Sanctification | Falling for Julian

Last updated on: June 7, 2023 at 6:51 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Sanctification | Falling for Julian “For if we never fell, we should not know how feeble and how wretched we are of our self, and also we should not fully know that marvellous love of our maker.” Julian of Norwich, Showings, chapter LXI Friends of Julian of Norwich JulianOfNorwich.org My first reaction to this quote is I’m not sure falling is the best way to get to know the love of God. In a way, it seems like we’re putting God... Read more

With Each Passing Year…

Last updated on: May 30, 2023 at 12:00 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

With Each Passing Year… Sometimes it’s good to have a little conversation. At this point in my journey, it doesn’t take much to set me on the right course if I veer off a little. With each passing year… …my hopes of future research seem to be a stretch. I’ve had publishers review my work. They have made comments about some of my previous studies, particularly on the Gospel of John and on early liturgical prayers in the Primitive Church.... Read more

Reflections on Irises

Last updated on: May 30, 2023 at 12:08 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Reflections on Irises Years ago while I was taking a Psychology minor in my undergrad, my wife worked in a large, privately owned franchise (if that’s the right word) of group homes, all over the Bay Area. I would drop into the counselor’s office at times for shop talk. She had a very large lithograph of Irises in a beautiful frame. I was mesmerized by the work, so she eventually gifted it to me. As I share some reflections now,... Read more

Cruz is Graduating

Last updated on: May 22, 2023 at 1:28 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Cruz is Graduating It’s hard to believe all these years have come and gone, but he’s graduating. Every once in awhile I reserve the right to stray from the formula. This is that moment. I want to talk about my son. He’s graduating this spring. He gets excellent grades and he has completed dual-enrollment courses with college credit as part of his high school curriculum. He’ll be attending a state college next year to start working on his general education... Read more

Vignette | French Girls Question Church Attendance

Last updated on: May 15, 2023 at 12:47 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Vignette | French Girls Question Church Attendance “Yeah we go to church… on Easter and Christmas.” My cousin, my brother, and I had met 4 French girls in the mall. They could not believe we were getting ready to go to church on a Wednesday night. What kind of Christians were we? Well we certainly didn’t want to make them feel bad for being nominal Christians because we were making time with them, walking the mall. One of them had... Read more

Double Minded | When We Draw Near to God

Last updated on: May 8, 2023 at 9:11 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Double Minded | When We Draw Near to God Previous article: Double Minded | Torn Between Two Worlds CLICK James does not explain the details in a formula. He uses the term double-minded as a lifestyle – a label. So the answer is not in a particular formula. The answer is in a lifestyle change, a new way of life… that is the one thing. Is it better to try a particular diet for a while, or to commit to a life... Read more

Double-Minded | Torn Between Two Worlds

Last updated on: May 8, 2023 at 8:15 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Double-Minded | Torn Between Two Worlds In the movie City Slickers, Billy Crystal plays a confused, dissatisfied thirty-something character with a vague sense that life is passing him by. Jack Palance, – ancient, leathery, wise to the ways of the world (“a saddlebag with eyes”) – asks Crystal if he would like to know the secret to life. “It’s this,” Palance says, holding up a single, index finger. “The secret to life is your finger?” asks Crystal “It’s one thing,”...

About Scripture Schedules

Last updated on: May 7, 2023 at 10:08 am By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

About Scripture Schedules At this point, I have tried it all, or just about everything. I started out with the topical Scripture schedules put out by the NAE (National Association of Evangelicals). After a couple years I tried the NAE schedules to read through the Bible in a year. On average, it would take me 1 1/2 years to 2 years. I’ve read through the Bible many times since those early years. I’ve thought it’s best to remind yourself of... Read more

Scripture Shared at Church

Last updated on: May 2, 2023 at 12:26 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Scripture Shared at Church We change into the likeness of the one that captivates our souls! Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces. Psalm 34.5, NLT Blessed are those who don’t feel guilty for doing something they have decided is right. Romans 14.22b Opinion: I believe there’s a lot of masking guilt going on out there because you either have a clear conscience before God… or you... Read more
