As we enter into the calendar period near our holiday named Christmas, often many read the story of the birth of Jesus the Christ. But, have you noticed the nature of the persons mentioned in the story ...read more

    Anna told others that "the redemption of Jerusalem" had come. And that's what Jesus had come to do - redeem the lost. But what does "redeem" mean, and why should it matter to us?

    Have you ever been a witness to something you knew was important? Have you seen something maybe you weren't supposed to see? Something bad? Uh oh, I better call the police. Or, have you witnessed something beautiful? A "God moment" you might say? Yes, God is in this.

    Funeral Service: Step-Up

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 5, 2022
     | 1,938 views

    “Had I given up in that season of the loss of my first wife, had I given up and thrown [away] [God’s] strength and just started to living into addictions and living into my feelings and going out and living how I wanted to, I would not be living in the promises that I’m living today.”

    The spiritual step-up is increasing one’s faith and prayer life and service to God when a tragedy or trial hits you, like the death of a loved one. Admittedly, when life gets too heavy, it's hard to step up, so Jesus invites us to lighten our load so we can take a step in faith. And, Anna, ...read more

    Anna, The Prophetess [part 2] Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 8, 2022
     | 2,636 views

    As a prophetess, Anna receives insight into things that typically remain hidden to ordinary people; she recognizes this child and tells of his significance to selected people in Jerusalem.

    Regarding Anna, Luke provides three terse verses that manage to vividly depict her as a woman deserving the honor bestowed on the elderly in the ancient Mediterranean world (v. 36-38). She could well serve as the Bible's example of a remarkable woman and mother. The appositive prophetess heads ...read more
