Get A Life

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 24, 2023

The life we get from Jesus, a gift from God through the Holy Spirit, requires cleansing and renewal daily, not just at the beginning.

This familiar chapter from John’s Gospel is the lectionary text for today, the 2nd Sunday in Lent. It’s a good text, a familiar text, so familiar that when I first wrote it I expected it to be relatively smooth sailing. But it wasn’t. It was a difficult sermon for me to write, partly because it’s ...read more

The Call To Rebuild

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 19, 2021

God is calling the church to rebuild after the Corona Virus pandemic lock-downs. But amidst the challenges, it takes uncommon trust and surrender to tackle what God is asking. This message can be re-worked for a building program.

Someone once said, “Build. Destroy. Rebuild. I’ve mastered the art of bouncing back. Now, to master the art of not having to” (Dau Voire). This is probably how a lot of us feel. We’re tired of striving and struggling, and we’re tired of having to rebuild. But rebuilding is necessary in order ...read more

The Lesson Of Fear

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022

In Psalm 34 we have an unusual situation. This Psalm took place when David was having to flee from King Saul for his life.

To spare his life, David did an unusual thing, he went unto the land of the Philistines. When he arrived however, the people skeptically received him. The King in Psalm 34 has caused some to believe the Bible contradicts itself. For example: • In 1 Samuel 21 the Bible refers to the King of Gath ...read more

Good New For The Shepherds Series

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Dec 15, 2024
