This is Walk the Way. Brought to you by Q Place. I’m Jeff Klein. My brother Scott loves sports and competition. His competitive nature and his over the top athletic ability earns him a lot of respect with guys who are athletes. And although he’s not a professional—I’ll do a little big-brother-bragging here—Scott has been inducted into the National Softball Hall of Fame and is invited to play on all kinds of teams and in many different venues. These opportunities have put him in relationships with many others who don’t know Jesus. Yet, despite his competitive nature, Scott’s heart wants...Read more …

This is Walk the Way, brought to you by Q Place, I’m Jeff Klein. And I’m Pam Klein. A friend of ours–you know how Facebook goes!–posted a video about Joey Alexander, the teen jazz prodigy. Wow. Joey’s growth into a world class musician was not traditional. His father, an amateur musician himself, didn’t demand that his son take a specific path–no lessons or study with a master. Instead, he nurtured Joey’s natural interests by exposing him to great artists and letting Joey determine his own direction, listening to the likes of Thelonius Monk, Wynton Marsalis, Duke Ellington, and John Coltrane....Read more …

This is Walk the Way. Brought to you by Q Place. I’m Jeff Klein. Have you ever thought about actually doing the work of mission like Jesus did? Jesus approached people in a way that put the “ball in their court” by asking questions. Remember the story of the paralyzed man who’d spent every day of his 38 years by the pool? When Jesus comes upon him, he asks the man a surprising question: “Do you want to get well?” What?! Of course he does!!! Doesn’t he? Maybe. Maybe not. Think about it. If he gets well, he’ll have to...Read more …

This is Walk the Way. Brought to you by Q Place. I’m Jeff Klein. And I’m Pam Klein. I could not believe all the honking in front of my house the other day! That’s when I saw two cars, nose to nose, with traffic backed up behind both of them. It was school pick-up time – the time when our already narrow street gets even narrower as parents park their cars and walk up to meet their kids. Plus, there was snow on the ground, narrowing it even more. So I went outside. I wanted to negotiate a settlement. I...Read more …

This is Walk the Way. Brought to you by Q Place. I’m Jeff Klein. And I’m Pam Klein. This fall, Jeff and I decided we had to finish re-siding our garage before the bitter winter would hit Chicago. Our boys had made a valiant effort over the summer, but it was time to get the rest of it done. Between cleaning the interior, pulling the old siding off the last side and removing an old window, it was a family effort. Was everything perfect? Could some professional contractor have done it better? Maybe. But it was good—on so many levels—to...Read more …

This is Walk the Way. I’m Jeff Klein. No one wants me doing our household’s big food shopping, but I do stop at the market pretty often to pick up this or that on my way home from work. On one of those recent errands, as I parked my car, I noticed the roof rack of the car next to mine was packed full of stuff. So was its back seat. Then I realized that the car was still running. There was a lady at the wheel, surrounded by more stuff, eating what appeared to be her dinner. Did God...Read more …

This is Walk the Way. I’m Jeff Klein. It’s a new year and, as I often do at this time, I’m taking stock of many things and mulling them over. Among them, what it looks like for me, personally, to walk the way of Jesus. And Jesus’ words to the Pharisees found in Matthew come to mind: You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest commandment. And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. Most of us could...Read more …

This is Walk the Way. I’m Jeff Klein. The account in Mark about Jesus calling His first disciples is an interesting one. Some of the men were actually still fishing when Jesus came along the shore and called out, come follow me. But amazingly, they dropped their nets. The ancient language implies this action was a surrendering of all claim to their vocation. They fully followed. But what I find interesting is what Jesus says will be the result of that following. I will make you fishers of men and women. Following Jesus yields something very unexpected. You won’t necessarily...Read more …

This is Walk the Way, I’m Jeff Klein. What are you looking for this Christmas? One of my Christmas traditions is watching Chevy Chase’s Christmas Vacation. Clark Griswold wants the perfect Christmas and is on a quest for its ever elusive Spirit. Clark will not settle for anything but the perfect Christmas tree. He spends his entire Christmas bonus on his family and strings thousands of lights on his house. He sets a place for every crazy relative around the Christmas table—all because of Christmas. I can relate to Clark. If this Christmas is anything like last year, I’ll search...Read more …

This is Walk the Way. I’m Jeff Klein. Collinsville Congregational Church is a small, pretty traditional church in Connecticut. But Pastor Jim heard about Q Place, gathered a team, and planned their first group. They knew that God wanted them to begin something for those who don’t know Jesus. And it’s awesome. Their Q Place has met a few times and the people coming say they’re blessed by a safe place to come and unpack their spiritual questions. Jim and his team can’t wait to begin their next group. And starting just isn’t that hard! What are you doing to...Read more …
