From Anxiety to Peace
There are plenty of reasons to be anxious. We don’t feel secure, so we talk about cameras and guns and how to be safe. Halloween was scary enough. Jesus tells us to get past the fear and to trust in him.

From Critic to PraiseWhat does it take to get to praise? We believe all the bad stuff. All the criticism and complaints. We all know if we really want to get action from someone we complain.

From Alien to AdoptionSometimes we feel like we don’t fit or belong. We wonder if God is even there or if he listens to us. Adoption seems like a lot of trouble. All the checks on the parents and the place they will live. How do we feel at home when God seems to be in such strange places? We don’t get him to move to our place, we move in with him and get adjusted to his people.

- Sep 1, 2019Spectator to Disciple
Spectator to DiscipleChristianity is not an instant cure for sin to salvation but a process by which God leads us to a greater relationship with him. Jesus called some and others just followed because they were interested. What is the progression to become a disciple and why are there so few around?Scripture: Matthew 4:18-25
