Give Thanks Always?

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Dec 30, 2019

When will you give thanks? Our thankfulness is so often dependent upon the circumstances of our lives. Find a continual source of gratefulness in God and what he has and continues to do for you in Christ Jesus.

What do you see? Is the glass half empty or is the glass half full? The answer is, “Yes” since both are true. But we sometimes use that expression to describe a person’s outlook on life. Are you a glass-half-full kind of person – the optimist, OR are you a glass-half-empty kind of person, the ...read more

How To Give Thanks

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Nov 25, 2019

On Thanksgiving, just to who are we giving thanks to? Do we just give lip service to giving thanks?

All this week, we will hear a lot about giving thanks. We need to give thanks for all we have. But you will hear little about giving thanks to who. To whom do we give thanks? Our parents? Our forefathers? Our government? Our lucky stars? The fact is everything we have and all that we are, we ...read more

Give Me A Drink

Contributed by Samuel M on Aug 7, 2024

Jesus comes with his need to a broken person( in his brokenness), not to burden him, but to bless him and make him a blessing for others. Meeting Jesus’s need in your lack and brokenness creates an avenue for Jesus to bless you and become a blessing to many others.

Jesus asks the samaritan woman for a cup of water. This is the greatest paradox in the Bible. Jesus never asked anything from anyone. He always gives but rarely asks for something from others. Jesus comes to the most broken person and expects something from her. The broken person has nothing(in ...read more

Give To Social Concerns Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Jun 24, 2023

Jesus has declared that he is a good shepherd. A shepherd who gave his life for the salvation of the sheep. He is such a shepherd that he lays his life for the benefit of the sheep. He was not a shepherd who lost his life to the power of the lion who devours the sheep.
