Hark the Herald Shepherds Shared

Luke 2:8-14 – Angels gave the shepherds a wonderful message. God didn’t use angels to spread the gospel. For that, God used people. When the shepherds left the stable, “they made widely known” what they had heard and seen. The message of the angels had become the message of the shepherds. The core of the... Read More

Looking Back and Looking Forward

Most of us probably spend some time looking back, whether with negative feelings or positive feelings. When the children of Israel felt trapped at the Red Sea or when they were hungry or thirsty, they looked back with longing to return to slavery. But when Paul looks back in I Cor. 10:1-13 at these same... Read More

"We don't want to be irreverent here, but this brings up a subject I'd like to talk about this morning!"... Read More

This question was asked often during the presidential campaign. Even when things aren’t going well, Christians know God is in control and orchestrating world events. Christians are also concerned about their own hearts and their trajectory as pilgrims. Without — events out there — we believe in a bright and perfect future with Christ, but... Read More

Why I Am an Anabaptist – Theology

A good question to ask ourselves is: Why do we attend our church? Hopefully, it’s not just because it’s where we grew up, but because we see something worthwhile here. The emphasis of the Great Commission is discipleship, not just conversion. Our focus shouldn’t be on what is the bare minimum to get to heaven... Read More
