  • We Share In Christ's Pain On The Cross

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 28, 2025
     | 106 views

    when someone is murdered, it catches all of us up short, and when the violence is carried out on children, especially as they are praying on the second day of school, no words can ever suffice to bring us back to anything like normalcy.

    Twenty-second Sunday in Course 2025 Humility, yes. I suspect that many preachers in this country have been humbled by the recent events at a Catholic church and school in Minneapolis last week.

    Fourth Sunday in Course 2024 Let’s all take a moment, maybe even shut our eyes if we are sitting down, and use our imaginations.

    What Jesus and the Church teach is not how to get extra points on our heavenly report card.

    Twenty-seventh Sunday in Course 2025 If we were to survey a thousand websites asking the question, “what’s wrong with the world,” we’d probably get at least a thousand different responses. But the best one I’ve ever seen came a hundred years ago from the British essayist and poet, G.K. Chesterton. ...read more

    Learning to trust God completely

    For the past 2 months, the song “The struggle is over” has resonated in my spirit. For the past 6 weeks, it has been the song of altar call as you petition God for an answer. This morning, Brother Melvin performed a praise dance to the same song that reveals the struggle is over. I petitioned ...read more

     | 3,641 views

    Our behavior should reflect our relationship with the perfect God, rather than our relationships with imperfect people.

    Once upon a time, long long ago, in a galaxy far far away, that passage from Matthew changed my life. Well, it wasn’t another galaxy, exactly, but it was certainly another world. And it certainly feels like a longtime ago. I started working for the Pillsbury Company over 30 years ago. ...read more

  • The Making Of A Deacon Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Aug 12, 2019

In fact that is what the title of deacon means, a servant, not a ruler, taskmaster, or overseer. The ...read more

     | 6,658 views

    Our Christian life is not to be confined to a closet. Our belief must be revealed in our practice. If we walk in Christ, then we must act as Christ would act because Christ is in us-our hopes, our love, our joy and our lives. We are Christ's reflection.

    At first glance, the reading from Hosea 1:2-10 doesn't seem to make sense. Would God really ask a prophet to marry a prostitute? Well, the answer is yes he can, and yes he did. You see, this was part of God's plan, and we all know that God's ways are not our ways, and sometimes God's ways don't ...read more
