«New wine»
Many people see Jesus only as a historical figure. The most religious, at least, aspire to have a slight connection with Him on the weekends. The truth is that the Savior’s story didn’t end with His death on the cross and ascension into heaven. Before He left, He said, “Surely, I am with you always,…

«Asleep or awake»
Jesus constantly warned his disciples: “You must also stay alert, for you do not know when the master of the house will return. Let him not find you asleep when he arrives unexpectedly.

«The strongest»
Jesus said, “If I drive out demons by the power of God, then the Kingdom of God has come and is among you.

«Dangerous times»
We are living in dangerous times. Violence is spreading in the streets. Many people are brazenly turning to robbery, even willing to kill for dishonest gain.

«Secret lives»
It’s strange, but those of us who believe in an Omnipresent God sometimes behave as if He were not present in what we’re doing. Precisely when we are doing wrong is when we completely lose awareness that God is there. Jesus stated, “For whatever is hidden is meant to be disclosed, and whatever is concealed…

«The harvest is plentiful»
In addition to his apostles, Jesus also appointed seventy-two other disciples, whom he sent out two by two to every city and place he was about to visit.
