Contributed by Darren Rogers on Sep 4, 2007

Do we shed tears for those who are lost? How do we sow the seed of God’s Word? With tears in our eyes or do we just go through the motions?

God Left You A Message, Did You Get It?

Contributed by Edwin Amundson on Dec 12, 2003

In a world spooning from the advances of the information age, we send and receive so many different messages with so many different devices. So why is God still sending the same old message, the same old way to me? And why does He expect me to pass it on

A Living Wage Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 28, 2022

There’s a difference between dead-end religion and living faith.

Water and thirst. Those are two powerful pictures that we find in Jesus’ interaction with a Samaritan woman at a well. May God the Holy Spirit enable us to recognize the insatiable thirst that sin gives us. And every day, let’s quench our thirst with living water.

This reading from John 4 uses something from everyday life that is intended to give us a powerful connection to spiritual truth. It’s supposed to touch our head and our heart and impact our emotions.
