The Branch Of Motherhood (Mother's Day 2022 Version)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on May 4, 2022

How can we relate Mother’s Day to today’s text, John 15:1 – 8? We can relate Motherhood to today’s text by thinking of Motherhood as a branch on the Vine that Jesus is talking about. John 15:1 - 8 echoes Ezekiel 19:10.

THE BRANCH OF MOTHERHOOD Texts: Ezekiel 19:10 & John 15:1- 8 Ezekiel 19:10  Your mother was like a vine in a vineyard transplanted by the water, fruitful and full of branches from abundant water (NRSV). John 15:1-8  "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinegrower. ...read more

Grace From Galatians (9 Of 19)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 7, 2022

One of the problems in the political arena is that we have politicians that are more loyal to their party than they are to their constituents.

They are more interested in trying to make us all Republicans or all Democrats than they are in trying to help the people that put them into office. President Bill Clinton seemed to be the exception to this rule, he seemed to have other interests. Illus: The story is told that Hillary Clinton ...read more

Matthew The Tax Collector Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 18, 2021

Matthew was a rebel who had fulfilled his dream in the world, and who realized it was not satisfying. He calls himself the publican, however, in his Gospel, because he rejoices that he is a trophy of grace.

Someone said, you never could take your money with you, but some can remember when the government would let you keep some while you were still here.

Patriotic In Prayer Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 19, 2021

Paul is saying that no Christian can stay out of politics. If you are obligated to pray for politicians then you are involved on the highest level. The only way to stay out of politics is to stay out of the will of God on this issue of prayer for your leaders.

Paul was a man of authority who respected the authority of others. In Acts 23 it is recorded that he was struck on the mouth, and he began to rebuke the one who did it. Those who were near by asked, "Would you revile God's high priest?" Paul answered, "I did not know brethren ...read more

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

Forgiveness is one of the most precious of all blessings. Yet, as blessed as it is to be lifted, it is more blessed never to have fallen.

Doing your best could be the worst thing you could do. That sounds like a contradiction, but it can be explained so that it makes sense as a paradox.

Praiseworthy Pride Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

A legitimate pride is a completely personal matter, and does not depend upon anyone else. It is a matter of personal satisfaction in accomplishing something that is praiseworthy.

One of the most common paradoxes of history is the paradox of succeeding through failure. Jesus failed to turn Israel from her sins, and they crucified Him, but He thereby succeeded in paying the penalty for their sin, and also for the sins of the world. By descending into the valley of failure, ...read more
