    Scripture calls us to Be the Light of GOD to this world of darkness. As believers, we have part of the restraint of evil in this world. We have GOD’s WORD in us as a moral compass, and to live pointing to THE WAY to GOD, while warning others of the perils ahead. So, How Bright is Your Light?

    Rejoice

    Joy is so much different than happiness. All joy truly comes from God. Chris's birth returned the joy of we lost when we left the Garden. We have re-joyed or in better terms, rejoiced!

    A new joy – restore joy During road trips we made up word games to pass the miles as the travel droned. One our favorite games was the prefix game. We pick a prefix and each of us took a turn, and it had to be a real-word, until somebody couldn’t think of one, and they were out. Think of ...read more

    Let Your Light Shine Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Jan 12, 2023
     | 7,397 views

    Jesus taught the beatitudes as the hallmark of the followers of Christ. But how they can relate to the world? Jesus never intended for an isolated and exclusive community but he rather wanted to reach the whole world with his message of love.

    Text: Matthew 5:14-16 Theme: Let your Light Shine Introduction: I was amused to see the reflectors on the highways in the early days of night travel. The reflector was first invented in 1917 by Henry Chrétien to provide the army with a communication system the enemy could not intercept. in ...read more

    Following those distinctive teachings of Jesus, he calls us to be people of influence in the world around us.

    The word “influencer” has become popular especially as it relates to social media. You can do searches for the top Instagram influencers (or any other media). Mostly this relates to how many followers someone has. One article I read had the top five Instagram influencers (for the moment) - they may ...read more

    God Loves To Extend Mercy And Forgiveness

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jan 31, 2023
     | 2,721 views

    The message examines the story of the woman caught in adultery in a somewhat narrative form.

    In Matthew 9:13, Jesus says, “I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." Mercy is a word that many Christians fail to truly understand its depth and significance and how the withholding of it can impact a person’s life. In the ...read more

    Salt of the earth. That means we help our world attain its end, its goal at the end of the world.

    Fifth Sunday in Course 2023 As a chemist, I find occasional use for those skills when reading the Sacred Scriptures.

    Right Side Up In An Upside Down World Series

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Oct 1, 2015
     | 5,375 views

    Rather than giving a list of ideals to strive for, Jesus was showing the people how widely available God’s kingdom was – even for ordinary, poor, ignorant, imperfect, despised people. The beatitudes describe their struggle & grace to thrive in adversity.

    Right Side Up in an Upside Down World Intro: The more I study the Sermon on the Mount, esp. the Beatitudes, the less prescriptive and the more descriptive they become to me. Here is what I mean by that. Last week as I shared them, I introduced the first one (poor in spirit) as a requirement for ...read more
