• Awaiting His Salvific power, with Jesus - Titus 2:11-15
    Dec 25 2024
    We're awaiting Jesus! Merry Christmas! It’s incredible… Salvation came… when Jesus came… A little baby was born a little more than 2,000 years ago under very unimpressive circumstances… He was born to poor working people… living in an oppressed country… He was born while the parents were on a journey that was required… involuntary… and they had to stay in a stable instead of in a home. The baby was laid to sleep in a trough from which cattle usually ate. And yet, Christians down through all these years have believed that there was something very special about that birth.

  • Awaiting His Salvific power with Joy – Isaiah 12:1-6
    Dec 13 2024
    In Isaiah 12:1-6 we find a message of joy. If we compare Isaiah 12, this song of Joy, with Psalm 30 where we find a psalm of trust and then if we compare those songs to John the Baptist's message, we realize that to have JOY, that profound abundant JOY that only comes from God, we come to realize that it all starts with repentance. For us to follow Jesus means more than saying the right words; it means acting on what he says. Many of John the Baptist's hearers were shocked when he said that being Abraham’s descendants was not enough to ensure salvation. In today’s world, in our world that means that we cannot rely on someone else’s faith for our salvation. What changes can you make during this time of waiting and what might you share?

  • Awaiting His Salvific Power with Peace! - Philippians 1:3-11
    Dec 7 2024
    Let me ask you: Is what you do remembered with joy by those who don’t know our Lord? Do your acts of kindness lift others up? Friends, perhaps we need to look closely at our communities, at our churches, our circle, maybe help our ministers, maybe help missionaries who are far away through prayer, with hospitality, and financial gifts. Maybe with those attitudes and actions you just might reflect God’s salvific power.

  • Awaiting His Salvific power with Hope! - Luke 21:25-36
    Nov 30 2024
    I think it’s clear that the first time Jesus came, was to bring the hope of salvation, but at his second coming, His coming will be for judgment so we should confidently await Christ’s return to bring justice and restoration to his people. This is our new hope.

  • When the Truth Speaks! – Revelation 1:4-8
    Nov 23 2024
    In the Bible, an apocalypse is a moment when God pulls back the curtain that hides heaven from earth. The Revelation offers glimpses of a holy reality which is normally hid from our eyes. We need to consider that each letter was directed to a church then in existence. but this letter also speaks to conditions in the church throughout history, both in the church today and in our individual lives now.

  • Interpreters of God’s will - 1 Samuel 2:1-10
    Nov 16 2024
    It seems that God not only allows adversity but even brings it upon us at times—not because we lack faith or are disobedient, but as a way to increase our faith. Tribulation helps us to mature into the people of faith God wants us to be. Many Christians live in discouragement because they don’t realize how God uses adversity to increase our faith.

  • A handful of flour - 1 Kings 17:8-16
    Nov 9 2024
    Have you ever been so thirsty that even the thought of a cup of water seemed like paradise? But if you think about it, throughout Scripture, we see that dryness is given as an example of that came about when God’s people were not doing what God had asked them to do. By the same token when you think about it, droughts just might lead us to Christ in the first place and cause us to be true worshipers of God.
