Be like Jesus (Ph. 2:5-11)
Paul is urging the Christians in Philippi to “have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.” In other words, “Be Like Jesus.” But is that all he is to us—an example?

The place of piety (Jn. 12:1–8)
Whether you think you’re a pious person or not (or whether you think that other person is too pious or not), God still speaks and acts.

The two sons (Lk. 15:1–3,11b–32)
Whether we’re rebellious or whether we’re prideful, God has enough grace to come out and invite us into his kingdom. He comes out to us in our baptism, through his body and blood, and by his Word.

Another chance (Lk. 13:1–9)
A fruit tree that doesn’t bear fruit deserves to be pulled up. Not only does God keep us in the ground for another year – he gives us the most precious gift under heaven: his only Son.

Transforming power (Ph. 3:17—4:1)
Paul points to Christ as the one who is transforming us and bringing all things under his authority. What does that mean for us?

The bread of life (Jn. 6:25–35)
Have you been searching without finding? Look no further. Jesus is here.

Forgive us our sins
As we begin this Lenten journey, we hear Jesus teaching about almsgiving, prayer, and fasting. We focus on prayer by reflecting on the Fifth Petition of the Lord’s Prayer.

A mountaintop experience (Lk. 9:28–43)
The Transfiguration was a mountaintop experience. What happens when we come back down to earth?

A level playing field (Lk. 6:27–38)
Jesus levels the playing field. That can be good or bad news, depending on how good a player you are.

Resurrection (1 Co. 15:12–20)
When something is too good to be true, it usually is. Was Jesus really raised from the dead?
