Psalm: 67 Meditation Luke: This is Luke’s rendering of the call of the first disciples by Jesus. Jesus commandeers a boat from Peter and then Jesus preaches to the crowd that had gathered. Later He sends Peter out to fish (under mild protest) who then makes a great catch of fish. Peter and his partners …

Psalm: 34 Meditation 2 Kings: The lives of Elijah and Elisha have too many parallels as to make it difficult often to distinguish between the two. This is a case in point. While the details differ, the story is essentially the same: a young man dies, and the man of God raises him from the …

Psalm: 49 Meditation Luke: This passage, though short, is rife with meaning. How near death was Jesus at this point. Well, the Romans and everyone else did not want to be cheated out of their “show” so they grabbed a man of Cyrene (Africa) to carry Jesus’ cross. As Jesus haltingly ambles on His personal …
