    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 17, 2020
     | 2,118 views

    All of Torah, all of God’s law is summed up in two lines. That’s good, because after original sin, we humans routinely show ourselves to be pretty stupid.

    30th Sunday in Course 2020 Plague Year The Church has had us immersed in St. Matthew’s Gospel, chapter 22, for the better part of a month now, and last week’s Gospel with the famous quote, “Render to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God” was a rebuke of the Pharisees.

    I am so glad that March is over. It is going to remembered years from now like September 11th, or the day that Katrina roared onto the Gulf Coast on August 29th, 2005, or the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941. You ask why?

    Only The Good Die Young?

     | 11,755 views

    Why do the good die young and the wicked live to an old age? Do the good always die because of sin or could there be a blessing in an early death??

    If only the good die young then I will be here a very long time because there is no good in me except for what God has done for me and the Holy Spirit who lives in me. Other than that I’ve got nothing. We struggle with death and come to some peace with it when people die in their 80s, 90s ...read more

    The Christian faith, after all, is deeply personal. When we abide in Christ, we rest in God.

    OUR REST ONLY IN GOD. Psalm 84:1-4. At the end of the celebration of Passover, in Jewish homes scattered throughout the world, the parting toast is, ‘Next year in Jerusalem!’ The sentiment echoes a common consciousness, a restlessness if you will, which is forever drawing God’s people back ...read more

    But It’s Only Words

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 10, 2021
     | 1,962 views

    We often dismiss our words because actions are what really matter. This sermon looks at some of the warnings the Scripture gives us about the dangers of our words.

    BUT IT'S ONLY WORDS: Often we think of actions as being serious but words as being insignificant. TAKING OUR WORDS SERIOUSLY: 1. Your words reveal who you are. - Matthew 12:34-35. - We deny this: “I said it but that’s not who I am.” Like when we lie or burst out in anger. 2. Your words ...read more

    The truly repentant one knows where the problem is. It’s in his own mind, which he bows down to the Almighty, and in his heart, which he beats as he prays.

The first, which is way more popular than the other, is what is called “comparative” ...read more

    God made man and woman in His image, with the plan that they would act and become more and more good, more and more like Himself. That was the divine order.

    Thirteenth Sunday in Course 2024 In his great Summa Theologiae, St Thomas Aquinas wrote “the order of the Divine government is wholly directed to good. . .no one acts intending evil.” (ST I Q 104 Art 1) Those words are an appropriate commentary on the words from the post-exile writing Book of ...read more

    Good morning, family! We often hear that God made us in His image. But have you ever stopped to consider what that really means? Paul writes in Ephesians 4:24 and Colossians 3:10 that what it means to be made in the image of God is that we were originally made in knowledge, righteousness, and ...read more
