    Staying The Course Series

     | 6,092 views

    We might presently feel like we’ve been fighting for our Promised Land a long time. Fighting will wear us out and lead to discouragement. Battle is not a pretty sight, and as we tire of spiritual confrontation, we might be tempted to give up.

    Last week we saw how becoming tired of incessant battle can lead to becoming impatient and attempting to rush what God is wanting to do in His way and His timing. It can also lead a person to feeling defeated and abandoning the fight. David boldly declared in Psalm 119, “I will run the course of ...read more

     | 3,235 views

    When we find ourselves in the depths of despair, we have the gift of Jesus … the very embodiment of God’s “hesed” … God’s steadfast love … and we have the cross to remind us of the greatest Christmas gift of all, amen?

    Advent is a time of tension. There is the joy and anticipation of the season and the stress and strain of trying to prepare for it, amen? But the season itself represents an historical and theological tension as well and I am going to use songs from the Jewish song book and songs from our own ...read more

     | 4,854 views

    We could all use a little boost every now and then. No, not the nutrition shake, although that might help too. But there are times when we could all use a helping hand or a pep talk. Let's look into the subject of encouragement.

    DO YOU NEED A BOOST? We could all use a little more encouragement in our lives, right? We get run-down, we get disheartened. We wonder if what we’re doing really matters. We could all use a little boost every now and then. No, not the nutrition shake, although that might help too. But there are ...read more

    So often our minds our clouded with doubt instead of faith when situations are grim, and circumstances unyielding. The Lord does not condemn us, but comes to strengthen our faith, and let’s learn how.

    Today’s meditation Mark 11:23-24, Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be taken up and thrown into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.

    Here I am! You know that’s something all of us need to learn, isn’t it? When the Lord calls, we immediately say, “Here I am.” That’s the language of obedience, “Here I am.”

    When your prayers go unanswered, you are expected to feel discouraged and want to give up. However, it is essential to remember that God hears every one of your cries. Therefore, trust that your prayers are being heard and answered in God's own time and in a way that benefits you.

     | 203 views

    Friends, welcome. Some stories slip past our defenses and sit down in the living room of our hearts. Jesus tells one of those stories today. It hums with hope and honesty. It whispers to our comfort and calls to our conscience. It lifts our chin so we can see the person at the gate and the God who ...read more

    Trusting God with opposition frees us from control and revenge, inviting us to pray honestly and rest in His faithful care amid conflict and criticism.

    Some weeks feel like a parade of prickly people and pricklier problems. A stray comment stings. A coworker corners you with criticism.
