    Sixty years ago President John Fitzgerald Kennedy sent a group of military advisors to a little country in the Far East that most Americans had never heard of.

     | 453 views

    We all make mistakes, some bigger than others. But God has shown us what to do with them:

    I don’t know anyone anywhere who hasn’t done something they were sorry for afterwards. What’s the most recent one for you? Maybe it’s something you said - thoughtless or angry words. Maybe it’s something you did - or something you didn’t do. Perhaps it was something that you fight against and keep ...read more

    The Means Of Grace

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Dec 23, 2023
     | 504 views

    God’s power does not depend on tangible things or reside in visible things. It is God in Christ who calls, and when we come to him, it is God in Christ who heals.

    Can you imagine how desperate General Naaman must have been? Aram and Israel were enemies, for goodness’ sake. They were raiding across each other's borders, looting and taking slaves and generally making nuisances of themselves, keeping in practice for the next full-scale hostilities to break ...read more

    Margin Of Grace

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Dec 23, 2023
     | 544 views

    The reason God has given us a margin of grace is so that we might reconsider and draw near to him, not to remove the consequences of staying at arms length.

    Nearly a quarter-century after most of the world signed a convention outlawing the use of antipersonnel landmines, the number of people being killed or maimed by these insidious and lethal weapons remains high—and rising.

    A few years ago, my sister played the female lead in a community theater production of a play called “Pack of Lies.” It was about a couple whose neighbors across the street were suspected of espionage; the British Secret Service asked their permission to establish a surveillance on them from the ...read more

     | 440 views

    No form of government can make up for the peoples’ failure to obey and honor God.

    It’s amazing which lessons we learn from our parents and which ones we don’t, isn’t it? Considering that I quit making my bed every day the minute I moved out, my mother would be amazed to realize how many lessons I do remember. One of my favorites is from a time when I think I was about 7 years ...read more

     | 382 views

    Jezebel took shortcuts to gain power and wealth and wound up being famous, but not in the way she wanted.

    How many women in this congregation are wearing makeup? How many of you actually feel rather undressed if you go out without your lipstick? My mother, who turned 104 in September, used to be so dependent on makeup she even wore lipstick and eye liner on hiking trips. I don’t often wear makeup ...read more

    Why should we adorn the house of God? How should we? Should we?

    We’ve come a long way, haven’t we, since the Puritans trashed the glorious medieval churches of England and Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Henry VIII ordered the dissolution of the monasteries, melting down altarware and images, largely to enrich the civil treasury. Under Oliver Cromwell, though, ...read more

     | 502 views

    We don’t HAVE bows and arrows; we ARE bows and arrows in the hand of God.

The people of Jerusalem had just achieved a major victory: rebuilding the wall around the city which had been destroyed during their seventy years of captivity in Babylon.

    Each time Jesus is born again in any person it is a sign of the present reality of the kingdom of God.

    I was talking to a man last week about our birthday party for Jesus, which is the informal family worship time we have here on Christmas morning.

     | 668 views

    Look how patient God is with Jonah's sulking. He's that patient with you, too.

    Have you ever been mad at God? I have. I became a Christian in my 30’s, which is a little unusual. Quite a number of people recommit in their middle years, as they start looking around and wondering what it’s all about, but they were usually raised at least nominally Christian, while I was ...read more

    As most of you know, I’m a news junkie. Especially national and international news. Right now the 2024 presidential election is front and center on all the news feeds.
