    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 1, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 13,789 views

    "I AM the resurrection and the life. Do you believe this?" asks Jesus.

    THE RAISING OF LAZARUS. John 11:14-46. The family of Lazarus, Martha and Mary of Bethany were especially loved by Jesus (John 11:3). Yet the sovereign Lord, for wise reasons of His own, did not rush to the bedside of His sick friend. It was no doubt as with the man born blind, “that the works of ...read more

    Following Jesus in keeping the new commandment of love.

    THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE. John 13:31-14:11. The sixth significant “I am” saying of Jesus in John’s Gospel is “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no one comes to the Father but by me” (John 14:6). Before we come to look more closely at the content of this remarkable verse, let us ...read more

    Waiting For God

    We know from whence our help comes...

    WAITING FOR GOD. Psalm 40:1-11. “Waiting I waited” (Psalm 40:1) begins the Hebrew of this familiar and much loved Psalm. This gives rise to the Latin title, itself a dynamic equivalent, which translates “Expectantly I expected.” This appears to be not so much anxious hope, as some have ...read more

    Jesus And The Religious Leaders In The Temple

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 14, 2015
     | 3,989 views

    The fig tree looked good on the outside but it wasn’t producing any fruit. The religious leaders looked good on the outside, but they didn’t provide for the people. Jesus decreed that he would let them fade and raise up something new in their place.

    The events in John 2:18-25 occur just after Jesus has chased the moneychangers and the sellers out of the temple. The religious leaders wanted to know who gave Jesus the authority to do what he did in the temple. Jesus did not give them an answer because he knew that the religious leaders did not ...read more

    Conceiving Iniquity And Bringing Forth Wind Series

     | 3,941 views

    We learn from bitter experience how wrong it is to ignore God's will and do things our own way. If this leads to pain, even the pain can be a way to focus us on the right way.

    Thursday of 15th Week in Course Lumen Fidei Let’s be frank about today’s reading from Isaiah, because he is speaking about a Hebrew people who did not do God’s will. They chased after what he calls “other lords”–the Baals and Astartes. They engaged in all ...read more

    God wants us to become aware of Him

    THE HEARTBEAT OF GOD (Play cd with heartbeat on) What a sound, something alive, something real. WOW. To hear that sound we have to be pretty close. Like lying on one’s chest. Then how much closer does one have to be to God. You cannot just go around and ask ‘can I listen to your ...read more

    The Seed And The Sower - Part 1

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Feb 23, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,771 views

    The parable of the Seed and the Sower is full of spiritual insight for us as we see the world as a place where the Lord wishes to plant seeds and to harvest souls. In this first part we look mostly at the Scripture between the parable and the explanation

    Matthew 13:1-23 NIV Parable - “A short allegorical story designed to illustrate or teach some truth, religious principle, or moral lesson.” What might be an example of a simple, non-Biblical story that could be considered a parable? The Tortoise and the Hare (briefly describe) The ...read more

     | 3,808 views

    The contrast between Judas and the other disciples was not obvious, until their hearts were revealed.

    Disenchanted and Sincere: Side by Side (Mark 14:10-21) 1. We have all met negative, cynical, bitter folks who claim to follow Christ but really don’t like Him and they don’t love His people. They may profess to be seekers or questioners, or are rethinking their faith. In reality, ...read more

    Thursday of the 28th Week in Course 2014 Joy of the Gospel The Holy Father’s letter on the Joy of the Gospel tells us: “God’s word is unpredictable in its power. The Gospel speaks of a seed which, once sown, grows by itself, even as the farmer sleeps (Mk 4:26-29). The Church has ...read more

    Resurrection, The Key To Eternal Life

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 12, 2015
     | 3,831 views

    We can rejoice that God can repair the status of our lives and restore us to wholeness. Anything in our lives that is hated, weak, and contemptible can become beautiful, radiant, and a blessing.

    Do you know that there are some people who refuse to believe that Jesus died and rose again? They claim that Jesus actually passed out on the cross and was revived by the cool air in the tomb. Unfortunately there is a major flaw with this belief. It does not explain how water and blood flowed out ...read more
