Dazed By Discontent And Disappointment - When Hopes And Dreams Are Shattered On The Rocks Of Regret

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Nov 20, 2025

There are times during the Christian walk, even when the miraculous is happening all around, that things will go haywire as the reality of this life intervenes unannounced, and hopes and dreams are dashed on the rocks of regret, which manifest as fear and anger at God because they feel betrayed.

A Tribute To John

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 15, 2000

John the Baptist pays tribute to Jesus; and in recording his words, John the Apostle pays tribute to him.

This portion of John’s gospel, when seen in context with surrounding narrative, at first may appear out of place. John has documented Jesus’ discourse with the Pharisee, Nicodemus, and early in the next chapter he records His conversation with the Samaritan woman by Jacob’s well near Sychar. ...read more
