Remember when Hiccup loses his leg in “How to Train Your Dragon”? It’s an emotional rollercoaster. The love that Hiccup has for his family and Toothless leads to him sacrificing one of his legs. Hiccup’s love costs something, and the gospel for this Sunday, Jesus, is very clear: it is easy to love when it’s easy to love, but real, true, authentic, Christ-centered love costs something. Are we just loving Jesus when it’s easy when everything is awesome? Or are we loving Jesus where it costs us something? Everyone knows what prevents us from Christ and takes that love to the next level. Will you love Jesus when it’s easy, or will it cost something? That true, authentic love that costs something? That leads us to heaven. This is Spirit Juice. Peace.

Jesus is the Bridegroom
I just got back from our women’s weekend here at the Newman Center, where college-aged women go off for a weekend and dive into what it means to identify as a sister, a mother, a daughter, and a bride, and it was so awesome sauce. All of these college-aged women were convicted of the fact that even though they were not married, they had a bridegroom, Jesus. This is why I love the…

Prioritize Your Soul
Have you guys ever heard of the term skinny fat? Yeah, it’s a thing. It’s a person who looks pretty normal on the outside, but on the inside, fat is growing over all of their organs. Even though you may look fine on the outside, it’s a silent killer. This weekend, we’re celebrating All Souls’ Day, where if we don’t take care of our souls, that’s like…

Pentecost
Blessed Pentecost to everyone. Come, Holy Spirit, “Veni Sancte Spiritus,” let the fire fall. An incredible day that we get to realize the perfect love of the Holy Spirit and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit into all of our hearts. The Trinity can be seen as the Father being the lover, the Son being the beloved, and the Holy Spirit being the love between the lover…
