    What Do You Do When The Lord Makes You Uncomfortable?

    Contributed by Jessie Manuel on Aug 14, 2025
     | 671 views

    Jesus is going to show us in Luke 12:49-56 that this divine discomfort is not a bug in the system of faith—it's a feature. It's not something to avoid—it's something to embrace.

    There's a question that every serious believer must eventually face: What do you do when the Lord makes you uncomfortable? I'm not talking about the discomfort of difficult circumstances or trials that come from living in a fallen world. I'm talking about that deep, internal stirring ...read more

    Contributed by Jessie Manuel on Aug 14, 2025
     | 133 views

    But Jesus, with divine wisdom, sees beyond the surface conflict to the heart issue that threatens both brothers: greed. In response, He tells one of His most sobering parables, a story that cuts through our material obsessions and calls us to examine where we place our trust and hope.

    The scene opens with a dispute over inheritance - a matter as relevant today as it was two thousand years ago. But Jesus, with divine wisdom, sees beyond the surface conflict to the heart issue that threatens both brothers: greed. In response, He tells one of His most sobering parables, a story ...read more

    Fire, judgment, separation, crisis, – can bring a new opportunity for growth in faith.

    Lodgepole pinecones are very compact, and they will only open to disperse their seeds under intense heat, as in a forest fire. We hear a similar idea today in our Gospel that fire means judgment, which results in separation, creating a crisis, but which also means opportunity. So, fire, ...read more

    Fuego, juicio, separación y crisis pueden traer una nueva oportunidad para crecer en la fe.

    Las piñas de pino o conos de los pinos torcido son muy compactas y solo se abren para dispersar sus semillas bajo un calor intenso, como en un incendio forestal.

    Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Aug 16, 2025
     | 201 views

    Jesus obviously had not read Dale Carnegie's book "How to make friends and influence people" He hated hypocrisy and called it as it was even if it meant offending the Jewish religious hierarchy

    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,492 views

    Jesus's Parable of Hidden Treasure teaches all-out commitment to the kingdom of God. Christianity is not a little add-on to our busy, selfish life. It is a call to something so valuable that we would give up everything else to have it.

    Last week we began a message entitled “Valuing the Valuable.” That teaching led us to the Parable of the Treasure in Matthew 13:44. That is our text for today. There Jesus said, “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes ...read more

    As is often the case with military veterans who have endured actual combat, conversations eventually circle around to war stories and then on to; “Were you scared?” Those who saw actual combat often reply, “Only the foolish are not afraid.” Fear can be friend or foe! Fear is our warning system.
