    A King In The Gate

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 3, 2001
    based on 61 ratings
     | 4,125 views

    David’s emergence from grief over Absalom was marked by his "sitting in the gate" -- a sign of healthy recovery in that he had begun to care for others more than for his own wounds, he had returned to the work of justice, he faced vulnerability, he resumed leadership, he could face his own grief.

    I This day the noise of battle, the next the victory’s won. Or so the king hoped. Much was at stake. His own future was uncertain; the nation’s stability was shaky; the confidence of those around him was low; and, most of all, his relationship with his son was in jeopardy. There had been a ...read more

    I’ve been using the parallel between Israel leaving Egypt, to our departure from the UMC, and their entrance into the Promised Land, as our joining the GMC.

    Demonic Destruction

     | 7,005 views

    In this chapter we see what happens when Satans forces are let loose for a short time - they torment and destroy billions of people - people who are not sealed by Gods mark.

    When bad things happen - storms, tidal waves, earthquakes, pandemics - people suffer and mourn loss - but often we console ourselves by saying that it is nothing personal - just "an act of God." I would argue about that - the creation fell along with man and so we suffer the curse put on it. But I ...read more

     | 4,831 views

    There are, still today, many congregations that are full of bickering and selfishness. These things tear the church apart and keep them from fulfilling God’s call in their life. Paul addresses this sort of church when he wrote to the church in Corinth. Hi

    1st Corinthians 1:1-9 January 20th, 2002 To hurting congregations! What matters most is what God offers first!

    For Christmas Eve Communion: what God has done in Christ means that peace has been accomplished, and this world’s contradictions have been resolved. The Father’s love has embraced us.

    “What’s done is done." We say it when we want to pronounce the final words, when we want to speak the ultimate truth. "What’s done is done", as if so obvious a truth really needed stating. "What’s done is done.” It becomes a way of insisting that there is no more to be said, no more to do, no ...read more
