Catching Up

I have been away for a while and have not been very diligent in keeping up the blog. I will try to catch up today with the help of some pictures.


Here I am preaching Easter Sunday at Explore Church. We had a record turn out!!!


Some authentic Chicago Deep Dish Pizza. We were in town for the Gospel Coalition Conference.

Afternoon at Wrigley to watch a Cubs game! They lost.

After two straight days in the 90's...just a reminder from three months ago.

The 'Three Rs'

As Easter approaches I would like to provide a reminder of what Jesus' death on the cross accomplished.



The following is from Cross Words by Paul Wells.


The results of salvation can be described in a precise way by the 'three Rs': redemption, righteousness, and reconciliation. In the New Testament these words indicate the outcome of salvation, focused on the person of Christ:



  • the redeemer who provides freedom;

  • the holy one who establishes rightness before God;

  • and the author of reconciliation between God and sinners.
