    When Jesus gave the Great Commission, He did not say, “If you feel like it, and if it fits your schedule, go and make disciples.” No — He gave His followers an unshakable, urgent, eternal command.

A suggestion says: “If you get the chance, maybe do this.” A command says: “Do this now. It is your responsibility.” If the fire alarm rings in this ...read more

    I need not be afraid though all hell should break loose. Why? Because “God’s Spirit doesn’t make cowards out of us. The Spirit gives us power, love, and self-control” (2 Timothy 1:7, CEV).

    In today’s gospel reading Jesus says to a frightened group of friends: “Take heart, it is I; do not be afraid." It’s from the story of Jesus walking on water. Some people have interpreted the story as giving us a lesson about needing to take risks in life. One preacher made that the topic of his ...read more

    Great is an overused word today, but right to describe our Great God. Awesome is even better

    Watching the Browns’ exhibition game last week, I was very critical of the announcer’s overuse, even misuse of the adjective ‘great’. Ask Cathy. Their effusive descriptions focused on one rookie, who wasn’t even chosen until late in the draft because of concerns about his ability to play ...read more
