    An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth seemed rather fair but Jesus had a better, more difficult way to settle things.

    As some of you remembered back in May, four weeks before my very first cruise, I fell at the local Y injuring my shoulder. What followed was accident reports being filed, doctor visits, ex-rays, MRIs, and the diagnosis of shoulder surgery. Looking on the internet I was discovering the cost was to ...read more

    God is always love, and I am to reflect him all the time, regardless of how people behave towards me.

    Once upon a time, long long ago, in a galaxy far far away, that passage from Matthew changed my life. Well, it wasn’t another galaxy, exactly, but it was certainly another world.

     | 1,263 views

    Sergio’s enemy of the priest that turned him away became his inspiration to help others. Even the ones we see as representing Jesus can (at times) be an enemy. And today, our lesson is that The Cross Has Enemies.

By age ten he’d already joined a gang, committed petty crimes, and started using drugs—marijuana at first, then harder drugs. Finally, after years ...read more

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 8, 2023
     | 1,244 views

    “Now raise your hands if you have only one or two enemies.” And even fewer people raised their hands. “See,” says the priest, “most of us feel like we have enemies.”

    A priest is giving a homily like I am right now on “What loving your enemies and being ‘perfect’ mean.” “Now,” says the priest, “I’ll bet that many of us feel as if we have enemies in our lives. So, raise your hands if you have a few enemies.” And several people raise their hands.” “Now raise ...read more

    Walking In Love In These Times

    Contributed by Eric Hanson on Feb 15, 2023
     | 1,241 views

    We live in times when good is called evil, evil is called good, and those who love God and His Word are reviled. As believers, we are called to walk in Love toward those who hate us and who accuse us of evil. This message may be of real help for many.

    Walking in Love in These Times Pastor Eric J. Hanson: July 10, 2022 There is a right way for committed Christians to approach those who stand against the things that we stand for. Jesus addressed such matters in the Gospels. Paul and others walked these things out, in the midst of opposition. ...read more
