    Jesus shows the power of sacrificial giving through the two coins placed in the offering by a poor widow.

    PENNIES! ONE OF MY FAVORITE SAYINGS FROM GEORGE CARLIN IS ABOUT THE PENNY.

    We are poor witnesses when we fail to model God's love, mercy, and grace.

    In the book of John, Jesus often uses words and phrases that have more than one meaning to make a point. For example, when he discusses being “born again” with Nicodemus, he uses a word which means both “again” and “from above”. In today’s scripture lesson, ...read more

    Both the arrogant rich and the suffering poor get the same message: “today is not all there is.”

    Almost every commentator and preacher I looked at while preparing this sermon splits this passage of James into two parts. The first part, v. 1-6, is a discussion of the danger of depending on wealth. The second part, v. 7-11, typically focus on patience. Well, I’m going to buck the trend. Because ...read more

    God asks us to give our lives to him and serve him by serving others. We say to them, “God loves you and so do I”. We can reduce poverty. On Judgment Day, we will be judged by how we lived our lives and whether or not we loved others like Christ loves us.
