He’s Everything from A to Z

Posted by Matt Tullos December 8, 2017December 8, 2017Uncategorized

The incarnation is God’s message that God the Father holds nothing back in order to make room for us. So common and yet so extravagant! Heaven and earth embraced that night and this is what we celebrate. It’s also is a grand proclamation that if you enter the story, you’ve got everything you need in more »

Your Concerned Friend…

Posted by Matt Tullos December 6, 2017December 6, 2017Uncategorized

Dear Joseph, I’m worried about you. I wouldn’t be your friend if I didn’t try to speak some truth to you. Please don’t get me wrong–I was all for this marriage until the stories started. Reality is hard to swallow when you are in the early months of a relationship. You and I both know more »

The Advent of Amazing

Posted by Matt Tullos December 4, 2017December 4, 2017Uncategorized

He scattered stars to the outer regions of infinity. He separated the dry land from sea. This great God created each cell as intricate, alive and dynamic as a tiny city. The One that created Jupiter and the Milky Way would choose to create me. Our skin and the inner workings of the human body… the blood and bones, more »

A View from the Manger

Posted by Matt Tullos December 3, 2017Uncategorized

Beloved, Look closer into the manger. I so long for you to look into My eyes. There was a time you saw Me as Someone who tolerated you and all the messiness of your life, not knowing for a second the depth of the love I offer. I came to you, first, as a baby more »

We are Here Because They Were There

Posted by Matt Tullos November 20, 2017November 20, 2017Uncategorized

James Frazee was a 90-year-old man in our church. He stood out to me primarily because he was the oldest man in our contemporary service. Not that electric guitars or drums were his preference. He just wanted to be there with his grandkids. It wasn’t until he got sick that I learned the backstory of more »

7 Reminders during Grief

Posted by Matt Tullos November 18, 2017Uncategorized

Throughout Dad’s illness and death, I knew one thing. I would learn. God has given me the gift of experience. Yes, gift. C.S. Lewis said it perfectly: “Experience: that most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God how you learn.” This post is a reminder to me. I need to remember this experience as more »

Prayer is Releasing

Posted by Matt Tullos November 9, 2017Uncategorized

In every line of the Lord’s Prayer, there’s a common thread. It’s releasing. We scan through the words and notice that the Lord’s Prayer is radically different from the modern mantras of mortal yearning. Instead of coming to God to change our circumstances, we encounter a releasing of ourselves into the gracious hand of the Father more »

3 things I learned at Louisiana College

Posted by Matt Tullos October 18, 2017Uncategorized

Recently I was asked to share about my time at LC. This invitation allowed me to reflect on how this school, from 1981-1985, changed the way I looked at the world, my faith and my call.  I thought of three things LC taught me inside and outside the classroom. 1. I learned the value of more »

Today is Most Noble

Posted by Matt Tullos October 12, 2017Blog, Poetry, Sermon Readings, Spoken Word

God holds the future and redeems all of yesterday. But today is closer to me. What an amazing concept today, right now, really is. Today- I hope you aren’t planning a siege on your enemy. I hope you aren’t judging the person in the room. I hope you aren’t swallowed up in regret. I hope more »

The World’s First Smart Phone

Posted by Matt Tullos September 7, 2017Blog

Siri and I are having issues. I believe I lean too much on her and I forget that she does not have the capability of an administrative assistant, as most commercials would assume. She’ll take me to Cracker Barrel when I want to go to Kroger. She’ll call my blood donation center when I ask more »
