We are hosting the Ryan Center Pastors Conference here in Memphis this weekend. We will be working through Isaiah 52:13–53:12 . Should be a rich time!

Excited to preach on Luke 2:8-12 tomorrow morning at Union Avenue Baptist Church. Christ is our joy.

My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you because you have redeemed me. Psalm 71:23 CSB

The one who loves silver is never satisfied with silver, and whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with income. This too is futile. Ecclesiastes 5:10 CSB

So then you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with the saints, and members of God's household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the cornerstone. Ephesians 2:19-20 CSB

The LORD helps all who fall; he raises up all who are oppressed. All eyes look to you, and you give them their food at the proper time. You open your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing. Psalm 145:14-16 CSB

May your compassion come to me so that I may live, for your instruction is my delight. Psalm 119:77 CSB

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace that he richly poured out on us with all wisdom and understanding. Ephesians 1:7-8 CSB

Patience is better than power, and controlling one's emotions, than capturing a city. Proverbs 16:32 CSB

Hallelujah! Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his faithful love endures forever. Who can declare the LORD's mighty acts or proclaim all the praise due him? How happy are those who uphold justice, who practice righteousness at all times. Psalm 106:1-3 CSB

Christ is risen!

Only carefully obey the command and instruction that Moses the LORD's servant gave you: to love the LORD your God, walk in all his ways, keep his commands, be loyal to him, and serve him with all your heart and all your soul. Joshua 22:5 CSB

Now then, why are you testing God by putting a yoke on the disciples' necks that neither our ancestors nor we have been able to bear? On the contrary, we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus in the same way they are. Acts 15:10-11 CSB

The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD, their refuge in a time of distress. The LORD helps and delivers them; he will deliver them from the wicked and will save them because they take refuge in him. Psalm 37:39-40 CSB

The path of the righteous is level; you clear a straight path for the righteous. Yes, LORD, we wait for you in the path of your judgments. Our desire is for your name and renown. Isaiah 26:7-8 CSB
