Supreme Court Decision & Bible Bashing – A Teaching Moment? | Silverdale Lutheran

https://silverdalelutheran.wordpress.com/2015/07/09/supreme-court-decision-bible-bashing-a-teaching-moment

Grace Filled Spirit Led. Supreme Court Decision and Bible Bashing A Teaching Moment? July 9, 2015. Source and norm for faith. I need to respond to this negative portrayal of our scriptures. Clearly people in some rather powerful places are taking this latest opportunity to advance their anti-Bible agenda. Unfortunately today, when it comes to interpreting the Bible, the pendulum often swings between simplistic flatfooted approaches to basically giving up on the Bible. Before we go to what it. To accompli...

You Are What You Earn????? | Silverdale Lutheran

https://silverdalelutheran.wordpress.com/2015/04/29/you-are-what-you-earn

Grace Filled Spirit Led. You Are What You Earn? April 29, 2015. In Life with Jesus. A common topic on sports radio these days is when is Russell Wilson going to sign a contract with the Seahawks and how much is he going to make. Will he hold out for the biggest contract ever or will he be willing to sign for less so that the Hawks can be competitive for the foreseeable future? And that is when it hit me how much we worship money, which is just another type of stuff. There is such an implicit assumpti...

Who Do You Know? | Silverdale Lutheran

https://silverdalelutheran.wordpress.com/2015/05/12/who-do-you-know

Grace Filled Spirit Led. Who Do You Know? May 12, 2015. I recently read an article in Luther Seminary Magazine [my alma mater] about a church in Minnesota that boasts having 14 sons and daughters who have gone to Luther Seminary. They have made it a focus of their ministry to identify future leaders in the church. That got me thinking. Who do you know at SLC who would be a good pastor? Who is comfortable talking to others about faith? Who you just have a feeling would make a good pastor? The church needs...

Self-confidence vs. Holy Confidence | Silverdale Lutheran

https://silverdalelutheran.wordpress.com/2015/06/03/self-confidence-vs-holy-confidence

Grace Filled Spirit Led. Self-confidence vs. Holy Confidence. June 3, 2015. Growing up in the 80’s, I was taught to believe in myself. Self-esteem was taught in schools, as we were encouraged to believe we could do anything, be anything, and achieve anything. Suggest that the epidemic has reached far up the age scale. [from The Narcissism Epidemic by Twenge and Campbell]. But there is also something hollow in believing that your self is your most important asset. I find holy confidence very freeing. ...
