Hospitality
When we think of commands in scripture, we might overlook hospitality. Although it begins as a command, God intends for it to become on of the most obvious things people see in His followers. Our hospitality flows out of His love for people.
What Mothers Do
Several times in scripture, God is described using feminine terms. On this Mother’s Day, we look at some of the characteristics that women share with the God who created them.
Selflessness
To completely love God and others, we have to lay down our own preferences. God calls us to be selfless, as Jesus taught in words and example.
Connecting as Family
God exists in community and created people to live the same way. His church is designed to be a community of family, where we should be connected in one another’s lives.

Empty
Although the religious and governmental leaders think they are controlling and manipulating the events leading to the crucifixion of Jesus, they are actually part of God’s greater plan that will overcome death for Him and us.
The King’s Cross
In the events of Matthew 26, we see a clear contrast of ways to interact with situations and one another. At every turn, Jesus is the example of seeing our world in the right way.
Ready to Serve
In Matthew 24 and 25, Jesus encourages His followers to be ready, watchful and active. This week we look at the climax of this teaching at the end of Matthew 25. The ready, watchful and active Christian is one who serves. By serving those in need, we serve Jesus.

Initiative
In scripture we find examples of bad ambition and good ambition. Philippians 2 warns about selfish ambition. In the parables of the good Samaritan and the talents as well as in the story of Zacchaeus, we learn about the importance of good ambition (initiative).
The End Is Near
Matthew 24 is a complex chapter where Jesus talks about the destruction of Jerusalem, His return and the final judgment. In all three cases, there is one common lesson: be ready.
Humility
One of the problems for the scribes and Pharisees in Matthew 23 is their pride. Jesus talks about the need for humility. Scripture even commands humility. There are many examples throughout the Bible of humble people of God. Our greatest example of humility is Jesus, and His humility is probably best explained in Philippians 2. There we can learn how to be humble like Him.
