What would we want others to know about Jesus if we decided to talk about him? Jesus is more than a teacher or a historical figure; he is someone who knows and loves each of us deeply. When we talk about Jesus, we’re sharing the message that he cares, forgives, and offers hope. He meets us where we are and wants to give us a life of peace and purpose. Thinking about what Jesus has done in our own lives can help us share these truths with confidence and sincerity.
Many of us might feel more comfortable talking in general about faith instead of sharing personal experiences. Sharing our own stories can feel vulnerable, and we might wonder if others will understand. But personal stories can be powerful—they connect people and show that faith is real and active. When we share our own experiences of Jesus, even in small ways, we help others see how God works in everyday lives.
We all have things that make it hard to talk about Jesus. Maybe we’re afraid of being rejected, or maybe we don’t feel “holy” enough to speak about faith. But like the Samaritan woman at the well, we don’t have to be perfect to share our experiences with Jesus. God works through our weaknesses, and he can use even our small acts of sharing to touch others. By taking small steps to talk about our faith, we can bring the hope of Christ to those around us.

In the Hebrew Scriptures high mountains were traditionally seen as holy places where one could encounter God. It was on the summit of Mt Sinai that Moses received the Law from God (Ex 19) and it was on Mt Horeb that Elijah encountered God in the gentle breeze (1Kings 19:9ff).Read More →

Jesus’ fulfilling was to be seen in contrast to annulling. Jesus would bring a new mindset to the Torah. He was not the first to do this. The prophets had consistently interpreted and studied the Torah in depth, teasing out its consequences, purifying it and applying it to the ever-changing social conditions. InRead More →

In our 21st c. Christian ears, what Jesus says is charming. But something is lost. We translate two different words from Matthew’s Greek manuscript. One word, “Kosmos,” we hear as “world,” as in “the light of the world.” The other we translate as “earth,” as in “the salt of theRead More →
