    Mary gave up a lot to show her love for Jesus. It can be costly to be a disciple. To come before God the Father without fear, with our sins removed wiped clean to live forever in his presence far outweighs anything we might give up out of our love for him

    We were discussing in our staff meeting this week the question of how you decide what to leave in your will, and to whom, when you die. As I was thinking about that I wondered how many of us have ever sat down and thought about what our priorities are in life; and when we come to write a will, to ...read more

    How do we respond to God’s Timing, when it does not match our own? How do we respond to God’s Love, both the Love He gives us, and the Love he desires to show through us to others? How do we obey God’s Command, even when it means our own suffering?

    What are the strongest days of the week? An Episcopal priest was preaching in an unfamiliar church one Sunday morning. As he stood in the pulpit to begin the service, he tapped the microphone to make sure that it was on. He heard nothing even though it was working fine. He wanted to give the ...read more

    Palm Sunday sets the stage for Holy Week. More than that, it sets up in microcosm the grandest event of the end of the ages.

    Palm Sunday is an essential part of the Easter experience, of the Resurrection experience. Without this day, we wouldn't have a foretaste of the Second Coming. Palm Sunday is a place to pause before entering into the inescapable whirlwind of Holy Week. And there is genuine cause to celebrate, ...read more

    Palm Sunday welcome of the king and an alternative lifestyle is chosen, which is very different from the world’s norm of authority and power.

    John 12:12-17 “Welcoming the Alternative” INTRODUCTION Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem has always been called a “triumphal entry.” In many ways it appears to be a comical imitation of a Roman parade. We can see this first Palm Sunday event similar to an army ...read more
