It Is Your Responsibility

We can’t gussy up our attitudes or actions to make them seem righteous on the outside and think that we are pleasing God. It’s much better to be transparent and let God deal with you, than try to hide sin under a pretty blanket.

The latest answer when you are caught making a mistake, doing something wrong – even breaking the law is: There was an error in judgment. Not, I goofed, or I’m guilty – but an error in judgment was made. That goes right along with this one: "I assume responsibility for all of my actions, except the ...read more

A Good Friday sermon as part of the lenten series Words of Lent. (This sermon quotes several historical perspectives and descriptions of crucifixion)

According to the New Testament, there’s a difference between repentance and remorse.Part of the problem may be our mistake in thinking that sorrow and confession are enough to produce change. Another part is the misunderstanding of the process of change-

Repentance Many changes come naturally as we mature. Sometimes, though, negative habits form deep ruts, and it seems we can’t change, no matter how much we want to. Friends urge us to alter our course and warn us of dangers ahead if we don’t. We read in Scripture about God’s path of ...read more
