Pandora's Box

Contributed by Dennis Fox on May 14, 2023

Hope is a gift from God. It effects our outlook and how we interact with others. Hope can keep us alive and help us reach our goals.

Pandora’s Box Saint Augustine said: "Let those who dread be allowed to hope," But what exactly is hope? I’ll start with Greek Mythology because I’m reminded of the story of Pandora. Mythology stated that Zeus first created only men. Prometheus first stole fire for man then tricked ...read more

Jesus Walks On The Water Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Jun 24, 2023

What’s the deeper message here for us today? It’s the gospel hidden in plain sight. I’ve noticed in the events of Jesus ministry we find the gospel again and again hidden in symbolic images.

Growing up in Wisconsin we would go “up north” twice a year at least, to a town called Minocqua. And we would spend hours boating, we would travel something they called up there the “chain of lakes.” We’d take my dads boat from lake Minocqua down through these thin passages, to lake Tomahawk, and ...read more

Stumbing Along

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 19, 2023

Unexamined assumptions can cause us to stumble over things we don't even notice.

It’s a little disconcerting, sitting down to write a sermon on a passage that you’ve already preached on twice, to find that neither time did you say what you’d planned to say. Of course, only preachers have that problem... Maybe only 60-something preachers have that problem. But more generally, ...read more

The Miracle With A Purpose

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 30, 2023

Jesus challenged the disciples to solve an impossible situation because He wanted to test them, to see if they would turn to Him and to God for help. We can trust God to do immeasurably beyond what we ask or imagine.
