Our Point of Departure by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman May 26, 2022

Scripture focus: It wasn’t so long ago that you were mired in that old stagnant life of sin. You let the world, which doesn’t know the first thing about living, tell you how to live. You filled your lungs with polluted unbelief, and then exhaled disobedience. We all did it, all of us doing what we felt like doing, when

Giving Preference by Paulo Lopes

Paulo Lopes May 11, 2022

Romans 12:10 Words are a funny thing. Not just words on their own, but the ways we choose to use words and give meaning to them. For instance: a young lady meets a young man and they begin going out on dates. Then they become “exclusive.” Pretty soon the pressure begins to build as the young lady and the young

Absolute Truth by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman April 25, 2022

Scripture Focus: For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me. (Matthew 25:35-36, NLT) This month

Fight, Flight, Freeze: Holy Week Unraveled by Elizabeth Glass Turner

elizabeth.turner April 14, 2022

We work so hard to keep Holy Week well-orchestrated: bulletins pristine, lilies in place, songs rehearsed. It’s an important celebration in the life of a church – in the life of The Church; a highlight of the liturgical calendar. We should have our vestments ready, Easter baskets ready, shoes by the door, hearts rightly adorned and aligned. Ham or lamb

Recalculating by Rob Haynes

Rob Haynes April 6, 2022

I don’t always have the best sense of direction. That is one reason why I was particularly thankful when GPS systems became available for your car. I no longer had to pull over to look at a map, rather I could just obediently listen to the voice traveling with me, telling me where to turn. When I strayed from the

Remembering Christ’s Presence With Us by Ken Loyer

Ken Loyer December 15, 2014

“How is memory significant for us as God’s people? Why is it important for us to remember, and what specifically should we remember most?”

Disciplines For Spiritual Formation by Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam December 11, 2014

“We are what we think. We are transformed by the renewal of our minds. So study is a necessary discipline for spiritual growth.”

Reveal by Elizabeth Glass Turner

elizabeth.turner December 10, 2014

Revelation. Not of the contents of a carefully wrapped box in your childhood home, hidden from view until enterprising siblings helped you spy out the contents (or were you one of the professional tape-peelers who could lift a flap of wrapping paper without leaving a trace?). Not of a painful holiday discovery, realizing your daughter has an eating disorder or

Expectant Waiting by Kevin Watson

Kevin Watson December 8, 2014

“In Advent we are waiting for the return of Jesus the Christ, the coming King. In Advent, we anticipate the return of Christ. Advent is about the future, the end, the “Christ shall come again in final victory” part of our faith. And so in Advent, we practice waiting. We remind ourselves that Jesus is coming back and that we

If Only (Or, The Sermon I Couldn’t Deliver But My Wife Did) by Jeff Rudy

Jeff Rudy December 6, 2014

Simon and Garfunkel quipped that “the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls and whispered in the sound of silence.” At the beginning of the song, they sang, “hello darkness, my old friend, I’ve come to talk with you again.” Advent meets us in the darkness, in the silence. So do the prophets.

Communion As A Prayer Of Thanksgiving by Ken Loyer

Ken Loyer December 4, 2014

“There I was, the new pastor of a church that had a strong, proud heritage but more recently had experienced several decades of slow decline while nobly carrying on, a congregation like so many others these days. I was trying to envision through hope-filled eyes the potential for renewal and growth in that setting, but as I stepped into the

Advent Adjustments by Tammie Grimm

Tammie Grimm December 3, 2014

Advent. For some, it’s a countdown to Christmas. For others, it marks the beginning of the Christian calendar year. For most Christians, it is a season of preparation: not just to celebrate the birth of Jesus but to renew our hearts that we might see Christ in the here and now as well as in hope and expectation of his

Advent: Thy Kingdom Come by Cole Bodkin

Cole Bodkin December 1, 2014

10…9…8…7…6…5…4…3…2…1… HAPPY NEW YEAR! “A little premature, man…” When the holiday season rolls around, emphasis is placed on the Big Three: Advent, Christmas, and New Year’s Day. What would happen if we started celebrating the Big Two—Advent and Christmas—instead of the Big Three? Christians may forget that Advent marks the beginning of the Christian calender year. It entails celebrating two

The Secret Of Joyful People by Carolyn Moore

Carolyn Moore November 29, 2014

“I told you this so that my joy might be in you, so that your joy might be full.” – John 15:11 I love the image of a smiling Jesus. It always inspires me to wonder about the things Jesus might have smiled at. Children, certainly. I have a sense that no child in a marketplace ever escaped his smile.

Generosity by Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam November 27, 2014

“There are things that you and I can never do for Christ and the kingdom by ourselves. We have to be a part of a body, a community. This is especially true in the use of our money.”
