    The Holy Name Of Jesus Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 1, 2022
     | 1,503 views

    The name of God and his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, is so often abused in our culture, that we must in this new year treat that Name with respect and honor.

    On January 1, Moses tells the people how Aaron and his following high priests should bless them. The strange phrase, “so shall they place my name upon the people of Israel” is part of the direction. In Hebrew, the word “name” (hashem) stands for the person and the person’s power and authority. The ...read more

    Funeral Service: Step-Up

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 5, 2022
     | 1,882 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
     | 2,503 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
