    Peter and Judas are very much alike! Both are apostles. Both rise up the ladder of success -- Peter the spokesman of apostles and Judas the treasurer. And both deny and betray Christ. The difference is -- to whom to they turn in their darkest moments?

    The Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper is full of meaning. It is a spiritual food that nourishes our souls. It is a part of worship Christ commands of us. It is an experiencing of the presence of Christ in a real and tangible way. It is something we do as a community – we never ...read more

    Since Genesis, the Bible is filled with pages that suggest and remind us that God knows who we are, what we are, and where we are at all times. Let’s look at Nathanael to see these questions in action.

It was then that the basis of the Olympic Movement began to evolve into a philosophy of life: exalting and combining ...read more

    Jesus used the principle of understanding our weaknesses but trusting our possibilities in order to transform people-pleasers into persons of integrity, ambition into selfless commitment, and immaturity into responsibility.

    History is full of stories of betrayal. Those who look like friends sometimes turn on you. Friendship means nothing to people who are bent on preserving privileges or feeding ambitions. Some of us have friends who would sell us for even less than Judas’ thirty pieces of silver if they ...read more

Also at the end of this chapter, verse one of chapter 7 is part of what’s being said at the end of chapter 6. The truth is, the chapters and verses have butchered this letter! ...read more
