    How does a Christian deal with grief and loss?

    Every Christian deals with loss and grief at some time during their life.

When this happens, we naturally ask, "Why?" and along with the original loss, we ...read more

    GOOD GRIEF An oxymoron---Good used instead of saying God (something sought after) Grief (something we try to avoid) To be in heaviness; distressed; to be vexed Something bothers you, then it becomes a burden, it may continue a hang on and become a grief. Eph. 4:30 30 ...read more

    For the disciples, the death of Jesus appeared to be the death of all their hopes and dreams, but those who lived through both Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday never doubted God again. Easter transformed them and the world.

    Jesus Was Acquainted With Grief Series

    Jesus Christ was acquainted with grief. Every day in Roman-occupied Judea there would have been executions, and crucifixions just as Jesus suffered. Grief would have been all around.

    In the last post, I concentrated on Jesus being a man of sorrows, so this post will concentrate on Jesus being acquainted with grief. First of all, as always, I check to see what the Old Testament Hebrew words are to make sure that I am interpreting the prophet's words correctly. In this verse, ...read more

    When a Christian thinks about being lost, it’s a whole different concept from what the world sees as lost. So, let’s see how we can use the word lost in such a way that even a non-Christian will understand.

    Last week we began a series on our Holy vocabulary—the words that we use as Christians that we or others might not fully understand. We talked about the word HOLY and God explained to us what makes Him holy. Today we’re going to talk about being lost. When a Christian thinks about being lost, ...read more
