A Glimpse Of Heaven (Exodus 24:1-25:8) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 2, 2023

Supersize Me!

Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Mar 12, 2006

In order to avoid the trap of self-indulgence, we need to: 1. Reject the spirit of entitlement and embrace a spirit of gratitude. 2. Reject excess and move toward moderation. 3. Reject the temporal and focus on the eternal.

The Difference

Contributed by W Pittendreigh on Feb 22, 2005

Peter and Judas are very much alike! Both are apostles. Both rise up the ladder of success -- Peter the spokesman of apostles and Judas the treasurer. And both deny and betray Christ. The difference is -- to whom to they turn in their darkest moments?

The Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper is full of meaning. It is a spiritual food that nourishes our souls. It is a part of worship Christ commands of us. It is an experiencing of the presence of Christ in a real and tangible way. It is something we do as a community – we never ...read more
