    And It Was Night

    Metaphorically speaking, the clock is ticking away in the background. The countdown has begun. Gethsemane lies ahead: as does our Lord’s betrayal, trial and death.

    AND IT WAS NIGHT. John 13:21-32. As the Lord’s ‘hour’ drew near that He should depart out of this world, He turned His attention more and more to ‘His own’ (John 13:1). After the foot-washing and the teaching which immediately followed it, Jesus “was troubled in spirit” (John 13:21). ...read more

    The Suffering Servant Of The Lord Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,753 views

    You can’t really appreciate the cross if you don’t know how bad you are every day, how guilty. The cross doesn’t mean anything if you’re a good person, comfortable and at ease with yourself. Do you know how much you need the work of Christ?

    Imagine what it was like for the Ethiopian man in Acts 8. He’s traveling south through the countryside, having just been to Jerusalem to worship. He’s a foreigner, but he’s devoted to the Israelite faith—for he knows it is God’s truth! Now on his way home, the LORD is still very much on his mind. ...read more

    Jesus was taking on his shoulder a social rejection that had to be just as troubling as the feel of the cross.

    Jesus Falls the First Time (Those of us who have had the privilege and honor of a pilgrimage to the Holy Land always make Jerusalem part of the holy time. There, although the Jewish Temple has been replaced by a grand mosque, we can see the very places we read about in the New Testament, the ...read more

    We don’t know if Simon complained all the way to Golgotha, or recognized Jesus and was glad he had helped, but his name--unlike most of those minor players in the Gospel drama-- has come to us.

    Holy Conversations Series: Holy Conversations: Talking about God in Everyday Life Brad Bailey – Oct. 1, 2023

    Intro I first heard of how God had come to us in Christ … early 1970s… through my HS and college years… there was nothing unusual about believing in God… and even accepting Christ as savior.

    Following Christ isn't glamorous. It is hard, but it is worth it.

    “Come! Be Crucified! We’ve Got a Cross for Your Back Too” Mark 10:35-45 Have you ever seen a church sign that read, “Come! Be Crucified! We’ve got a Cross for Your Back Too!” And yet Jesus was this up-front. You can’t accuse Jesus of false advertising. When James and John come up to Jesus ...read more

    Making A Name For Ourselves Fails The Test Of Joy

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 17, 2025
     | 267 views

    We have a tendency to believe our own publicity, and feel best about ourselves when we own the deeds to lots of stuff.

    Friday of the Sixth Week in Course 2025 “Let’s make a name for ourselves” hints that the first reading, from Genesis, is really talking about the results of human pride. Migrating people from the far reaches of Asia are imagined coming together in the area between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. ...read more
