    Religious Play-Acting

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 10, 2025
     | 148 views

    Jesus frees us from religion’s stage—calling us from performance to presence, from spotlight to sunlight, to live unmasked before the Father.

    Religious Play-Acting The Sermon on the Mount opens with blessing and ends with a choice: sand or rock, appearance or obedience. Between those two poles, Matthew 6 sits like a quiet heart—Jesus’ exposition of motive. Here the Lord shifts from what disciples do to why they do it. He moves from ...read more

    God's Gift To Us: A Christmas Message Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Dec 22, 2021
     | 13,423 views

    No one lobbied Him as you would a senator. No one petitioned Him, as might your boss or your teacher. And no one solicited Him to do this as you might barter with someone in the marketplace. None of that was necessary for God, for the Father willingly offered up His one and only Son as a gift.

    Merry Christmas from my family to yours! It’s at Christmastime that we give gifts, and we receive gifts. This is why retailers are so happy with Christmas in a way they’re not happy with the Fourth of July, for example or Easter. At the other holidays, we don’t give gifts like we do at Christmas. ...read more

    We see in Zephaniah that God did not want His people, who are called by His Name, to be full of pride and ignore Him and not seek Him and lean into their wicked ways because then He would ignore them from Heaven and strike their land.
