Christmas is getting close, and I want to give you the gift of having your mind blown and your face melted. In the Old Testament, King David travels to the Hill Country of Judah for three months. Mary travels for three months in our gospel for this Sunday to the Hill Country of Judah. King David dances before the Lord in the Ark.
The baby, John the Baptist, leaps into Elizabeth’s womb in the presence of God. King David asks, “How is it possible that the Ark of the Lord should come to me?” Elizabeth tells Mary and the baby Jesus in her womb, “How is it possible that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” Guys, this is the amazing thing about our faith: we can’t have the Old Testament without the New Testament, and the New Testament wouldn’t make sense without the Old Testament. And so, as we prepare for this Christmas, know that our faith is real, living, and true. This is Spirit Juice. Peace.

The Greatest Victory (Easter Sunday)
The greatest victories we’ve ever seen, championships, comebacks, unforgettable moments, don’t even come close to what we celebrate on Easter.
On this day, Jesus Christ conquers death itself. The Resurrection isn’t just a powerful moment in history. It’s proof of who He is. Jesus said He was God, and He proved it by rising from the dead and opening the way to eternal life for all of us.
So the question this Easter is simple: will you say yes?

He Is Actually Real
If you’re a Marvel fan, what would it be like if Iron Man was real? If you’re a Harry Potter fan, what would it be like if Hogwarts was real? If you’re a Pokemon fan, what would it be like if Snorlax was real? Now, imagine that you’re an Old Testament Jew. What would it be like to realize that the Messiah was real?
