I suspect that every mother desires great things for her children, that they will grow up and become successful, dignified, someone who others respect and look up to, someone a mother can be proud of. No mother had greater aspirations for this than Mrs. Zebedee, the mother of Jesus’ disciples, James and John, also known
When I think of peace or Shalom from a Biblical perspective, I cannot imagine a more precious commodity to be in possession of. A tranquil mind, an unburdened conscience, rest in our soul and uninterrupted, ever-increasing joy and gladness in our hearts and lives were what we were created for. Yet, because of sin, we

In my previous post I began to look at Jesus’ imperative statement in John 4:24 regarding our worship of God, our acknowledgement and pursuit of Him as the object of our deepest love and source of our greatest joy. In this passage Jesus states that “God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship
The worship of our infinitely glorious God comes to life for us in the book of Revelation wherein we are given a portal into the spiritual world to see, through apocalyptic symbolism, that Heaven is a place of unending worship of God by both the Holy angels and most importantly by those men and women

One of the more interesting and enlightening interactions Jesus has with a person during His three plus year ministry on earth is found in John 4:1-42.
