    The Two Meanings Of "End"

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 3, 2013
     | 2,243 views

    There are two meanings to "end," and as we reach the conclusion of a liturgical year, we must plan for both.

    One of the legends circulating that purports to prove the superiority of the new liturgical calendar and new lectionary is that in the Extraordinary Form, we hear Scripture readings that really belong to the beginning of the year, not the end. Let’s be honest. We aren’t talking about ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 16, 2013
     | 5,463 views

    A look at the dangers that come with presuming on God giving a second chances. Thankfully, He is a God who loves giving second chances, but sometimes we get in trouble by expecting they'll always be available.

    DOES GOD ALWAYS GIVE A SECOND CHANCE? Second chances are a gift, not a right. - Jonah 3:1. - We should not presume on God’s mercy. - There are times when a window of opportunity on a second chance closes: a. Timing issue with the opportunity. - Example: my church plant getting ...read more

    How do we treat Thanksgiving when the culture is trying to drive God out of that feast?

    Thanksgiving Day 2013 Now Thank We All Our God “And now bless the God of all, who in every way does great things; who exalts our days from birth, and deals with us according to his mercy.” These words, from the wisdom of Jesus ben Sira, or Sirach, inspired the hymn “Now Thank We ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 4, 2019
     | 4,148 views

    we must discern as families how to respond to the attacks of secular culture, and use our assets, out time, talent and treasure, to restore beauty to our worship, teach religious and moral truths to our communities, and do everything we can to show goodness to the world–to become saints.

    Epiphany 2018 The Cost of Discipleship When we compare the stories we have been reading in St. Luke’s Gospel with the reading today from St. Matthew, we are tempted to wonder if this is a story about two different families. On Christmas day we see Mary and Joseph being turned away from every inn ...read more

    A Different Angle Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jan 14, 2019
     | 3,053 views

    Sometimes we need to strive to understand important truths more deeply. Sometimes we need to be admonished to stay true to those truths, and to interpret events through their filter. Sometimes we need to find our unity through these.

    A Different Angle Introduction to I John 1. Being well-intended does not always work. One blogger writes, “Today, I found out that shutting off the heat in the rental property my parents owned was a bad idea. The water froze and the pipes burst, causing the whole kitchen ceiling to fall down. The ...read more

    Contributed by Ken Henson on Aug 4, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,057 views

    The judgment of God seems sweet when we think of the eradication of evil from the world. But how bitter the judgment will be when it comes. God’s job is judgment. Our job is love.

    CHAPTER 10 1. And I saw another powerful angel coming down from heaven, clothed with a cloud, and with a rainbow on his head, and his face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire. 2. and having in his hand a small book laying open, and he placed his right foot on the sea, and his left ...read more

     | 11,023 views

    Significance is a matter of perspective—man's versus God's.

    Our perception of things is unreliable; we often think we have the right perspective on an issue when in fact we are way off. Tom Wheeler, former CEO of Mass Mutual Life Insurance Company, tells a charming story that illustrates this point: He and his wife were driving along an interstate highway ...read more

    God exists. I am not God; you are not God.

    25th Sunday in Course 2017 God’s thoughts are not our thoughts, and God’s ways are not our ways.

    If you could sum up chapter 3 of Philippians, it would be that Paul talked about things and how they can be a blessing or they can be a hindrance.

    Philippians 3:19-whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame—who set their mind on earthly things. 20-For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, (NKJV) 19-They are headed for destruction. ...read more
