Attack of the Killer Paragraphs! “The truth is that often we are not looking for God; we are looking for outcomes. When we shout, ‘God, where are You?’ from the hospital bed, is it because we truly want God to sit with us or because we want to be healed?” www.goodreads.com/book/show/23...

Monday in The Message.

“Until this moment, no one had ever seen God, ‘not so much as a glimpse’ (John 1:18). . . . Jesus’ invitation to would-be disciples then and now is ‘Come, follow me. . . . You haven’t seen anything yet!’ (John 1:43, 50).” —The Message Women’s Devotional Bible #christmasbonus

Merry Christmas from your friends at NavPress!

“The world needs the love, faithfulness, and light of Christ. You are a light for Christ that shines his Spirit into the darkness and invites others to experience God’s love and care. What a gift.” —With God in Every Breath, by Whitney Simpson #christmas

As we hold Jesus’ stories in quiet stillness, listening for his Spirit to illuminate them and weave them into our own stories, their truths shape our thinking, transform our living, and inform our engagement with others. Praying the Parables of Jesus, by Stephen A. Macchia and S. K. Skinner #advent

When we live quietly, we live differently. We live with the volume of life dialed down, the pace of life slowed down, the desires of life restrained. We show up differently to work and relationships. … We speak simple, clear, powerful words born of silence. —The Speed of Soul, by Tommy Brown #advent

What would our world look like today if we, as the Kingdom community of Jesus, stopped looking to win the arguments, to impose our beliefs and preferences on each situation, and instead aimed to sprinkle the salt of grace and shine the light of love? —Choosing the Opposite, by Tammy Melchien #advent

“When our identity is rooted in who we are in Christ, … we establish our worth and value on the right foundation. We are free to take ownership of mistakes along the way because they don’t affect our personhood or identity.” —Motherhood Is Not Your Highest Calling, by Vicki Courtney #advent

“Jesus is God’s own self becoming homeless to bring us back Home. . . . Jesus is the long-promised Child of a woman, who absorbs the sting of evil to overcome it, who dies for us to live.” —You Can Trust a God with Scars, by Jared Ayers #advent

“Loving others generously is the outcome of brimming with God’s sacrificial, parental love. Because God is generous, he gave up the one thing that he only had one of: his Son. That’s how valuable you are. That’s how much God loves you.” —Easy to Follow, by Lyle Wells with Kat Armstrong #advent

“In a spiritual family, we don’t hide from each other. We do life together and help each other along the way. We remember that we are not perfect and that we walk the road with other imperfect people. That’s what it means to be in the family of God.” —The Power of Together, by Jim Putman #advent

“We celebrate Immanuel, God with us, and compassion means ‘to suffer with.’ . . . If my faith paradigm creates a life that avoids sacrifice and discomfort and standing with those who suffer, I’m not fully living in God’s story.” Homegrown Disciples, by David Sunde #advent

“We are people who have been brought out of death and into life, out of darkness and into the marvelous light. Our whole selves have been radically transformed. That means we live and move through the world with the Kingdom of God as our compass.” —Lit Up with Love, by Derwin Gray #advent

God’s redemptive plan culminates in the giving of His Son, Jesus Christ, who is the embodiment of God’s grace and truth. The apostle John opens his Gospel with how “the Word became flesh . . . full of grace and truth” (John 1:14) —Parables of Grace, by Joyce Koo Dalrymple #advent

Monday in The Message.

“The Lord invites us to know him….Knowing him happens when his Word meets us in our places of deepest need…when we’re filled with wonder and delight in his presence…when he instructs us on how to live life well, guiding us on the path of obedience.” —Holding the Word, by Bill Mowry #advent
