'Why shouldn't I?' he said. I said, 'Well, there's so much to live for!' He said, 'Like what?' I said, 'Well...are ...read more

1. There is a lot of talk today about making the bible "relevant." a. The word Relevant means "Logically connected with and important to the matter in hand; appropriate, germane, pertinent." b. There seems to be a precedent in verses like: 15 Some indeed preach Christ from envy and rivalry, but ...read more

The transfiguration reveals that Jesus is powerful (he is God!), primary (he must come first), personable (he cares about us), and passionate (he desires all to be saved). God wants us, like the disciples present, to "listen to him!"

Matthew 17:1-9 Opening Our Eyes to God’s Glory Do you ever get the sense that you take God for granted? Some of us grew up in homes where going to Sunday worship was expected of us. We grew up always knowing the love of God from an early age. And perhaps we’re spoiled a little. We don’t remember ...read more
