    We Share In Christ's Pain On The Cross

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 28, 2025
     | 124 views

    when someone is murdered, it catches all of us up short, and when the violence is carried out on children, especially as they are praying on the second day of school, no words can ever suffice to bring us back to anything like normalcy.

    Twenty-second Sunday in Course 2025 Humility, yes. I suspect that many preachers in this country have been humbled by the recent events at a Catholic church and school in Minneapolis last week. Typically we work hard on a homily for some days and often feel proud of our work when we come to the ...read more

    The writer wants us to see Him; a little lower than the angels, in the suffering of death, and crowned with glory and honor.

    INTRO: (read 2:5-18) When he writes, “But we do see Him who has been made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus...” the author cannot mean that we see Jesus with the natural eye. Even at the time this letter was written, Jesus had more than 30 years previously, ascended ...read more

    Psalm 22 reveals honest lament, prophetic suffering, and Christ’s redeeming victory, transforming our deepest “why?” into confident praise through His finished work.

    INTRODUCTION — THE PSALM WE HEAR BUT RARELY ENTER Psalm 22 is one of the most famous passages in Scripture, but ironically, it is one of the least understood. We know its opening line because Jesus cried it from the cross. We quote it during communion, on Good Friday, in moments of grief, and in ...read more

    Rejoice In The Lord Always!

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jan 16, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,667 views

    The source of our true rejoicing is found only through a right relationship with God! Everything apart from him is crumbling and disappointing. Yet our God is eternal, glorious, lacks in no way, and never fails. So those who enjoy a living fellowship with Christ are given true gladness of heart.

    Are we known as a joyful people? Is that the reputation we have, that we’re often rejoicing? Perhaps not. On first impressions, our worship is pretty sombre. In speaking about our faith, most of us are reserved, and we keep our emotions well in check. Even when we have what we call “the celebration ...read more

     | 415 views

    You will notice that of the seven churches that John addressed, he gave the least amount of space to the church of Smyrna.

    All he had to say about the church of Smyrna he was able to cover in just four verses. However, we must not think less of this church, or feel they were insignificant just because there are less verses given to them. Why? Because there were only two of the seven churches ...read more
