    How Are We To Be Servant Leaders?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on May 21, 2023
     | 1,043 views

    Jesus teaches about serving others. We are not to think too highly of ourselves in the service of the Lord.

    In this passage of Scripture, Mark is telling us what Jesus teaches about serving others. This concurs with the story in Matthew 20:20-28. Mark records that John and James went to Jesus with their appeal; in Matthew, their mother likewise made the petition. There is no logical inconsistency in the ...read more

    Serving God Is Not Optional

    In one sense, God gives us the freedom and option to serve Him or not. We know the outcomes of that choice, so it is not really an option to reject Him.

    Serving God Is Not Optional Patriots have their eyes open to the destruction of our republic. Even the people who are asleep or are not patriotic know something is wrong. Our forefathers knew that having God as the basis of our society was essential, not optional. They knew that when people know ...read more

    For a priest or Levite, Malachi’s accusation that they had “corrupted the covenant of Levi” was just about the worst word he could throw at them.

    Thirty-first Sunday in Course 2023 Today the Church gives us a snippet from St. Paul’s first letter to Thessalonika, and it echoes the sentiment of our psalm.

    Love And Hate Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Nov 6, 2023
     | 2,489 views

    In Mark 14, Mark places the themes of love and hate alongside each other to create a sharp contrast. The hatred of the Jewish leaders, is followed by Mary’s loving act, which is followed by Judas’ betrayal. These stories challenge us to examine our feelings and actions toward Jesus.

    Jesus isn’t saying that ambition is a bad thing, or that they/we shouldn’t aspire to be great. He’s telling them/us that true greatness is something else.

    Ann Henderson came home from her doctor’s appointment looking much the same as usual. Maybe she was a little quieter, but not enough to cause comment. The whole family was home for dinner that night, for once. She was grateful. She would only have to say it once. She waited for a moment when nobody ...read more
