    Many of you might remember the Lethal Weapons movies of a few years back. In these movies there was a good safe cop who did things conservatively, by the book, who wasn’t in to taking unnecessary risks. Then there was the character played by Mel Gibson who was always taking risks. He would jump ...read more

    An important part of worship is to pause and reflect on the one we worship and what it means that He is with us.

    A pastor and his wife were driving to visit Grandma and Grandpa for Christmas. Their daughter asked the inevitable question, “Are we almost there?” The father said, “No, we are still 150 miles away.” She asked, “Well, how long is that?” “Well, honey, ...read more

    To whom shall the LORD be compared? Who is his equal? There really is none like him! When we really see that truth, and we accept it, then we’ll be comforted in all our trouble, our sin and brokenness.

    There’s a lot of power in a good question. Because sometimes a question is so pointed that it leaves no possible answer but absolute truth—there’s no wiggle room, there can be no hesitation, just plain truth. In the Bible there’s lots of questions like this. Think of the powerful questions in ...read more

    God calls us to honest, wholehearted integrity—living openly before Him and others—because true freedom and joy are found in sincerity, not in appearances.

    Some passages ease into our living rooms like an old friend, and some step onto the front porch and ring the bell with urgency. Acts 5 is one of those moments. It invites us to sit still, to listen closely, and to remember that God cares about what we hold in our hands and what we hide in our ...read more
