Forgiveness is a conditional gift offered that opens a relational space that expects a reciprocal response.

There used to be a sign in the Princeton University Book Store basement which said: "Love your enemies—it will drive them crazy." Clever but love of enemies and forgiving, commanded by Jesus in our Gospel this Sunday, is not hoping that the other person will change or trying to be ...read more

"measured With Our Own Bushel"

Contributed by David Nolte on Jul 17, 2021

The measure by which we pour into the lives of others will be used by God to pour into us.

There are official Government standards of measurement for weights, lengths, volumes, distances, altitudes, speeds, time, inside and outside diameters, pressures and anything else you can measure. Lacking these standards, we would be left with uncertainty about whether that 2X4 is a 2X4, is 8 feet ...read more

The Golden Goal Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 7, 2024

The "Golden Rule" is both simple and profound and sums up the lifestyle Christians should embrace. But what does this "Rule" mean to us, and how can we live it to its fullest?

(Asking the audience) What Is Golden Rule? “Do unto others as you’d have them do unto you.” That’s a simple and yet powerful statement that has caught the imagination of the world, and it’s almost as if nobody (before Jesus) had ever thought about that!

What Is Spirituality? (1 Of 7)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 1, 2022

One of the best ways you can determine that a person is a SPIRITUAL PERSON is by the way they spend their TIME and MONEY.

The way we spend our time tells a great deal about us. Because time is important to us, most of us ...read more
