    Why is there so much trouble in the world and trouble in our lives? The trouble that we experience is just symptomatic of a single underlying problem that has become somewhat of a dirty word!

    The phrase "in remembrance of me" is familiar to Christians everywhere. It is carved into most communion tables or altars. It's repeated as often as our churches observe the Lord’s Supper. But what does this phrase mean?

    Text: For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way, after supper he took the ...read more

    When some teenagers asked me a question about the relationship between baptism and the Holy Spirit, it forced me to rethink some of my assumptions. Here’s how I presented to them.
