Bent Out Of Shape

Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 20, 2016

Jesus knew that rules are important, but he knew that the needs of people are more important. You and I need to learn that lesson as well. Whenever we see someone in need, the most important thing is to help them, no matter when or where it may be.

To help you understand the importance of the reading we just heard from Luke’s Gospel, I’m going to do something unusual. I’m going to bend over. As you can see, this is not a very comfortable position for me. I could easily stay bent over like this for a few minutes, but what if ...read more

Amos is called one of the “lesser” books of the Bible, not because it’s less important, but because it’s smaller. Amos, like Hosea, Joel, Obadiah, Micah, ...read more
