Three Contrasting Kingdom Visions
Matthew 6:19-24 19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. 22 “The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light, 23 but if your eye is bad, your whole…
When You Fast
Matthew 6:16-18 16 “And when you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 17 But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, 18 that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
Pray Like This…Part 3
Matthew 6:9-13 “Our Father in heaven,hallowed be your name.10 Your kingdom come,your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.11 Give us this day our daily bread,12 and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
“Pray Like This…” Part 2
Matthew 6:9-15 9 Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven,hallowed be your name.10 Your kingdom come,your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.11 Give us this day our daily bread,12 and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.13 And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. 14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, 15 but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Bible Reading Plans
In the Bible’s most extended mediation on the benefits of reading and meditating on God’s word, Psalm 119, the psalmist writes, “Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law” (v.18). The assumption is that there are wonderful things to be seen in God’s word. Thus, if wonders are to be seen and beheld, then one be in God’s word. There’s no better way to be in God’s word than having a plan to do so.…
Peace is Not Found in Princes or Presidents
The calls and texts over the past few days, have stirred my heart. Election stress. Vote counting chaos. It appears that for many there is a tsunami of despair about to sweep us away. Are we really approaching “the end of democracy,” as so many national headlines proclaim? If one fills one’s mind with cable news, one will certainly be unable to sleep at night. I invite you to fill your heart and mind with the eternal words of God…
Is There Hope for the Future?
As I watch the world, sometimes I wonder if it will survive. The stress points of society seem to continue to increase. The virus was stressful enough by itself. Then came the financial fallout as a result. These were uncharted waters; a global pandemic and a recession worse than 1929. Then the little boat of our country was pummeled by hurricane Racism. We reeled in its terrible winds. It seems to me that one more national crisis will be the…
