    In this Genesis series, we can see that one of the themes running through the book is “blessing.” One of the meanings of the Hebrew word for blessing is “deep fulfillment.” When God created Adam and Eve they were in a blessed state - they were deeply fulfilled. However, as soon as they were exiled ...read more

    Soaking In Christ's "jesusness"

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 13, 2023
     | 1,260 views

    We are over our lifetime changed into His image. That’s what God wants for us, and that’s what we come together weekly to pray for.

    Third Sunday in Advent 2023 (sermon 2) Many years ago I had a theology professor who told me that the secret to successfully teaching theology is found in this letter of St. Paul to the Thessalonians: “Test everything.” And that’s actually good advice.

    The Wilderness Experience can make us feel all alone, under pressure, lost, and even wondering if GOD has abandoned us. But that's not the case. HE leads us in the wilderness, if we would only quiet ourselves amid the distractions and tune in to hear HIS voice.
