    The beatitudes, what are they all about? Why are these people blessed, to be poor in spirit brings blessing but why?

    The Beatitudes. Matthew 5:1-12 Interestingly enough when we think about beatitudes we often get this sought of thinking going on that these things, poorness of spirit, mourning, etc should be our attitudes. However the word beatitude comes from the Latin word for ‘blessed’, ...read more

    WRESTLING WITH SHADOWS Life is something many people fail to understand because there are so many questions those men cannot answer.

    Not to share one's wealth with the poor is stealing from them.

    Thursday in the First Week in Course 2015 Joy of the Gospel The two NT readings we have heard today are linked by a single notion expressed in the words “moved with pity.” Jesus looked on this poor leper and, in the Greek, became splagchnistheis. This is something we have all ...read more

    Living Waters Fellowship is inviting you to a special Mother’s Day celebration on Sunday, May 12th at 10 a.m. We’ll be looking at “A Mother’s Journey” from the life of Mary, the mother of Jesus.

    Mother’s Day Message: “A Mother’s Journey” As we begin our time together on this Mother’s Day, I remember years ago when I was preparing for a Mother’s Day message and Michaela said, “And what’s the problem, you already know what to say.” Now, it’s not so much what she said, but it was the tone ...read more

    Signs Of Life

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Sep 9, 2023
     | 783 views

    Taking, hoarding and passivity are signs of death. But the signs of life are the opposite: receiving, giving, and acting.

    There was a popular song about 30 years ago which some of you might remember. It went, “They’re rioting in Africa, they’re starving in Spain, there’s hurricanes in Florida and Texas needs rain" ...and ending with “What nature doesn’t do to us will be done by our fellow man.” It only needs a ...read more

    How Christians Are To Serve Others

    Contributed by Craig Condon on May 29, 2015
     | 10,817 views

    We need to redirect our culture away from ourselves to the needs of others and the glory of God. Culture must not be used merely for self-interest.

    The readings we heard from Deuteronomy 15:1-11 and Acts 4:32-37 this evening talk about how the Christian community is supposed to act. The events in the reading from Acts take place immediately after the coming of the Holy Spirit. The people had an uncommon experience of the life and death of ...read more

    November 23, 2009 Bl Miguel Pro Caritas in Veritate The Old Testament had particular contempt for those who oppressed widows and orphans.

    The first beatitude. Not the economically poor but those who are poor in spiritual qualities.

    Certain portions of Scripture seem to be etched more deeply into people's minds than others. Psalm 23 is definitely one of these, so also is I Corinthians 13 and Hebrews 11. The Sermon on the Mount, as Matthew chapters 5-7 is commonly called, is another. Its popularity may stem from its position ...read more

    Thursday of 2nd week in Advent 2015 Joy of the Gospel The passage from Isaiah we just heard is from what is often called “Second” Isaiah, probably a disciple of the original Isaiah who wrote during and immediately following the Babylonian exile.

    Intro: ľ It was one of those "high definition" moments of life. ľ The kind of moment that gets stuck in your head as a picture of what life used to be like.

    There are some passages that seem to suggest that God might be stretching the truth with some of His promises, but the reality is the God of the Bible does not lie.

    Background: • Our difficult verse is found in Psalms 37:25 – “I have been young and now I am old, Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken or his descendants begging bread.” Is it true that no Christians (God’s children) have ever been hungry enough ...read more
