Look to Jesus

Renowned New Testament scholar N. T. Wright, responding to a question about what he would say to his children about Jesus on his deathbed:

If you want to know who God is, look at Jesus. If you want to know what it means to be human, look at Jesus. If you want to know what love is, look at Jesus. . . . And go on looking until you’re not just a spectator, but you’re actually part of the drama which has him as the central character. [1]

Voice of the Day: Brendan James

Below is the official music video of a song by Brendan James called “Simplify.” I love the line in the refrain that says “Stop for a minute, wipe the progress from our eyes … dream like we’ve never dreamed, for less, not more, this time …” It’s a great line that expresses the call of Christian simplicity.
