BEST

Levi Ketelsen, the Journey Church pastor at the Burlington campus is fond of saying in every e-mail: 'The best is yet to come.'  

True that.

It is the quintessential expression of the Good News of Christ.  It was the unspoken theme of Jesus' ministry.  Everything He did - the words He spoke - the acts He performed - showed there was a new sheriff in town.

'The best is yet to come.'

Good life had been replaced and trumped by the best life possible.

Life was Jesus' specialty - not death.  He didn't really care that much for funerals.  He kept going to them and raising the person to life.

As R. McKinley says: 'Jesus doesn't do funerals, not even His own.'

The best life can be yours - today.

And be blessed.
