When one considers the role that combat chaplains serve in our nation’s military, most will quickly conjure up a romanticized vision of cinematic men and women of God performing communion with the wounded. The fact of the matter is the life and service of a combat military chaplain is much...
Praise springs from a heart filled with awe and gratitude. Joy bursts forth from us in ourpourings of praise! How is that a sacrifice?

Unlimited: This is My Body Jul 15, 2024 1579 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take it; this is my body (Mark 14:22, NIV).” The strangeness of this Passover meal continues. And just as Christ himself broke the bread, so too no-one broke his body, except as an act of his own will (John 10:18.) Then Jesus gave the bread to the disciples as a gift, saying to them, “Take it.” Through these words, Jesus was establishing the symbolic link between the broken bread and his sacrifice at Calvary. You can be present at this meal, and eat the bread and drink the wine, but not participate in its meaning, because you don’t spiritually “take it,” as Jesus said, and so you don’t affirm from your heart that the body of Jesus was broken for your salvation.

Jesus takes the shame the world heaps on you.
Especially around holidays like July 4th in the United States, I think of all the sacrifices that have been made over the years for our freedom to do all the things we are able to do. No, the United States is not perfect, but we do enjoy much freedom that so many other countries do not. I get teary

Jesus left a perfect existence to live among us in a wicked world. In the face of rejection, threats, and jeers, He healed the sick, preached the gospel and expressed the Father’s love to and for humanity.

This verse profoundly reflects on Jesus' sacrifice. By bearing our sins on the cross, He enables us to die to sin and live in righteousness. His wounds bring us healing, offering redemption and new life.
Anthony Taylor
Through His suffering, we find peace and healing. His wounds serve as a source of redemption and restoration for humanity's transgress.
Have you ever considered that when you condemn yourself for something, you are saying that the blood of Jesus wasn’t enough? And when you take on and wear shame, you are saying Jesus’ sacrifice didn’t cover this particular thing for which you feel shame? Unfortunately, several religious communities

Peter rebuked Jesus about saying that he was going to Jerusalem where he would be killed. And Jesus in turn rebuked Peter for standing in his way with his worldly thinking. Now Jesus wanted to emphasise to the Twelve how different the spiritual reality is from the way that the world thinks. What Jesus said here were not the things that would make anyone popular. Jesus said these things after Peter had tried to block him from going to the Cross.
