     | 15,546 views

    If we could measure love the chart would tell us so much, because in reality, love is the key to building the kingdom. Paul is telling the Philippian believers to abound in Christian love. (Philippians 1:9)

    We have a board that we post the different reports on in front of the Sanctuary, such as attendance last week and last week's offereing. Wouldn't it be cool if we had a way to post abounding love?We have increased by seventy percent in love over last week. If we could measure love the chart would ...read more

    Paul is imprisoned, yet he is thankful. He doesn’t glory in his circumstances, but he does celebrate the relationship that he has with the Christians in Philippi and their partnership in the gospel with him. We too can celebrate this partnership.

With that change of focus comes a change of topics. In the Book of Acts we were focused on the work of the Holy Spirit in and ...read more

    Farewell Address at dinner by the Parish for my wife Lee and I. It has some humor yet I believe it touches the heart of who we are called to be in Christ. At the end I passed out 125 Red Wax Lips and and 125 signs that state "I Kiss Frogs" with a picture of a frog with big red lips.

    It just wouldn't feel right ... if I didn't begin with ... a story. And at the end of the story ... there is a little surprise ... that just might require a group picture. Well ... This short discourse is called ... "Kissing Frogs" Ever feel like a Frog? Frogs feel slow, ... low, ... ...read more
