    John 3:16 is the greatest summary of the gospel in the entire Bible.

    Introduction Every Easter, churches worldwide see a noticeable increase in attendance. That is true for our church as well. Why is that?

    The first necessary step in redemption (#4 in the ’Every Spiritual Blessing’ series)

    As we continue in this study in Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, we must be careful not to skip merrily along, flitting from one verse or phrase to the next and on to the next, touching the surface of each, like a bee gathering pollen, and never looking back at previous verses, or even stopping to ...read more

    Grace. Those most people thought were least likely to become God’s people are the ones who come to Christ; while the ones often thought to be most likely became his enemies.

    Two of the surprises that we come across as we read the New Testament are the people who become close to Jesus, and the people who are alienated from Jesus. It is surprising because it is exactly the opposite of what we would expect to find. We would expect Jesus to be close to the religious folk ...read more

    God expects us to be transformed into the image of Christ. To refuse to do this we remain deformed in the image of the world.

    In November of 1977 we adopted our son Kevin. As Kevin grew, he would occasionally want to sleep in our “king-sized” bed with us. We were used to having our dog in bed with us, and the addition of Kevin added little to the problem. Before too long, Kevin preferred to sleep in the big bed with Mom ...read more
