Presentation Of The Lord In The Temple

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 2, 2025

Individuals choose their own fate by deciding for or against Jesus

The Presentation is also Groundhog Day. Originally it was known as Candlemas Day: if it was clear and sunny on Candlemas Day, it means "winter will have another fight." Firstborn is a title. It does not imply that there is a second child. Even if a mother only had one-child like Mary, ...read more

The Lord Who Leads Series

Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 20, 2003

Since this psalm is so familiar, we’re in danger of missing the depth of its meaning. And, because it’s setting is in the world of sheep and shepherds, many of us city slickers can slide right past its richness.

The Lord Who Leads Most everyone has heard of Psalm 23. It’s a poem with no peer and has been called the sweetest song ever sung. Abraham Lincoln read it to cure his blues, and President Bush proclaimed it publicly to calm our nation’s fears after 9-11. I read these words out loud a week ago ...read more

Waiting Upon The Lord

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 11, 2020

There is no shortage of God’s power, might, and strength. Our way is not hidden from Him. He has not forgotten about us. He will make His strength available to us, if we but trust Him. AND WAIT.

Waiting on the Lord entails patient faith and is rewarded by His strength. This past week we experimented here at the church with livestreaming on our church Facebook page.

The Epiphany Of The Lord- Be A Star

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Dec 19, 2024

“You will see his glory within you… shone anew upon the eyes of our mind!”

The idea of "be a star" during Epiphany is a way to reflect on the story of the Magi, or the three wise men, following a star to find baby Jesus. To be a star is not the same thing as being called a star. E.g., The leader of the patriots in the second Jewish War, A.D. 130-135, Bar Kosba, ...read more
