    There is a "call waiting" for you at the depths of your being from God.

    Thirty years ago this past summer, full-time ministry began for me as a hospital chaplain at Kenmore Mercy Hospital outside Buffalo, NY. One of the most striking memories of that summer was being called on a Code Red—cardiac arrest for a patient. I found myself being swept along the corridor as ...read more

    Too much safety is a "bad" thing... We need guts to grow and growth is what’s demanded by our Lord

    Too much comfort is dangerous. Literally. Apparently researchers at the UC Berkeley did an experiment some time ago that involved introducing an amoeba into a perfectly stress-free environment: ideal temperature, optimal concentration of moisture and constant food supply. The amoeba had an ...read more

    We are to wait neither so eagerly that we lose our patience, not so patiently that we lose our expectation, but eagerly and patiently together.

    Some of you know that Steve and Susan Forrester are expecting a baby. On the other hand, some of you might not even know who Steve and Susan Forrester are. Steve’s the pastor of the Methodist church up the street, and Susan is one of the counselors at their counseling center. Anyway they’re ...read more

    A look at the path toward patience as we wait upon the Lord.

    Last Sunday my family took a trip to Frankfurt to attend an international church there. Throughout the ride up all we heard from the children was: "are we there yet?" Or "how much longer?" or "are we ever going to get there?" Did you ever notice that those kinds of questions never come when the ...read more

    As we wait in hope, in the midst of a suffering world, God is at work, bringing us through to the last day when that hope will at last be seen, when hope will no longer be necessary because its fulfillment has come.

    There’s no doubt that being a Christian can be a dangerous thing in our world today. I read recently that there have been around 40 million people who have been put to death for being Christians in the past 2000 years and of those something like 60% have died in the last 100 years. Now that ...read more

    What we do when God has us in a waiting period is very important to our outcome. Nehemiah teaches those steps we need to take through his own actions.

    Nehemiah 2 The bible tells us that Nehemiah began praying in the month of Chislev (5th month of the Persian royal calendar.) Chapter 2 begins in the 9th month, which is called Nisan. Distressed by the report of Jerusalem’s broken and miserable condition, Nehemiah approached God on behalf of the ...read more

    A sermon for the period between Ascension Day and Pentecost

    In many ways the period between the Ascension Day and Pentecost is a period of waiting for the church. I liken it to being in the third trimester of the pregnancy out of which the church is birthed. The first trimester is the period between the birth of Jesus and his death. The period during ...read more

    Sometimes God asks us to wait and be patient. What do we do in the meantime?

    - How are you at waiting? - They say that patience is a virtue. I know a lot of people that are not very virtuous then. I am one of them. - I do not like to wait one iota - However, I am working on it. I’m starting a group called Impatient Anonymous. THE MEETING IS BEGINNING ...read more

    It’s obvious why kids look forward to Christmas. But today we’re going to look at two people who were looking forward in eager anticipation for a much different reason.

    INTRODUCTION: Remember when you were a kid and you couldn’t wait until Christmas arrived? When my brother and I were young, my Mom would have this Christmas calendar with cotton balls stuck to each of the squares. Each day we took turns taking a cotton ball off. We were excited to do so ...read more

    Waiting is one of the hardest things we are called to do. And sometimes our expectations get skewed in the meantime.

    Passage: Matthew 11:1-6 Intro: There are few things in the human experience as intense as waiting for something. 1. It seems like we spend our whole lives waiting to grow up, for our birthdays, our graduation, our marriage, our kids and our grandkids. 2. and of course, we wait in incredible ...read more
