What Does It Mean That God Has Given Us An "inheritance"?

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 29, 2025

It's an odd phrase: we have been given an "inheritance" in Christ? What does that mean? It's not like God is going to die! The phrase doesn't actually point us toward death but toward the Exodus. What can we learn from that reference?

WHAT IN THE WORLD DOES THAT MEAN? What does Paul mean when he speaks of us having an “inheritance” in the Lord? - Ephesians 1:14; Colossians 1:12; Colossians 3:24. - This is a phrase that has bothered me for a long time and I didn’t really have a great answer to it. There are a few places in his ...read more

The River Of Life

Contributed by Jody Vansickle on Aug 27, 2023

How are we treating the River of Life in our lives? Have we truly drunk from its' waters.

Here in eastern Kentucky, we know about floods. • We just ‘celebrated’ for lack of a better term, the floods that were so devastating to Breathitt, Letcher and Perry counties last year.

Death To Life

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024

God is a God of RESTORATION; He has imparted a spirit of FEARLESSNESS and DELIVERED us from imminent death. He has given us the assurance of Life and Life Abundant and Life Eternal.

Illustration: God revived me when I was working in the Middle East. Until then, I was just a lukewarm and laid-back Christian. I saw the great need for the Gospel of Christ to be proclaimed to the lost souls there. They had no idea that they were perishing and there was only one way out – Jesus. ...read more

When Money Isn’t Valuable Series

God's Plan For Us

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Feb 24, 2024

In Jeremiah 29, God, through Jeremiah promises blessing to the people in exile, a promise that often is misunderstood without the context.

During the Summer, I brought up a verse during a sermon that is usually listed on any top lists of “mis-applied” verses. Afterward, I got into a nice conversation with Gordon Douglas, Pastor Ron’s old comedian friend, who was visiting with us and had recently spoken on how often he sees this verse ...read more

He was not the only one….. Joshua 22:20 When Achan son of Zerah was unfaithful in regard to the devoted things,[a] did not wrath come on the whole community of Israel?

"The Jesus Who Brings Fire Not Peace”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Aug 13, 2025

How Could Anything Exist Unless God Had Created And Sustained It?

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 31, 2025

This takes us to the central Scripture of this Sunday, the beautiful and even humorous tale of Zaccheus, the renegade Jew. I call him “renegade” because only such a person would collect taxes for the despised Roman occupiers of the Jewish homeland.

Thirty-first Sunday Integral 2025 (yr C) The book of Wisdom, which we have heard recently, is a late OT writing that is preserved in Greek rather than Hebrew. Its theology is very advanced. Here the writer addresses God poetically as creator, ruler and master of wisdom: “Before the LORD the whole ...read more
