God's Hope In Troubled Times

Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Dec 12, 2006

Through the birth of the Christ child and the visitation of the angels to the shepherds we see a God who cares and comes to us at our worst times to deliver us.

When we read the Christmas story of the birth of Christ I think we have a tendency to gloss over and glamorize what really happened. We sing our Christmas songs and envision this postcard picture of Jesus in a pristine creche as he lies in a manger on a bed of hay or straw. It’s beautiful, ...read more

The Politics Of Jesus

Contributed by Tj Long Jr on Oct 30, 2023

Christians think they align with Jesus' views. Some are surprised, others offended. Jesus’ campaign sounds like a liberal utopia because we’re not ready to let go of hate, we’re not ready to trust in God and not in the law. We have to transcend hate and show the mercy we’ve been shown by God.

There are only two shows that I’ve ever watched the entire series. One of which I still own on DVD and have watched the entire series 3 times. If there was any show that I’d love to see still running today it would be this one. I’d love to see how it would interpret and respond to the issues of our ...read more

"You brood of Vipers!" and still they come.

What do we do with this John the Baptist? Here is the third Sunday in a row with him. Such a strange man. "You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?" Heaping abuse on the people. And still they came in droves to be baptized. John had that charisma that attracted people ...read more

Dealing With Favoritism

Contributed by Jon Mackinney on Nov 29, 2007

We have become comfortable with it, even in church, but the roots of this sinful attitude and behavior are deep in our hearts. We need to dig it up!

Passage: James 2:1-13 Intro: When a behavior or attitude becomes the norm in a society, it becomes very easy as Christians to embrace it as our own. 1. and this is especially true when the socially acceptable attitude is one that we believe ourselves. 2. there are certain things that just ...read more

After All, I Didn't Kill Anybody

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 9, 2014

There is a good reason to avoid the near occasions of sin, but not even that is enough to make us the image of Christ.

“What’s bothering you so much? After all, I didn’t kill anybody!” That lame excuse is often given to people who have seen another doing wrong. The wrong action could be anything short of murder. Maybe it’s a so-called “white lie,” told by somebody to ...read more

God’s goodness and mercy actively pursue us every day, assuring us of His constant presence, care, and unfailing love in every circumstance.
