Question: what is your security blanket? For Gollum, it’s the ring. For Tony Stark, it’s the Iron Man suit. For Woody, it’s his status as a favorite toy. In the gospel for the Sunday, Jesus gives us the foundations of discipleship, and one of those things is getting rid of the unhealthy attachments that prevent us from Jesus. We all have them. We all have those security blankets that bring us false security. The beautiful reality is that Jesus Christ is our ultimate safety and security, and He will never abandon us. So, my invitation for this Sunday is to identify your security blanket, reject your security blanket, and attach yourself to Jesus Christ, who is your ultimate security and safety. This is Spirit Juice. Peace!

The Supreme Gift
I don’t know if you’re like me, but every time I see a baby, I only want to hold and squeeze it because it’s so cute. Maybe that makes me weird. What this is called is the positive feedback loop. When we hold or care for an infant child, it releases oxytocin. It’s written in our biology that babies are cute.

Good Friday 2024
Okay, so this is a very solemn day, this is a very somber day. It’s Good Friday.
