    Contributed by Les Buttolph on Jan 2, 2024
     | 514 views

    Heading into the New Year, we each choose our path forward. Taking the path of Christ leads us to His Kingdom on earth where He makes all things new.

    Last week we were lighting Advent Candles, in the midst of the Christmas celebration, and now here we are, standing on the brink of the New Year. But even though Christmas Day is past… the holiday music on radio and in the stores has ended, and Christmas items are being drastically marked down in ...read more

    Celebrating Worldwide Communion

    As the first Sunday of October, today is not only our regular Communion Sunday, it’s Worldwide Communion Sunday for Christians around the world.

    One very cold day, a farmer sees a bird lying on the path, half dead. He picks up the bird, cradles it in his hands, and blows his warm breath on it. The bird begins to revive, but the farmer has chores to do, and doesn’t have the time to nurse the bird to recovery. But he spots a fresh cow pile, ...read more

    We are sanctified (set apart) on our Way Forward by the Lord, M'Kaddesh

    I’ve been using the parallel between Israel leaving Egypt, to our departure from the UMC, and their entrance into the Promised Land, as our joining the GMC. Not to identify the UMC with the Egyptian slavery, or the GMC with the Promised land, but as a means of comparing our Way Forward between the ...read more

    The American Bald Eagle can help us see the nature of our God

    This past Tuesday was Independence Day, the day we celebrated our declaration of our independence from England 247 years ago. As we discussed last week, it was our new beginning for the 13 colonies to be known as America. The American flag with its thirteen alternating red and white stripes, and a ...read more

  • The Torn Veil

    Jesus became the Living Veil replacing the now torn Temple Veil

    One of my early understandings in the Navy was that the Admiral’s door meant no entry. PERIOD. You didn’t cross the threshold without approval. His office was even in a special security area that required authorization just to be in that area. Even with such authorization, no matter how important ...read more

    Moses gets water from a rock; Jesus gets fine from stone jars

    You’ve all heard that phrase, “You can’t squeeze blood from a turnip”. Well this morning, as you heard from our Scripture readings, you can get water from a rock, and even get the finest wine from ordinary water in a stone jar. At least with God, nothing is impossible. Our OT lesson, told in 8 ...read more

    On this Veteran's Day celebration, we remember veterans of our military, but we are all veterans of Christ's Army

    Even though Veteran’s Day is Friday, November 11, it’s important enough to celebrate it on this Sunday before the holiday. Unlike Memorial Day when we honor those who died while serving, Veterans Day celebrates the service of all U.S. military veterans. Originally it was called Armistice Day, ...read more

  • Where Were You, God

    Contributed by Les Buttolph on Sep 13, 2022
     | 1,132 views

    (9/11 was a day that shocked America. Despite the tragedy, God did not cause the catastrophe, nor was He indfferent to our suffering. He was there, helping us, suffering with us.

    Today is a solemn day of remembrance of the day that’s become known as 9/11. A day when America, seemingly secure in the fact that no foreign enemy had attacked us on American soil since the War of 1812, when the White House was partially burned by the British. But as much of America was waking ...read more

  • Broken But Recyclable

     | 2,997 views

    Lent is a time we confess we are broken. But Jesus can take what's broken and recycle us to have meaning and purpose for His kingdom

    Lent officially began with the observation of Ash Wednesday, a day for Christians to confess their sins and receive ashes on their foreheads in the shape of a cross. Ashes were a reminder of death, so when people were in mourning or received tragic news, they would put ashes over themselves. ...read more
