About Jesus for Regular People
Jesus for Regular People seeks to make Jesus known in a real way to everyday people of all backgrounds. Whether you’ve known Jesus for a long time and need a fresh look at who He is, or whether you’ve never even heard the name, my hope is that you will find something here that causes you to seek and know Jesus in a deeper way.
Jesus is more than an example to follow and a good teacher to hear about on Sunday mornings! He is the living God Almighty, a powerful and life-giving being, whom we can know intimately and rely on daily.
On this site you will find helpful resources and articles centered on the person of Jesus Christ, who He is, how to walk with Him on a daily basis, and why He matters to you in our current times. I'll also write a lot from the heart, as I live my life daily with Jesus and continue to learn and grow in Him. Below are the types of articles you may find in the Home blog feed.
Life Issues:
People have a lot of things on their mind - life purpose, time management, addictions, death, relationships, money, etc. Read and be encouraged in these areas from a Biblical perspective as I explore what God has to say and share from my own experiences with Jesus on how to overcome and find strength through life’s trials.
Current Events:
Whether it’s a broader topic, or a specific news story, Jesus is relevant and has things to say about what’s going on in our world today.
Holidays:
I love finding fun and creative ways to celebrate Jesus on the holidays. I'll share with you some of the activities and traditions that I've begun in my family.
From the Word:
The Bible is awesome, so sometimes I will share something cool that I've discovered or learned in my reading, or something that seems fitting for the time.
From the Heart:
Every so often, my heart just wells up with words that need to come out! These articles will be generally be more personal in nature and the topics could vary greatly depending on what God has placed on my heart.
How To:
These articles will be about how to do something. It might be something “spiritual” such as prayer or how to research what the Bible says about something, but it could be other things too, like practical ways to manage money or run a home. Regardless of what it is, I will incorporate Jesus, as He cares about everything you do. A relationship with Jesus doesn’t stop at the church door or the pages of the Bible!
Just Jesus:
Get to know the person of Jesus here. Who was He? What was His life like? What did have to say? What were his views on things? How did he relate to people?
Apologetics Topics or "Answers to Hard Questions":
This section focuses on big questions or doubts people may have about the Christian faith. How do we know Jesus really rose from the dead? What about the people who have never heard? How do we know the Bible is true? Aren’t all religions basically the same?
A quick note on apologetics: I used to think on some level that I could argue someone in to a saving relationship with Jesus. If I answered all these questions perfectly, they’d have no more excuses and would have to believe. While I no longer think my “perfect” arguments have anything to do with someone believing in Jesus, I do think it’s important to have solid answers to these questions.
Reflections on a Song:
It’s easy to be in the habit on Sunday mornings of singing along with the music, but not truly considering the meaning of the words, especially the hymns with older style lyrics. I’ve recently developed a fondness for these older songs and have come to appreciate their lyrics packed with rich Biblical truth. Read these posts to reflect on popular hymns and songs.
Thank you for visiting my site, and may you know Jesus more intimately each day.
