2026 Reading Plan Reflections - Day 34
by Walt Martin on February 5th, 2026
The wedding garment is not a dress code. It’s not about external compliance or religious polish. It’s a symbol—repentance, righteousness, renewal. A life that has actually received grace.
In sacramental language, it’s an outward sign of an inward grace. Read More

2026 Reading Plan Reflections - Day 33
by Walt Martin on February 2nd, 2026
This parable isn’t about ignorance. It’s about entitlement. The problem wasn’t that Israel’s leaders didn’t know God’s law. It’s that they began acting as if God’s work existed to serve their authority, their system, and their sense of control. Stewardship quietly turned into possession. Read More

"People who were blind and lame came to Jesus in the temple, and he healed them." (Matthew 21:14 CEB)

2026 Reading Plan Reflections - Day 30
by Walt Martin on January 30th, 2026
n the parable of the workers in the vineyard, the scandal isn’t the wages—it’s the timing. God keeps showing up. All day long. Even at the last hour. Especially at the last hour.
This story is a direct challenge to our instincts about fairness, worth, and earning.
