Morning Reflections

What’s a reflection? It’s a window into God’s Word – a perspective on God’s power and presence as seen through the lenses of history, science, current events, or pop culture. “Christ plays in 10,000 places,” said the poet Gerard Manley Hopkins. One of the joys of living as a follower of Jesus is discovering his fingerprints everywhere, even in the most mundane circumstances.

Glenn’s Reflections provides leadership resources, inspiration, and encouragement for growing disciples of Jesus.
