Actively Repent And Avoid Presumption

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 1, 2025

We can stand under Gis mystery, His greatness, His uniqueness, and admire or adore Him. That’s the extent of our “understanding,” to stand beneath his Being.

Monday of the Eighth Week in Course 2025 This is one of those liturgical weeks that gets started in one direction and then heads off in another mid-week.

Realistic Expectations Series

Contributed by Perry Greene on Feb 6, 2019

The RYR approached Jesus with some expectations. Jesus also had expectations of him. The application for us is that we have expectations from God (some realistic and some unrealistic) and He has expectations of us which he will not alter.

1. Obsession There was a preacher who was an avid golfer. Every chance he got, he could be found on the golf course swinging away. It was his obsession. One Sunday was a picture-perfect day for golf.

Nuestra relación con Dios no está basada en lo que nosotros hacemos, sino en lo que él hace en nosotros.

Creo que por haber crecido en un ambiente de médicos aprendí a no darle tanto énfasis a la enfermedades comunes y cotidianas. En la casa cuando tenías calentura, te daban el medicamento y te mandaban a acostarte. Allí pasabas el día y luego, ya te sentías mejor y ...read more

No Way

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Apr 2, 2023

When Jesus tells the man to go and sell everything so that he will have treasure in heaven … what do you picture? Gold? Jewels? Crowns? Isn’t our treasure Jesus? Our relationship with Jesus. An eternity in Heaven with Jesus, the most precious treasure in all the universe?

One time a man was sent to prison. Sitting in his cell in the dark, he heard someone yell: “42.” The whole cell block burst into laughter, including the new man’s cellmate.

The man ran up, knelt down, and asked Jesus, “…what must I do to inherit eternal life?" It’s like, “What is ...read more

What Are You Missing?

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 20, 2018

Today I want to look at an encounter between Jesus and a “Rich Young Ruler”. Kind of like Jesus meets Mark Zuckerberg. The rich seem to have everything yet this very, very rich young man knew he was missing something. What are you missing?

What one thing do you lack? Mark 10:17-34 The Rich Young Ruler We are now just four weeks away from Easter Sunday 2018. Easter happens to be on April 1st, April Fool’s Day. I kind of think that God the Father enjoys the irony in that one. Satan really was a fool to think he could kill Jesus ...read more

Ever heard of Centralia, Pennsylvania? Back in 1962, a coal mine fire started there and it's still burning today, right under the ground. Crazy, right? Money is kinda like that fire.
