Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jul 19, 2025

Labor And The Lord's Day Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 4, 2021

The labor of the man became hard labor over an earth that yielded little. The labor of the woman became hard labor not just in the act of birth, but in the ongoing action of childrearing and coping with her man’s gripes about his work, not to mention her own work.

23rd Sunday in Course We learn our place and earn our bread with hard labor. We become wise, Lord, and begin to understand our place and yours only when our hair is white, our minds slowed, our joints unable to leap to do your will. And we build fantastic towers and plan grand campaigns without ...read more

Death From Christians Perspective Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Nov 22, 2021

Some deaths people treat as a “tragic end”, but for some deaths, people say “well-earned rest”. Our judgments are not true because those are based on outward known deeds. Death reveals mysteries.

Scarlet Cord

Contributed by Samuel M on Jan 11, 2024

And she bound the scarlet cord in the window as soon as the spies left. The scarlet cord which she used to save the spies was a remainder for God to save Rahab. The sacrifices that we make in God's will, will be the scarlet cord’s that reminds God to save us when we are in trouble.

So the men said to her: “We will be blameless[d] of this oath of yours which you have made us swear, 18 unless, when we come into the land, you bind this line of scarlet cord in the window through which you let us down, and unless you bring your father, your mother, your brothers, and all your ...read more
