    The reasons for grief are many, such as the loss of a loved one, the loss of health, or the letting go of a long-held dream. Dealing with a significant loss can be one of the most difficult times in a person's life. Jesus sees God’s dream for Jerusalem slipping away.

    Sermon: What Jesus’ Grief over Jerusalem Reveals Matthew 23:37 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones God’s messengers!

    The Book of Colossians covers some very important topics. None are more important than what we are going to cover in this passage of scripture. This passage of scripture has a great deal to say about PRAYER.

For example, Carolyn Copeland gives us this story in the Christian Reader. - The daughter of our pastor was asked to give the closing prayer at her high school graduation. A Jewish student was asked to ...read more

    There are moments in history when God’s people cannot afford to be spiritually asleep. Moments when we must wake up, watch, and wisely walk. In David’s day, the men of Issachar were like this. They understood the signs of the times and knew what Israel should do.
