    God’s people are vulnerable, and sometimes they foolishly become sidetracked. The Psalmist seeks to plead his case by bringing up God’s special relationship to his people.

    Please Restore Us! (Psalm 80) 1. When our kids were at home, we had a plastic swimming pool in the back yard. 2. One day, we went to the park and caught crayfish. We made the pool into a crayfish haven. 3. A couple of days later, we heard a noise from our kitchen window. We looked and off ...read more

    When Micah wrote these verses, Israel’s southern kingdom, Judah, had become corrupt. The people there were faithfully bringing sacrifices to the Lord, under the false impression that this would satisfy His demands. However, God corrected His people . . .

    We need to live our lives so that they please God… not living lives that simply please the people around us or even our leaders or our pastors! Our focus must be to please God, not man or ourselves.

    Please Pass The Salt

    Jesus takes a simple image – no ambiguity - no hidden meanings - nothing out of the ordinary -- just common, everyday salt. Like the parables, Jesus uses a simple, concrete object to teach the people a profound lesson about the Kingdom of Heaven.

    TITLE: PLEASE, PASS THE SALT SCRIPTURE: ST. MATTHEW 5:13 Michelle and I enjoy entertaining by preparing meals for our friends and guests. The oven is usually going or the smoker is fired up in the backyard. On Saturday mornings I enjoy cooking breakfast for the family and oftentimes have a few ...read more

    The Ethiopian Eunuch didn’t understand the Bible until someone explained it to him. The whole Bible points to Jesus’ life death and resurrection.

    In a few minutes we’ll say the creed, as we do most weeks, and we’ll repeat these words almost without thinking: "For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again - in accordance with the Scriptures." I wonder whether we ever stop ...read more
