Silence Doesn't Mean He Isn't Working
As we remember and celebrate the historic events of Jesus' death and resurrection this weekend, I can't help but ponder on that "Silent Saturday."
That day when the disciples and believers in Jesus just sat in their grief, stunned, replaying every moment of these last days.
Maybe even smiling for a moment when they remembered one of the miraculous signs, only to be reminded that their Savior's dead body now lay in a tomb.
Yet, in hindsight, we know that God was doing HIS BEST WORK in what only appeared to be a Silent Saturday.
There was a battle in hell that I doubt was absent of sound.
May we remember that in our darkest moments, when it appears that Jesus is nowhere to be found, He is still working.
Jesus is fighting that battle against your enemy for you.
Just sit and be still and wait in expectation of what He promised.
Sunday is coming.
'Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! The Lord of hosts is with us;
The God...

Did you miss Monday night's study?
New in 2021, every Wednesday afternoon at 4pm ET, I will be going LIVE on the Soul of Worship Ministry Facebook Page to do a full recap of that week's online Bible study!
If you missed both, you can watch the Facebook LIVE video here!
PLEASE NOTE:
I did start off with a prayer over our nation since the timing of yesterday's live was shortly after things began getting chaotic at the US Capitol.
I believe our role as believers is to proclaim the PEACE of Jesus Christ at all times. The authority of peace that Jesus gives us is the authority over all chaos.
May we continue to pray for peace and pray for our leaders, every day and no matter who is in office.
With that aside, dive deep into John Chapter 1 with me and receive a greater understanding of the following main topics:
- Jesus is the Eternal Word
- Jesus is the Light

- Jesus The Word Becomes Flesh

Introduction to the Gospel of John - The Eternal Word!
It felt so good to be back online last night for our Monday night Online Bible Studies!
God is revealing so much to us about His character and His fullness through this deliberately slow walk through the Gospel of John.
[Want to join the LIVE Bible Study on Monday nights? Register here!]
John provides such a beautiful revelation:
The Word is Jesus Christ and He is the eternal, ultimate expression of God.
John links Jesus the Word with the Word of God at Creation.
- Jesus was present originally with God!
In the beginning, God spoke the world into existence.
In the Gospel, God spoke His final Word, through the LIVING Word, His Son, Jesus Christ.
Jesus reveals the unseen God to us, just as a word reveals an unseen thought.
Jesus conveys to us:
- the thoughts of God
- the wisdom of God
- WHO GOD IS.
Mind blowing, right?
"In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it."
John 1:4-5
LIFE & LIGHT are two...
New Bible Study Series: Know God by Getting to Know Jesus! [Starts January 4, 2021!]
Authentic Worship Requires an Authentic Relationship.
How can we authentically worship a God that we don't know on a personal basis?
Let's start 2021 by deeply studying the Gospel of John and getting to know Jesus through His ministry on earth.
John 1:14 says, "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth."
The more we understand and comprehend the character of Jesus, the more we will understand and comprehend the character of Father God:
- the fullness of His glory,
- the fullness of His grace, and
- the fullness of His truth.
Challenge yourself to have a deeper, more meaningful and intimate relationship with the Savior of the World, Jesus Christ.
Join us beginning, Monday, January 4, 2021 to get the full Online Bible Study Series experience, but please know that this study is open at ANY TIME to new participants!
