The news of Jesus death was wrong or at least incomplete. The news of our death can be wrong too.

It is Wrong Well here we are. Easter, the day we celebrate the main proof point of the Christian faith. The day when we dress up a little more, attendance is a little higher, when we often make a special effort to make it to a worship service. I had a little bit of dilemma.

Death By Lying Series

Contributed by Steven Simala Grant on Nov 25, 2009

Sin kills the soul, the community, momentum and our witness in the world.

Most people don’t really “like” sermons on sin. They don’t like hearing them, and (at least in my case) they don’t really like preaching them. I think that is because judgmental-ism and “holier than thou” attitudes have typically characterized our discussions of sin, and often the end result has ...read more

Belief In The Resurrection Of The Dead

Contributed by Sajeev Painunkal, Sj on Nov 6, 2010

The Sadducees try to ridicule Jesus with a stupid question about what happens in heaven. The answer of Jesus is not about the how but they why. If we don't believe in a life after death, we will have no purpose for our life on earth.

People sometimes ask stupid questions. They know it is stupid; but they ask them anyway. When somebody asks a stupid question, we can assume that either they are too naïve, or they are sarcastic. And most of the time they are not naïve; they are trying to make us look foolish trying to answer ...read more
