“Mercy in Suffering”

1 Peter 2:21-25             {Prayer}             Benjamin Franklin once said that there are two certainties in life … death and taxes. We can add another to that short list … suffering. We all know what suffering is and we face it in some form every day. All we need to do is turn on the…

“Blood Money: King Asa”

2 Chronicles 14:1-7; 16:1-13             {Prayer}             “Finish strong! Don’t quit! Don’t give up!” Those words ring loud and clear in the ears of any athlete, of any runner especially. I used to hear those words when I was lifting weights in high school and when I was doing cross training workouts back in Nebraska.…

“Mercy in Temptation”

1 Corinthians 10:6-13             {Prayer}             One of the most prevalent causes of automobile accidents is that of distracted drivers. Distractions occur when a driver takes their eyes off the road to look at something else. It could be the deer in the field, it could be the person sitting next to you, it could…

“Mercy in Ashes”

Joel 2:12-13             {Prayer}             In our more contemporary society, we don’t really encounter ashes. We live in a culture which sanitizes pretty much everything.

Matthew 17:1-9 {Prayer}             For some reason, maybe it was the accent and the obscure timing of the question, but I have always loved this commercial. Show clip. Here you got the poor guy trying to enjoy the finer pleasure of life with his meal and he is rudely interrupted. I’m sure he really enjoyed…

“House Rules”

Matthew 5:21-37             {Prayer}             A quick show of hands, how many of you have ever heard of “house rules”? By definition, “house rules” are the rules which people make in order to live together in some kind of peace and harmony. Sometimes they are posted on the fridge, written out on a marker board,…

“Let Your Light Shine”

Matthew 5:13-20             {Prayer}             I am a fan of storms. I love to watch storms approach, I love to listen to the rain, watch the lightening and feel the rumble of the thunder. Probably one of the eeriest things to me though is when it’s evening time, that storm outside is doing the things…

“Being Born”

Isaiah 49:1-7           {Prayer}             Eating breakfast around our table one day this week, my family and I got on the topic somehow of why is it that babies cry when they are born. Maybe we got on the topic because it was cold in our house, which is what Jessica and Faith think all…
