The important thing is to realize, be grasped by, and transformed by, the vision of our Triune God.

The gift of the Holy Spirit is for each and every one. The potential love and power of God working in us is limited only by our imaginations.

We can’t fully understand how the ascended Lord Jesus Christ is ‘Lord of all’, but are called to witness to his love and power, as He calls us to live into the Kingdom of God.

The risen Christ wants to enjoy our hospitality – not at our front door but completely within our homes.

We are all a work in progress – being stretched to love each other – all of humanity, as God does

God knows you like a shepherd knows their sheep. We need to live out the truth of “The Lord is my Shepherd.”

How can we accept the resurrection of Jesus Christ? You will never see or accept something that you will not allow yourself to imagine!

Though we may never understand or accept the various atonement theories around Jesus’ self-sacrifice, the most important thing to understand and accept is God’s redeeming and eternal love.

Taking stock of the place the Jesus, the Christ, holds in my life – so that I can receive the love of God so painfully and perfectly given on the cross.

Repentance isn’t necessary for God to love us – it’s necessary for us to receive the fullness of God’s forgiving love.

Accepting that everything we have and everything we are is ultimately a gift of God’s grace, and the serious need for ongoing repentance – not to avoid punishment – but to embrace God’ love for us.

The Old Testament People of God showed us that we need to pray about calamity in the world (like Russia’s war with Ukraine) even if we don’t know how God will act - God is still Lord!

Jesus’ temptations in the wilderness – overcoming them for us, and showing us how, with God’s grace, to align ourselves with God’s Word to overcome the temptations we face.

Our ‘mountaintop’ experience – our opportunity to be engaged by the Risen Christ – is offered to us in every Eucharist celebration. We need to open ourselves to receive the invitation!

Forgiving and loving those who have injured you can only be done by looking to, and receiving grace from – God.

Christ’s beatitudes (“Blessed are …”) teach us about living under God’s reign. As his disciples, we need to align ourselves – our attitudes and our actions – to living under God’s reign.

Like Isaiah, Peter and Paul, overcoming our resistance to, and responding to, God’s call to us.

gape love is essential for Christian disciples to be able to express their gifts to the benefit of others. It’s a kind of spiritual ‘vitamin D’ that we can generate from being in the light of the Son.
