The Bible shows us that one of the characteristics of God's nature is kindness.

If God forgives, why don’t we? Only fools grow bitter.

We cannot hope for things to be OK within us if they are not OK at home.

James is everywhere in the Bible, because the Bible is all about God’s big story and that story incorporates all of us.

You may renounce many things, but never give up the truth. Only truth can set you free.

The day will come when there will be no confusion about the future. 

 We often make mistakes by misjudging others.

Crises of faith help us to develop a mature understanding of Christianity.

Technology has not corrected arrogance: it has amplified it, aestheticised it and placed it at the service of new liturgies of the ego. There is no more practical or effective mechanism for dismantling the narcissist’s façade than public laughter.

By treating behaviour as a valid form of communication, we move away from a power struggle and toward a partnership.

We have to hold out until the end, when God will publicly reveal the truth.

Growth in the Christian life depends on knowing the will of God and obeying it, day by day.

In each of these four miracle stories, Jesus does something unexpected and teaches us things that are still relevant today.
