Happy Easter. He is risen. Jesus Christ is victorious over all sin and death, and we never have to be afraid again. Hallelujah. One of our students at the Newman Center created this artwork on our chalkboard, saying, A bunny will never love you like Jesus. And yes, it’s a little cheesy, but it is so true that we cling to so many other things than Jesus to make us happy. Jesus proved his love for us by dying and rising from the dead. For you, oh me, absolutely no money will love you like Jesus. No relationship will love you like Jesus. No amount of money or success will love you as Jesus loves you. You are darn right. So, from everyone here at Spirit Juice Studios, Happy Easter. He has risen. This season of Easter is not jumping into the darkness. It’s leaping into the light because he’s victorious. This is Spirit Juice. Peace.

Greatest Christmas Present
On Christmas Day, the math is surprisingly simple: the person who has God has everything, the person who doesn’t have God has nothing, and the person who has God plus everything else is no greater than the one who has God alone. That’s the heart of Christmas. God doesn’t just give us something. He gives us Himself. Jesus is the greatest gift ever offered, fully given and fully available to us. This Christmas, we’re invited to receive the gift that truly satisfies: God with us.

Guard Your Time Well
So in the gospel today, a sower goes out to sow, and the sower throws seed down on the thorny ground, and the thorns choke the seeds so the seeds do not flourish. We are often thrown onto the thorny ground, and busyness is one of the big things that really chokes us. Busyness in our lives chokes our relationship with Jesus, and we do not…

Obedient To Jesus
By location, being in two places at once. You know who could do that? Kill me. Padre Pio, reading other People’s Souls. You know who could do that? Who? Padre Pio. Loving Jesus with his whole heart. Who could that be? Yeah, you guessed it. Padre Pio. Pope Benedict the 16th set about Padre Pio.
