Third times the charm.  Thanks so much for your patience and sorry for the many attempts it took to get it done today, but here it is.

Be blessed!

Well, I’m on uncharted ground.  I delivered the whole lesson a second time only for the recording to falter midway through again.  I’m at a loss.  The only idea I have now that I think I could figure out is to do it live through Facebook.  So if you are ready to come to Sunday school now, join me on Facebook.  Otherwise, I will post a link to it here shortly!

While my fence heard the lesson I delivered this evening, sadly you will not.  Though the lawnmower right beside me didn’t stop it from happening, the inexplicable technical glitch did.  While deterred for the night, I will go back to the battle in the morning!

I intend to attempt to do it all again early Sunday morning…on my own as my kids weren’t in for sunrise services 🙂 Hopefully I’ll be back again before most of you even see this post!

We turn our gaze for a spell toward Him who not only died and rose again, but who reigns in eternal majesty.

Sorry I went a bit long on this one, hopefully it will be worth it to you.  Again the cutting wouldn’t work so you have a bit extra on beginning and end…

Happy Easter!  He is Risen, He is Risen Indeed!

In this final lesson of the People of the Passion, we look through the eyes of Peter at a path we all and often tread.  May we each find ourselves blinded by the glories of the dawn of this Resurrection Sunday!

My kids forgot to trim the first and last so you get a few seconds of …extra 🙂

We look again through the eyes of people who experienced the first Passion week in hopes of seeing ourselves in their lives and encounters and finding ourselves also at His feet.

I’m trusting this was the word that God had me to deliver and that it will bear fruit.  I say this because it certainly appeared as though the enemy wasn’t liking it being heard.  I believe you can hear me well enough but there are plenty of distracting noises that might attempt to draw you away.  May God be glorified and you be blessed.

As we approach Easter Sunday, let us take the opportunity afforded us in these forced but quiet moments and attempt to glean all the awe and wonder of this Passion Week!

Over the next three days it is my hope to look at various aspects of the story of Easter through the lens of the biblical figures who played a role in them.  I hope you’ll find the following video is an appropriate beginning to a truly meaningful encounter with our Risen Savior!

I return this week to a somewhat lesser known Biblical figure with whom we might well relate in seasons of unrest and fear.

Thank you all so much for the feedback from last weeks lesson and hopefully any issues raised have been remedied.  If you find other impediments to your viewing and hearing, please let me know!

It would be advantageous to read 2 Chronicles chapter 20 before beginning the lesson and be sure to have your Bible on hand.

We are travelers here.

We are not meant to call this home, get settled in our comfortable lives, rest in the realm of the known.  Hard to do when you’re home bound.  Hard not to do when you don’t have a clue what tomorrow will look like.

Every once in a while God will splash a little cold water and ‘hmmm-hmmm’– that little nod that is meant to remind us to keep moving in the right direction.  In this season, God is calling many of us to do things that push us beyond comfort and familiarity.  Things that feel like cold water against the contented face of human stupor.  Here is mine.

Today I begin a bit of something new.  While I love to write, we all know I am inconsistent at best.  These times call for something more from me anyway.  The need of the day is that you watch a lesson rather than read one.

So here goes.

This is the first of what may be a handful or a bevy of lessons…in keeping with the spirit of the lesson itself, I do not know and am content that I do not now need to.

Let me know if there are glitches I can work on before another lesson is filmed.  I know the volume is rather low, hopefully you can hear it if you ‘jack it up real good.’

Prior to watching the video, it would be advantageous for you to read the scriptural context – Judges 13.  Enjoy and let me know of any needed adjustments.
