    We can survive loss by allowing ourselves to grieve, by receiving God’s comfort and strength, and by trusting in God’s sovereign purposes.

    As your pastor, I try to be as open and transparent as possible. I want you to know me well enough to see that the faith I talk about every week is real.

    The natural response when we see someone who is sick, or going through tough times, or marital difficulty, or financial reversals, is to say, "We’re praying for you." But for what should we pray?

    God says we need him and, even though we might not often think of it in these terms, we wish we didn’t need God. We don’t want to need God.

    A few weeks ago, I was given a list of 75 questions asked by our elementary kids about God.
