Seeing Jesus as the Truth

Seeing Jesus as the Truth

As I begin this post, I am reminded how difficult it is for my fleshly heart to process this chapter. It's hard to see myself for what I really am apart from Christ! It's not fun. But as Roy explains, only as we are willing to see ourselves for who we really are (sinners), do [...]

Seeing Jesus as All We Need

Seeing Jesus as All We Need

"Before Abraham was, I Am"(John 8:58). One of my favorite sermon series my husband Erik has preached is on the "I Am" statements of Christ in the book of John. These statements are not just found in John, but throughout the whole Bible. It all began in Exodus 3:14 at the burning bush when "God [...]

Seeing God in the Face of Jesus Christ

Seeing God in the Face of Jesus Christ

In 2018, when I originally sat  down to write this post on chapter 2 of We Would See Jesus, it was Easter weekend. What a perfect time to be reading this particular chapter in our study! What better place is there to see God than at the cross? This week, we are going to focus [...]

Seeing God: The Purpose of Life

Seeing God: The Purpose of Life

"My goal is God Himself, not joy, nor peace, nor even blessing, but Himself, my God." As we begin chapter one of Roy Hession’s We Would See Jesus, we are challenged to know what our purpose of life really is. This chapter was so relevant to me that I can't do it justice in this [...]

Reflections on The Calvary Road

Reflections on The Calvary Road

This remarkable book, The Calvary Road, has blessed me beyond words. Although we finished all 10 chapters, I had to write one more post to wrap things up. If you have the 2020 (or recent) printing of the book, you will notice the Epilogue at the end. These pages contain a series of interviews between [...]

Chapter 10: Protesting our Innocence?

Chapter 10: Protesting our Innocence?

In this last chapter of The Calvary Road, Roy shared the story of the Pharisee and Publican (Luke 18). This leaves us with the reminder of what our hearts are like apart from Christ. Having this reminder constantly before us will keep us humble and broken, continually running back to the Lord for His grace. [...]

Chapter 9: The Power of the Blood of the Lamb

Chapter 9: The Power of the Blood of the Lamb

"The message and challenge of Revival, which is coming to many of us these days is searching in its utter simplicity. It is simply that there is only one thing in the world that can hinder the Christian's walking in victorious fellowship with God and his being filled with the Holy Spirit - and that [...]

Chapter 8: Are You Willing to be a Servant?

Chapter 8: Are You Willing to be a Servant?

"Nothing is clearer from the New Testament than that the Lord Jesus expects us to take the low position of servants. This is not just an extra obligation, which we may or may not assume as we please. It is the very heart of that new relationship, which disciples are to take up with respect [...]

Chapter 7: The Speck & the Log

Chapter 7: The Speck & the Log

"If anyone would like to acquire humility, the first step is to realize one is proud. Nothing can be done before it."C.S. LEWIS I love that quote by Lewis and feel it goes well with chapter 7. Whenever I have read Matthew 7:3-5 about the speck and the log, I seem to have mostly overlooked [...]
