    A look at various approaches to making ethical decisions.

    When I taught an ethics course, as an adjunct, at Mount Vernon Nazarene University, I started the class by talking about the fact that moral decisions are at times exceedingly complex. Black and white categories do not work very well in the real stuff of life. To demonstrate this I used an ...read more

    All our days were given by God and belong to God; but on the Sabbath day he gives us freedom as well.

    Leah didn’t know why she kept coming to the synagogue. She counted the days up in her head... every seven days for eighteen years, it had to be at least 400 times, she thought. At first people were sorry for her, and someone would take her arm to help her up the steps to section reserved for the ...read more

    Recognizing the every moment of my worship is directed towards God changes every moment of my worship. When we read from the Pslams it is quite obvious that the object of their ’obsession’ was not themselves!

    Seeking God's Heart - Lord's Prayer Week 2 Series

    Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Nov 29, 2006
    based on 7 ratings
     | 7,214 views

    Our prayer life must begin with our relationship with our heavenly Father. God wants us to spend time in his presence even before anything else so we can know his heart. Only afterward should we pray for our needs and the needs of others.

    Last week we looked at how prayer is one of the primary ways in which we stay connected to God, or the way Jesus said it, to abide in him, or to be in a relationship with God. All of these terms describe the same thing. Prayer was how Jesus stayed connected to God his Father when he walked the ...read more

    Our God is a covenant-God, not a contract-God, and the covenant that He had made with us is based on His character and is embodied in an unconditional commitment. It is on the basis of His covenant with us, through the blood of Jesus Christ, that we as a

    Introduction: Making Vows Our passage, Psalm 132, is the longest of the Psalms of Ascent. While most of these 15 psalms are less than 10 verses long, and with some having as few as 3 verses, Psalm 132 has 18 verses. And on the surface it reads like the most complicated of the bunch.

    The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Byron Perrine on Jul 9, 2019
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,275 views

    The importance of the role of the Holy Spirit is extolled as an additional and vital empirical tool. Empiricism limited to only perception through sight, sound, smell, taste and touch falls short of the epistemological opportunities afforded us by God.
