Created for Good Works (Ephesians 2:10)

Who will help women in Texas (and elsewhere) have their babies? This is where we come in…..
A patient from Texas holds a sonogram that she received in Shreveport, La., February 13, 2020. (Lila Engelbrecht/Reuters) It was ghoulish to read about Texas abortion clinics working through 11:59 last night to get as many babies aborted before the new heartbeat bill went into law. That’s what abortion is — the killing of an unborn baby. We can all agree that we want to help women. We don’t help w...
All talk: Has Pope Francis given up on getting something out of the China deal?
Pope Francis offered rare comments on the Vatican’s dealings with China, defending the Church’s controversial diplomatic efforts with the Communist regime while acknowledging that the process has yielded “questionable” results. The pope was unusually candid for a Vatican official about the challenge of engagement with China, while doubling down on commitment to the diplomatic process. But th...
Shells of Wonder
Last month my family embarked on a 5-week, 8,000-mile road trip around the United States. Through flaming deserts, sticky swamplands, verdant valleys and hills, and endless miles of corn (so much corn) we drove. A newfound sense of awe and wonder for the beauty, diversity, and vastness of our country was sparked. However, no sight or city captivated my imagination quite like the seashells. Coming ...
Jesus and Maslow
Maslow’s pyramid is well-known. We have our primary needs. In Jesus’ life we get another perspective. Maslow’s pyramid is well-known. We have our primary needs. If not fulfilled, we struggle. Hunger and thirst. They are primary elements of our daily life. They determine our everyday rhythm. We live from meal to meal. And if we don’t eat and drink, we’ll die. We cannot even think about the next lev...
What if there was no gravity?
As humans we are limited by laws and forces of nature. Jesus however breaks through those limitations and challenges our thinking. When I was young, I imagined a game in which there was no gravity. I could jump from a chair and fly through the room. The shock was big and the crash was hard when I ended up on the floor 😉 Daily, we’re dealing with our own limitations. Gravity keeps us ‘on the ground...
That is completely impossible!
Faith is believing that things can happen that you cannot imagine. Bigger than your imagination or explanation. Jesus challenges our belief by doing miracles. How often have you dealt with things you couldn’t imagine, but happened anyway in the end. Like with a magician.When I was younger I ruined my friend’s bike one day. What was I going to do? I could never fix this or cover the costs. How was ...
A perfect father is utopia
“I can do nothing on my own authority; I judge only as God tells me, so my judgement is right, because I am not trying to do what I want, but only what he who sent me wants. “If I testify on my own behalf, what I say is not to be accepted as real proof. But there is someone else who testifies on my behalf, and I know that what he says about me is true. John is the one to whom you sent your messeng...
Jesus is … multiple choice
People have different opinions about Jesus and most are positive. You can see Jesus in various ways. But the question is how does Jesus want you to see him? Once I was on the street interviewing people. Asking them their opinion about Jesus. Who do you think he is? What are your thoughts about him? I assumed I would get a negative answer by asking people, but the reality was the opposite. What I f...
What does the Bible say about rest?
Do you have a restless heart? Do you fail to quiet your mind? The Bible is full of texts about rest. Already in the first Bible book Genesis it becomes clear how important God thinks it is for us humans to take rest in our lives. The Bible book tells how God made the world and how God himself takes rest to enjoy his creation. In addition to physical rest, the Bible often speaks of rest and peace f...
