How do you explain your faith to others?
What helps you "get it" yourself?
I marvel at the many ways Jesus tries to help Nicodemus understand faith. In the third chapter of John's Gospel, Jesus tries in many differing ways to help Nicodemus understand faith. (The part we'll consider this week is here.
Most confusing for Nicodemus, a Pharisee who came go Jesus under cover of night, was the concept of grace.
God didn't send the Son into the world to condemn the world.
This is not about judgment. This is about new life.
The Vernal Equinox -- Spring -- seems a wonderful time to celebrate faith as new life, transformed life, new birth.
