     | 11,415 views

    Ponder the Palm Sunday Paradox 1) An almighty king rides to his death. 2) A humble king commands our praise.

    Do you know what a paradox is? A paradox is a true statement that at first appears contradictory. Here’s an example: “The more you learn, the less you know.” Here’s another paradox: “Less is more.” Christianity is filled with paradoxes. Take the Palm Sunday ...read more

     | 11,968 views

    We compromise because we believe in alternatives and we do not believe in the grave consequences of our actions. Don't fall for the devil's lies. Hold fast to what God says. God's commands are inherently good and not impossible to be obeyed.

    We will be looking into the book of JUDGES and learn from the mistakes of the past. • The book of Judges starts with “After the death of Joshua…” • It spans about 400 years, from the time of Joshua’s death to the rise of monarchy (when the people demanded for ...read more

     | 7,930 views

    There is a deadline that is waiting for all of humanity - that final day of time when all people will need to be ready to stand before Jesus. However, this is a deadline that Jesus has transformed into our lifeline!

    Deadlines. We all have them. A specific time at which something must be completed or there will be consequences. Whether it’s an assignment at school, a project at work, a bill that needs to be paid, an RSVP to a wedding reception that needs to be sent in. They all have deadlines – a figurative ...read more

    Empty Calories

    You are already hungry since I fed you yesterday. If I fed you every day you’d still be hungry because it is not your body that is hungry but your soul.

    What do you suppose the crowd was thinking, there on the Sea of Galilee, that spring afternoon? They had been following him, watching him heal sick people, hearing him teach, wondering and speculating. A few would drop out, having seen enough, but they’d quickly get replaced by others. Close-knit ...read more

    Two Mountains: A Choice Between Fear And Grace

    Contributed by Jessie Manuel on Aug 18, 2025
     | 414 views

    Gracious God, as we open Your Word today, let it speak to our hearts and transform our minds. Help us to see the difference between the old way and the new way, between fear and grace, between bondage and freedom.

    Church family, I want you to imagine standing at the foot of two mountains. One mountain is shrouded in darkness, smoking with fire, echoing with the sound of thunder. The other mountain is bathed in light, filled with celebration, where angels sing and the righteous have gathered. Today, the ...read more

    It is the intuitive mind alone that can penetrate the essence and heart of a parable. Then it becomes a living reality, thoroughly relevant to one’s own life.

    “To throw alongside” a story with cryptic meaning is called a parable in Greek. In Zen Buddhism, a parable is like a “koan,” which is a spiritual inquiry using perplexing language intended to rouse a student’s innate wisdom-mind to apply it to their own life. As Rabbi Ibn Ezra said of parables, ...read more

     | 573 views

    Jesus is asking us today not so much as “how can I find a gracious God? But “How can I find God in my enemy?” And, how can we be children of God in real life without loving our enemies?

    The fictional Klingon language from Star Trek has no words for love. Of course, the Klingons were creatures of pure logic, not emotion.
