Why do we read the Bible?
I just finished a book called Reading the Bible For All The Wrong Reasons. It was an interesting book on why we read the Bible and how many of us use the Bible for abuse rather than to build each other up. By abuse we use the Bible to support those things we already believe.Continue reading “Why do we read the Bible?”
Trust in the Lord
In what do you trust? Do you trust in wealth? Do you trust in the amount of money you make and how much you have saved for the future? Is this security? When the dollar keeps falling and banks can close or be robbed? Do you trust in the security of your job? Is thereContinue reading “Trust in the Lord”
What have you read
Today’s gospel lesson has the Sadducees trying to trap Jesus. You see they do not believe in the resurrection of the dead so asking if a man dies and leaves a childless wife then she marries the dead man’s brother and on and on until the all die, so whose wife is she in theContinue reading “What have you read”

Daniel 6 tells us about Daniel’s trip into the lions den. Daniel was not liked by those who wanted his place. People around him were envious of him and his position with the king, so they moved in to get rid of him. They were caught up in the things of the world. They wantedContinue reading “The Lions Den”

Pastor Amy Danchik this morning said people come to worship on Christmas and Easter because they know they are going to hear the good news of Jesus and howContinue reading “Doubting who?”
Jesus was a puppet…
Are you a puppet? Of course we do not want to think that we are a puppet, we have free will, and decide our own future, our own actions. We are not controlled by anyone or anything! I am my own person and that is that! No one tell me what to do or howContinue reading “Jesus was a puppet…”
together in unity…
Psalm 133 tells us “How very good and pleasant it is when kindred live together in unity!” How true that is! Aren’t things more pleasant when everyone is getting along? Ever been to a family gathering where everyone knew there was a huge pink elephant in the room no one was willing to mention? Everyone tip toedContinue reading “together in unity…”
To what are you devoted?
What is it that keeps you going? What is the center of your life? What is the thing that is the focus of your life? I love this passage of scripture from Acts 2:42-47. There are many congregations that claim to be an Acts 2:42 congregation. They devote themselves to the apostles teaching and fellowship, toContinue reading “To what are you devoted?”
