 This was now the third time that Jesus appeared to the disciples after he was raised from the dead.
