Christmas is getting close, and I want to give you the gift of having your mind blown and your face melted. In the Old Testament, King David travels to the Hill Country of Judah for three months. Mary travels for three months in our gospel for this Sunday to the Hill Country of Judah. King David dances before the Lord in the Ark.
The baby, John the Baptist, leaps into Elizabeth’s womb in the presence of God. King David asks, “How is it possible that the Ark of the Lord should come to me?” Elizabeth tells Mary and the baby Jesus in her womb, “How is it possible that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” Guys, this is the amazing thing about our faith: we can’t have the Old Testament without the New Testament, and the New Testament wouldn’t make sense without the Old Testament. And so, as we prepare for this Christmas, know that our faith is real, living, and true. This is Spirit Juice. Peace.

Spoiler alert! If you have or haven’t seen Obi-Wan Kenobi, the new show on Disney+, here is Obi-Wan Kenobi, who is struggling with a lot of fear.

Set Them On Fire
This Sunday’s gospel is incredible. It is Jesus Christ who is absolutely getting after it, saying to us that He has come to set the world on fire and how He wishes it was already blazing. I think a lot of the times we are not set on fire, or we forget that we have been given His love and given His Holy Spirit, that we walk around like zombies…
