Okay, so I promise I am not a pagan. In Greek mythology, the God Prometheus steals heavenly fire and gives it to the people on earth. The gods, especially Zeus, are so upset that they condemn Prometheus to eternal punishment because they are jealous and want to withhold the fire. This is the crazy thing. Today, on Pentecost, it’s the opposite, that our Father in Heaven gives us his fire. God gives us his divine life. He gives us the Holy Spirit to have divine life within us. This is the great news of Pentecost.
This may be bold, but there is no other religion on this earth that claims that God gives us his divine life and desires such intimacy with us. It is awesome. This is Spirit Juice, peace.

This is the only thing that you need to win the game. And if you don’t have the king, you lose. Jesus Christ is trying to get this across in the gospel today. You have everything if you have Jesus and nothing else in your life. But if you don’t have Jesus, if you don’t have the king…

Live a Grateful Life
The Academy Awards, the Grammys, the Oscars, the Emmys, they’re so awesome. The beauty of these award shows is that the first thing that happens when someone receives an award, they actually show gratitude.

Tonight, Jesus goes from the Last Supper to the Garden of Gethsemane to pray with His apostles. And He asks…
