“How will you love God and love your neighbors this week even when conflict arises?”

“As we move through Holy Week -- the week between Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday as Jesus journeyed his final days to the cross-- how will you prepare your heart for the most important celebration on our Christian calendar: Easter morning?”

“Where do you find your ultimate center? Is it in the hope that God promises, which is splayed across the pink of a spring evening or in the purple crocuses that push through the March snow?”

“In what ways do we underestimate the magic of God's creation? When can you find time this week to witness the wonders outside your window?”

“How might you move through your days enjoying God's loving presence, living more fully because you hold the Jesus end in view?”

“As you move through your days, drawing ever-closer to our rebellious savior, what steps will you take that buck the norm, carving a new path towards eternal life with our Risen Lord?”

“What can you do this week to bring light and healing to those around you, remembering the example of a fiercely dedicated yellow lab from Mexico City?”

“The Lord does not call us to gaudy displays or flaunting religion. He simply wants us to come before him -- privately, quietly, in our messiness, in our questioning, in our disappointments, in our sorrow, in our anxiety, in our apathy. And when the canvas is wiped clean, he will begin to paint anew.”

“God intends for each of us to flourish, Friends, and in loving one another -- as Jesus commands us -- how can we ensure that those around us are flourishing as well?”

“Where can you pause this week to breathe in the rainbow spray of the rain, to listen to the snapping of branches outside your window, to watch the purple hue of winter across the horizon?”

“The more fully you believe that God has been generous with you, the more generous you will be with those around you.”

“How is God speaking to you through the majesty of His creation?”

“How will you spread Christ's joy today?”

“As stewards of the earth, how far are we willing to go in our fulfillment of that weighty responsibility?”

“When Jesus asks us to give up everything and follow Him, he means everything: our habits, our ambitions, our hurts, our weaknesses, our anxieties, our fears, our dreams, our hopes.”
