    Ponder the various responses of the people who came to know of the empty tomb and the resurrection of Jesus.

    Can this be real? That Jesus died and then came back to life? • What does it mean to us if He is dead? Does it really matter? The truth is, it matters. If Jesus claims to be God and comes from heaven, and He remains dead, then there is no hope for anyone. • Death ends everything. Death will be ...read more

    Read Genesis 1:1-5 I closed my eyes what do I see; darkness is everywhere. Suddenly, a light appeared in the midst. I wondered at him who caused this to happen. The bible says “let your eye be single less your whole body be full of darkness.” I knew that didn’t happen on its own, ...read more

    "First, I preached my church empty, and then preached it full again."

    David Foster Wallace said, "The truth will set you free. But not until it is finished with you,” in other words, the truth has to be assimilated in your conscience before it can set you free. Stanley Hauerwas, of Duke Divinity school, says, in effect, that, when we don’t let the truth ...read more

    Obedience is not empty duty, but the surrendered, grateful, Spirit-filled response of a heart alive in Christ.

    What Does It Mean That God Has Given Us An "inheritance"?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 29, 2025
     | 486 views

    It's an odd phrase: we have been given an "inheritance" in Christ? What does that mean? It's not like God is going to die! The phrase doesn't actually point us toward death but toward the Exodus. What can we learn from that reference?

    WHAT IN THE WORLD DOES THAT MEAN? What does Paul mean when he speaks of us having an “inheritance” in the Lord? - Ephesians 1:14; Colossians 1:12; Colossians 3:24. - This is a phrase that has bothered me for a long time and I didn’t really have a great answer to it. There are a few places in his ...read more

    Hollow Hope or Living Hope? Where do you find your hope? Are you hoping to fill up on something that will leave you empty? Or are you filling up on the empty tomb that brings powerful, living and lasting hope?

    This is the second in a six part Easter Series. The premise comes from Phil. 2:5-7 where it states that Jesus "emptied Himself, taking on the form of a bond-servant." We too need to be emptied so we can be filled with the fullness of Christ alone.

    Mary’s blessing came as a result of her willingness to be used of God. I’m convinced that it is not our "fullness" that attracts God, but our "emptiness". If you are willing to be used of God, and learn to be emptied of "self", then God will use you to d
