    Peace At Christmas Series

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Dec 13, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 536 views

    The Heart of Christmas: Peace proclaims that true, lasting peace is not found in circumstances but is announced at the manger, accomplished at the cross, and displayed through God’s reconciled people who live as peacemakers in a broken world through faith in Jesus Christ.

    Christmas—with all its tinsel, decorations, presents, food, and gatherings with family and friends—is truly a remarkable time of year. For a moment, it almost feels as though we are being invited to step outside the weight of our daily realities and taste the love and joy we long ...read more

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 21, 2026
     | 241 views

    Believers live between real sight and coming glory, changed not by striving but by beholding Christ, as salvation moves us toward full vision. If you are forgiven, faithful, and fatigued, your faith has not failed — your heart is longing for glory.

I was trying to take a picture in low light — nothing dramatic, just an ordinary moment — and what appeared on the screen didn’t quite match what I was seeing with my eyes. The image was flat.

    The Mind That Holds Us Together

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 23, 2026
     | 183 views

    Unity is not preserved by control or agreement, but by shared orientation toward Christ, whose humility frees us from grasping and teaches us how to trust. Unity does not hold when we try harder to manage one another — it holds when we remain oriented toward Christ and trust God with the outcome.

    Introduction — When Unity Becomes Fragile There are moments in the life of a church when unity doesn’t collapse dramatically. It doesn’t split. It doesn’t fracture publicly. No one storms out. No vote is taken. No announcement is made. It simply… thins. The room still fills. The hymns are still ...read more
