Abbot, an English schoolteacher, theologian, and priest, which was first published in 1884. Flatland is set in a two-dimensional universe, where everyone and ...read more

Good morning boys and girls! How many of you have ever eaten something that didn’t taste very good? What did you do to make the food taste better? Did you put any salt on the food? Improving the taste of food is one of many uses for salt. Salt is used to keep dyes from washing out so our ...read more

Though the parable of the widow and unjust judge is difficult to hear, Jesus' lessons on the urgency of faith continues as he wonders, "When the Son of Man returns, will he find faith on earth?
For the last two weeks, we have learned along with the disciples as Jesus has taught about faith. And what we have learned, in essence, is that we are not made “Christian” by the amount of faith we have, but by a faith that is focused on God and lived out in gratitude to God and others. ...read more

The phrase "salt of the earth" has become a commonly used expression in our society. The dictionary defines it as used in reference to "a very good and honest person or group," but that doesn't begin to do justice to what Jesus had in mind in this teaching.
“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled by men.” (Matthew 5:13) Salt today has become such a commonplace part of our lives, available in every home or restaurant, ...read more
Scripture: Matthew 5:13
Jesus addressed the need for all believers to serve as the salt of the earth and light to this dark world. We will discover as we move through these verses both are necessary and much needed in our day. Each of these elements has a distinct and profound effect on their surroundings.
The Salt of the Earth Matthew 5: 13 We have spent a considerable amount of time dealing with the portion of the Sermon on the Mount known as the Beatitudes. I think you would agree those verses were a challenging and insightful study. As our Lord concluded His thoughts concerning the beatitudes, ...read more
Jesus told His disciples to receive the Holy Spirit's power and be witnesses for Him everywhere. The Spirit empowers us to spread the gospel to the ends of the earth and see people get "hooked" on Christ.
Think about your friends, family, and school. These are the people close to you. Share Jesus' love with them. Then think about the next town over, or the people you meet when you're out and about. That's a bit further. And then, think about people in other countries. That's as far as you can reach. ...read more

Understand and live out our calling as Christians to be the 'salt of the earth', to hunger and thirst for righteousness, and to let our lives reflect God's grace and teachings.
Good morning, family. Today we're diving into the heart of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount from Matthew 5:13-22. Before we delve into the Word, let's consider a profound quote from Karl Barth. He once said, "Grace must find expression in life, otherwise it is not grace." Let that sink in. Our faith ...read more

This sermon will explore how the power of the Holy Spirit enables us to spread the gospel to the ends of the earth, encouraging us to help others become "hooked" on Christ.
Welcome to the last week of our Hooked sermon series. So far we’ve talked about the kingdom net and the invitation to follow Christ.

Years ago, a friend of mine told us about the Sitar, a very popular Indian musical instrument. Although it can have up to 21 strings, the sitar player only plays one set of strings. The “playable” set has five to seven played strings. The other set contains about 13 to 15 sympathetic strings of ...read more

The Bible says that God reveals Himself in His creation, and that is so true when we really look carefully at Bible Science. Here we take a look at the heavens and earth
Bible Science Before I was a Christian, I banked my life on science, and would scoff at anyone foolish enough to believe in that book written by man. I thought I had all the answers I needed in my technical books, and the Bible was not one of them. But like many people who scoff at the Bible, have ...read more

Peace is not the absence of war or strife but the presence of God. Peace comes through personally knowing the person, that person is the Lord Jesus Christ.
Today, the sermon topic is “Peace on Earth?” The biblical meaning of peace or “shalom” means far more than the absence of war or conflict. Shalom speaks of wholeness, completeness, of well-being, tranquility, prosperity, and security. Rabbinical texts speak of achieving peace on a social level, the ...read more
