    In Jesus we find all we need to know about God.

    Nothing Of Significance

    Christmas Eve parable -- kind of silly and serious at the same time -- poking a little fun at my own Scandinavian heritage. From the beginning the trained observers have failed to recognize the significance of the Nativity.

The players change but the game is the same. It’s all very complicated -- hinging on geographical and political ...read more

    The tiny Epistles of John contain great wisdom for those who have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Today we will be looking at John’s teachings from Second John as he warns us about those who would try to water down Christianity or in other subtly ways lead Christians astray. 2John 1:7 ...read more
