Jesus Lite, Part 3
09/15/16 /6 Comments/in Random Thoughts, Uncategorized /by Susie ShellenbergerThe true gospel is a call to self-denial. It’s not a call to self-fulfillment. This is in opposition to what we often hear— that Jesus wants you well, rich, free from debt and happy. But that’s “Jesus Light.” It’s a watered-down gospel that isn’t found in the Bible— yet it’s a trending message that’s prevalent […]
Jesus Lite, Part 2
09/08/16 /4 Comments/in Random Thoughts, Uncategorized /by Susie ShellenbergerThe call of Christ to repent (turn away from sin) is radical. Many Christians have asked Jesus for forgiveness (confession) . . . but still haven’t repented. In other words, they’ve never walked away from some of the sin they’ve sought forgiveness for. Many hold onto some “favorite sins,” attend church, join in the praise […]
Jesus Lite
09/01/16 /4 Comments/in Random Thoughts, Uncategorized /by Susie ShellenbergerI have fond memories of being able to purchase $3 worth of chocolate-covered peanuts from the candy counter at Sears Department store when I was a little girl.

But I’ve discovered a place where it’s expected and desired for you to ask for more! Where? At the feet of Jesus. He desires us to want more of Him! So each day I’m asking, “Give me more of You, Jesus!” And just what […]
Second Chance

If we get figs next year, fine; if not, I’ll cut it down’ ” (Luke 13:8-9 TLB). There were no figs on this tree—only leaves. This parable is about us individually, […]
Enjoy the Lord
08/11/16 /1 Comment/in Random Thoughts, Uncategorized /by Susie ShellenbergerKing David had just witnessed the successful delivery of the Ark of the Covenant. (2 Samuel 6:12-15). This was certainly cause for celebration, because earlier in this same chapter, Uzzah had been unsuccessful in his delivery of the Ark. Have you ever been so full of joy that you couldn’t contain it? If so, you […]
You’re the One!
08/04/16 /5 Comments/in Random Thoughts, Uncategorized /by Susie ShellenbergerLast week we chatted about King David’s sin with Bathsheba. It all began with being in the wrong place at the wrong time. His defenses were down. He wasn’t guarding his heart. After Bathsheba became pregnant, David had her husband (Uriah) killed. We can’t be certain how much time passed, but eventually Nathan the […]
