    Christmas Significa Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jul 11, 2021
     | 2,794 views

    The real beauty and power of Christmas is how it is as mundane as it is holy, secular as it is sacred, temporal as it is eternal, physical as it is spiritual, worldly as it is heavenly … and this is by design.

    Today’s scripture reading reminds me of Christmas hymns like “Angles We Have Heard on High” in which the angels “sweetly sing o’er the plans” (UMH, verse 1; p.238) or “Hark! the Herald Angels Sing” … “glory to the newborn King” (UMH, verse 1; p. 240). Songs like these beautifully capture the drama ...read more

I think the one that was most offensive was the one that used a popular jingle to say “Happiness is the taste of” a particular cancer ...read more

    Be Ye Separate

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on May 4, 2024
     | 1,203 views

    Christians are to be readily recognizable. They are to be seperate from worldly persons. However, it is most difficult to identify one in a crowd in the modern world. Why?

    In western culture and its influence upon all the rest of mankind, depicting Christians from the rest of the world is most difficult today. The only differences we see come from diverse groups who outwardly show differences in their dress and chosen culture. Outward differences among all others are ...read more
