A place to discuss how we apply our faith in our everyday lives. Thursday, January 15, 2009. Some final thoughts on the chapter “Velcroed for Growth” from the book Contrarians Guide to Knowing God: Spirituality for the Rest of Us. By Larry Osborne…. Osborne wraps up this chapter writing,. Speaking from the perspective of a man, I find these types of relationships very difficult to find. Friends like those that Osborne describes are the ones you can pick up the phone and call anytime. They are the...I rem...

A place to discuss how we apply our faith in our everyday lives. Wednesday, July 29, 2009. Last Sunday, our pastor spoke of the origin of his last name.

A place to discuss how we apply our faith in our everyday lives. Wednesday, October 21, 2009. Do you understand the secret to the kingdom of heaven? This morning I am continuing my reading through the Gospels. I am reading them as I continue to ponder discipleship and what it means to our churches. This morning a couple of things seem relevant. We should not take for granted our salvation, treating it as nothing more than a get-out-of-jail-free card. Jesus called us to be his disciples; and as such, ...

A place to discuss how we apply our faith in our everyday lives. Thursday, January 25, 2007. Jesus’ life, from front cover to back cover, including the dust jacket, is a life shaped by the Jesus Creed. He learned the Shema from his father and mother; he amended it for his followers in the shape of the Jesus Creed. Most importantly, he lived it. We are called to participate in that very life, for is it that resurrected life that can form our lives. P 292, The Jesus Creed, by Scot McKnight. 2 An inclinatio...

A place to discuss how we apply our faith in our everyday lives. Monday, July 27, 2009. The “Rest” of the Story. As with many books of the Bible, Hebrews is one I have read many times, yet each time I read it I glean more knowledge and insight. This morning is no exception. In the NIV (and several other translations), the paragraph on God’s rest ends with verse 11, and a new paragraph begins with verse 12. In the ESV (and the NASB), the paragraph ends with verse 10, and a new paragraph begins w...8221; W...
