    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Dec 28, 2021
     | 4,380 views

    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
     | 1,954 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

    "She was very old; she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, and then was a widow until she was eighty-four" (Luke 2:36–37). Anna had been married only seven years when she became a widow, and she remained a widow for the rest of her life.

    Anna, The Prophetess [part 2] Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 8, 2022
     | 2,686 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
