God has an uncanny way of stepping in when things look like they’re petering out. It’s at times like these that God provides a glimpse of a new reality for the rest of us.

Christians and Christianity do not have all the answers that can be expressed in words. There are some things that simply defy explanation. One of the most powerful things a Christian can say to a person overwhelmed with the inexplicable in life is absolutely nothing.

Christians must renounce the tendency by some who attempt to glorify our God, my Jesus, through tragedy. They have fallen prey to the deception that attempts to explain the inexplicable by making the unexpected predictable, explainable, and eliminate the possibility of uncertain and unfathomable outcomes.

In the Christian life, there is a supernatural beauty hidden behind many of the perceived threats we have come to define in this world.

When you’re drowning in life, it’s essential to have some people close to you who are floating on the surface, splashing the water so you know which way is up.

“If you’re wondering whom the God of the Christian faith is, the One who asks, “Who do you say that I am?”

One of the unfortunate and avoidable aspects of Christianity and Christians today is that we have a tendency to be deceived back into the shadow of shame. We try to cover it up. We conceal our questions, doubts and confusion.

One of the problems with Christianity today is that people think the purpose of our faith is to become blessed.

Repentance – the inexplicable.

Do you realize that Jesus, Peter, Paul and the disciples at Pentecost were all referred to at one point in time in their lives as living out of their minds?
