    David was so moved by his friendship with Jonathan that he just wanted to pay respect to someone in Jonathan’s family. David wanted that “feel” or “association” with his best friend Jonathan! David refused to let his memories and the covenant that he and

    As we live our lives we need to remember who it is that we are calling out to and in relationship with. Nothing else even comes close to matching the God that we know!

    Since it’s been a few weeks since we have looked at Acts together I want to quickly recap what has been happening to put everything in context. If you remember, Luke opens up the book of Acts by telling the story of Jesus’ return to heaven as the disciples stood and watched. An angel appears to ...read more

    Epiphany 4: What we say we believe and what we do can sometimes be at odds with each other. If we are to live out the mission that God has given the Church, love looks like his people sharing Jesus with others.

    What believer has not been touched by the beautiful ’love chapter’? These words to the Corinthians are almost poetic in nature, and yet so authentic that they touch the soul. In these words, God gives us a beautiful description of what ‘love’ looks like: "If I speak in the tongues of men and of ...read more
