That our ultimate picture of success is a crucified Messiah means any conversation about success will be incompatible with a "bigger is better" mentality

Quasi modo geniti

John 20:19-31

In the name of the Father and of the + Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Christ is risen! [He is risen indeed, Alleluia!]

Ah, yes, the passage about "doubting Thomas." How we love to pick on this poor man because of what he said, "Unless I see in His hands the imprint of the nails, and put my finger into the place of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe," and also for what Jesus said to him, "Reach here with your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your hand and put it into my side; and do not unbelieving, but believing." However, this lesson is not merely about "doubting Thomas," but of all who are numbered among the believers (which includes Thomas).
