    First in a series on the early church from Acts 1-4. This message deals with how to wait on God.

    In these three stories about what to do until while waiting for him to come back, Jesus encourages the faithful and warns the faithless.

    If you’ve been following along this series in your Bible at home, you’ll know that we finished the series on the Sermon on the Mount last week. At that point, I returned to the Gospel passage from the revised common lectionary, which gives four readings for each Sunday and festival in the ...read more

The man said, “God, how long is a million years to you?” a. God answered, “In my frame of reference, a million years is about a minute.” 2. The man ...read more
