Connect to God, Grow as Disciples, Serve with Our Lives
“Look Upon and Live”
The early disciples wanted to see the Father; they failed to recognize that the incarnate Son is a true (and much safer!) reflection of the eternal God.
“Inevitable!”
Among all the other oxymorons we know, there is this one called "partial fulfillment". And yet, given what we know of the character of God, because Jesus' resurrection is called the "first fruits", it also means that the rest of the crop is assured. The resurrection...
“From Cursed to Cured”
Sin bring curses. Jesus brings the cure. Substitutionary Atonement is not a modern analysis of Christ's work on the cross. The idea was there from the beginning among the Apostles and is even embedded in the Suffering Servant passage of Isaiah 53.
“In the Absence of Truth, Power”
A number of very memorable Scripture passages contain a very clear juxtaposition between truth and power. And tragically, our culture today has become one that seems to prefer power to truth.

“Middle Management (the Tithing Sermon)”
To be a disciple of Christ is to be in training for management of our Lord's resources. And there's a lot to discover in the realm of Biblical giving.
“Leavin’ the Other Leaven”
The Bible uses both bread and leaven as related metaphors. But Jesus also gives us some curious references to good and bad leaven— the latter of which can arguably be found even in contemporary culture.
“In the Absence of Law and Spirit”
The worshiper may be familiar with Daniel's references to the "abomination of desolation", but not necessarily to Zechariah's analysis of what causes desolation in the nation. It's worth noting today...
