Contributed by Lori Broschat on Feb 29, 2016

The more excellent way

LOVE IS OF GOD Jonathan Swift, author of Gulliver’s Travels, once said, “We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love one another.” Why is love so terribly difficult for us sometimes? Aren’t we followers of a God who is Himself love? Surely ...read more

God Revealed

Contributed by Leonard Davis on Mar 1, 2016

God has been revealing Himself to us in a number of ways. The clearest revelation we will ever have is found in the person of Jesus, the Christ.

The Prodigal God

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Mar 6, 2016

We don’t want to take God’s forgiveness for granted. Rather, we should be blown away by God’s grace, overwhelmed with a sense of gratitude that permeates all that we are, all that we do. And we should give this grace freely to others in forgiveness.

Luke 15:11-32 The Prodigal God When people make mistakes, they should be punished for them! After all, they’ve brought it on themselves! And if we don’t look out after ourselves, who will? It’s a cutthroat world out there. Every person for themselves. And truth be told, it feels ...read more

Knowing God

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Sep 12, 2017

God Is Love

Often this "strong affection" stems from a sexual attraction for that other person. We love other people when ...read more
