How high do you want to rank in God's kingdom? Are you ready to become simple again? Have faith like a child? It's funny that Jesus doesn't list a bunch of rules to follow or things to do. As we join Paul, he is with Festus but not having a "festus" kind of day and you can tell he is tired of playing games. He is bold in his faith and knows the law and how to use it. And as we close today in Leviticus, we see God punishing some of the priests for not following directions in their worship and sacrifices. Sometimes I wish God would intervene like that today with some of the people that call themselves preachers. The Gospel doesn't need you to fluff it up or make it anything that it isn't. God's love and his work on the cross is good enough! Join us as we Journey through some important passages and have a little fun doing it!

The Message Devotional Bible (Hardcover): Featuring Notes and Reflections
from Eugene H. Peterson
Find Your Way in Scripture.
Scripture is another world. One we find our way into. And one that finds its way into us. Steeped in Scripture, Eugene Peterson’s faith-filled reflections open the door.
The Message Devotional Bible invites you on a journey―call it practicing resurrection, call it eating this book, or call it simply a long obedience in the same direction. From the pastor who translated the entire Bible, The Message Devotional Bible sets you on the right path―devoted not just to the Bible but to God, who, in Jesus, became flesh and blood and moved into the neighborhood.
Open the door between Scripture and your world.
