1. I’m building a dresser for my daughter. My approach to furniture is much different than filmmaking. When building a dresser or desk or what have you, I want everything to be very precise. I plan ahead, making drawings, being sure about the construction and measurements. I found a plywood distributor who will cut all the wood down to 1/16”. This makes all the difference, then all I need to do is assemble the pieces. 2. In contrast, when making a film, I long for accidents and surprises.

For the bulk of Hebrews 12, the writer encourages his readers to persevere in faith and “run with endurance” by “looking to Jesus” (Heb. 12:1–2), even through seasons of trial and discipline (Heb. 12:7). Endurance under such circumstances would indeed be difficult, but there was grace and strength to be had in abundance in the consideration of the crucified Christ (Heb. 12:3).

The narrative of Genesis 27 is one of the most familiar sequences in Scripture, as it regularly appears in kids’ Bible lessons. It is also a scene that feels as though it was ripped right out of a television sitcom.

In Luke 14, we are given one of the most intriguing and unique interactions in Jesus’s earthly career. We find our Lord reclining at a table surrounded by a coterie of religious elites and other high-ranking officials. While the prospect of Jesus sitting down to have dinner with a bunch of VIP Pharisees sounds more than a little abnormal, this is the third such occasion recorded in Luke.

One of the most heart-wrenching scenes in the entire Bible occurs in Genesis 45 when Joseph finally reveals his true identity to his brothers. As Moses records for us, “Then Joseph could not control himself before all those who stood by him. He cried, ‘Make everyone go out from me.’ So no one stayed with him when Joseph made himself known to his brothers” (Gen. 45:1).

As the apostle Paul brings his letter to the Galatians to an end, he offers one final appeal to the gospel of Christ crucified in the midst of which he, likewise, reveals that these concluding words were written with his “own hand” (Gal. 6:11). This, of course, makes the Galatian epistle unique since it is probably the only biblical piece of writing that Paul wrote himself from start to finish.

There isn’t any historical context or background given that might let us know why the psalmist put pen to paper in Psalm 130. The only clue of any kind that occurs is the title: “A Song of Ascents” or “A Song of Degrees,” which is a title that appears in fifteen other Psalms as well (Ps. 120—134). Although the history behind these songs remains a mystery, most scholars theorize that Israelite worshippers used them as they ascended to Jerusalem proper during the festival days.
