His Course Was Charted

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Apr 5, 2009

Palm Sunday: As we contemplate the joyous reception that Jesus got as He entered Jerusalem, our thoughts go to the reason that He entered in the first place - to save us by dying on the Cross.

Recognizing What Time It Is

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 23, 2009

There is nothing so fulfilling as good timing, nothing so embarassing as bad timing. Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem was wonderful for some, judgment time for others. What time is it for us? (MLK assassination anniversary)

There is nothing quite so fulfilling as good timing. And nothing quite so embarrassing as bad timing. They say that the secret in being a comedian is good timing.

Stewardship Of The Garden Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 17, 2010

Occupy Till I Come

Contributed by Mark Baker on May 30, 2008

When you look at the modern church, you see it is busy as a whole, but are they accomplishing what God has given to them? Is the church occupying, or is it just setting on its laurels of past glories and waiting for the Lord to return? ...

In other words engage in trade with what you have been given. Take what you have and put it to work. Stay busy with what I have ...read more

King For A Day

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on May 30, 2009
