Pray anyway! That was one friend’s take-a-way from the sermon yesterday. Honestly, that really does sum up our time together well. No matter what you are facing, no matter the doubts you feel, or the uncertainties you are balancing—pray anyway. God hears us and responds! How many times have you...
All of you is more than enough for all of me For every thirst and every need You satisfy me with Your love And all I have in You is more than enough ~Enough by Chris Tomlin We hear these words on the radio, we sing them in our...
Happy flipping-over tables day! It was probably on Monday, right after the celebratory entry on Palm Sunday, that Jesus entered the Temple complex and started flipping over tables and chasing out the money changers. This dramatic scene started the turn from “He’s our king” to “we have no king but...
Over the past week, we’ve lost a lot of things. We lost a hour of sleep Saturday night. We apparently lost a pile of snow that was suppose to come our way. And as of yesterday morning, I hope you’ve lost your enemies. As we explored the Sermon on the...

So are you a goat or an elf? After yesterday’s message, I hope, if you’re a goat, you have a little more interest in theology. If you’re an elf, then I’m sure you’re even more excited than usual! If you missed yesterday’s sermon, you are vastly confused and need to...
It’s been a few weeks since I’ve written my “weekly update.” Between celebrating Independence Day (by shooting two fireworks shows!) and attending a Brethren in Christ Pastor’s continuing education course, I haven’t been around my computer much! But here I am, back at it and excited to share some events...
“ Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action,...
God’s timing is not always our timing. How many times do we find ourselves asking God “when?” and then sit around waiting for an answer. If you’re like me, you like to know the details. Who, what, where, when, and why are some of the most important questions that can...
