Too Spiritual By Half?

In an exposition of Mark chapter 3, it was observed that Christ's first miracle after the commissioning of the Apostles was the casting out of a demon followed by the healing of Peter's mother-in-law. The Lutheran seminarian insisted that this symbolically represented the precedence of the spirit ...read more

Can‘t You Read The Sign!? Mark 3: 1-6

Contributed by James Lee on Nov 21, 2013

A number of times, the religionists had attacked Jesus, accusing Him of teaching a false religion. I guess they often wondered… “Hey Jesus! Can’t You read the sign!? We have rule against that kind of stuff!” In Mark chapter three we see yet another confrontation.

While thinking about this message I was reminded of a song from my hippy days… And the sign said "Long-haired freaky people need not apply" So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why He said "You look like a fine upstanding young man, I think you'll do" So I took off my ...read more

#14 The Gathering Storm Series

Contributed by Chuck Sligh on Mar 29, 2020

Acceptable Anger Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 27, 2021

Is it possible that we eliminate the vice of anger, but in so doing also eliminate the virtue of it? It is obviously not Christ like to be losing your temper and blasting people, and seeking revenge. But on the other hand, it is also not Christ like to never be angry at the forces of evil.

I had an awful temper as a child. When I was in first or second grade I broke a pool cue over the head of one of my brother's friends, and for years after I was reminded that I caused the scar on his forehead. My older brother came close to getting even worse. In one of our fights he picked ...read more
