Please come again...
To any who have visited here recently, I apologize for my absence of late. The winter blahs seem to have gotten the best of me, and I am struggling to pull myself up & out. June now within sight, I anxiously await my arrival on the Cape for the summer months...and with my move, so, too, my spirits should lift and take flight. I look forward to spending time at the Nest, and hope you will find me home when you visit again.

Who is Jesus?
On this Palm Sunday, the beginning of Holy Week, the most important question we can ask is "Who is Jesus?"
In his famous book Mere Christianity, C. S. Lewis makes this statement, "A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic - on the level with a man who says he is a poached egg - or he would be the devil of hell. You must take your choice. Either this was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us."
