    We blame failure on "social ills" and that is a factor. But most of the time we are scapegoating, when we do not have to, for Jesus has turned our failure into potential. Clifton Park Baptist Church, Silver Spring, MD

    There is at my house a picture I treasure. In that picture I am about three years old, and my father is holding me in his arms. You look at my father and you see that he is wearing the cap of a service station attendant. Shell Oil, it says. Nothing especially remarkable about that, except that ...read more

    What God Is Looking For…

    Contributed by Thomas Bowen on May 7, 2009

    After seeing the disciples of Jesus hiding in the upper room it is hard to imagine that they had any vision of their own. That is why it is important to understand how God sees things and what he is watching for.

    Last week we looked at the slowness of Easter’s arrival for the disciples. They were locked away in a room. They were full of fear and doubts. Jesus appears, it would be easy to claim that that fixed everything for the disciples. But it did not; we know that if we read through the different ...read more

    There is a saying that goes: once saved always saved. But is there any truth to that?

    You cannot lose your salvation, but can you walk away from it? Beloved, when it come to the words: “DO NOT” many of us have a problem with those words. Do not touch do not go do not pass do not take do not give do not gossip. Many have no respect or fear and I mean are not afraid of ...read more

    This is a sermon the the Great Commandment with the thesis that one can not love God and yet hate people for whom Christ died. Love for humanity is proff of our love for God.

    When we look back at our lives and the disasters they contain, we do have to ask whether we brought some of these things on ourselves, whether scapegoating is occurring. But God is at work in all things, even disasters, for the Kingdom.

    I’m convinced that the best education in the world is the one you gain listening to other people tell their life stories. So much can be learned just from hearing what others have been through.

    Since everything we have belongs to God, we should joyfully give away as much as we can, knowing that our giving has eternal impact.

    God gives us good things not just for us to enjoy, but also to share with others. We're like a pipe that God's blessings flow through. When we share, it's like planting seeds that will grow into something bigger. Ever play a game of 'Where's Waldo?' Sometimes, Waldo is right there, but we miss him ...read more
