“For I passed on to you as most important what I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures.” I Cor 15:3-4

He is Risen!

“Not all those who wander are lost... Deep roots are not reached by the frost.” J.R.R. Tolkien

It could be that even the challenges of this season are growing in us a deeper faith that may be just what we needed to remain rooted in the days to come.

May we never forget the reality that, in Christ, there are no wasted tears, no forgotten prayers, and no acts of love hidden from view. God will use each one, in His time, for our good and His glory.

Practical ways parents can disciple their kids on the go:
1) Pray together daily before school.
2) Sit together in worship.
3) Share from scripture you read or teaching you hear.
4) Serve together to help others in need.
5) Listen to them and apply faith to real life situations.

“A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices.”

In a year filled with challenge and change, the message of Christmas draws us back to a far greater reality that brings lasting hope and unspeakable joy.

Merry Christmas to all our friends and family!

“God does not say that He will be our God if we do this or that thing, but in Christ He will grant us all things. The covenant of grace can throughout centuries remain the same because it depends entirely upon God and because God is the Immutable and Faithful One.” Herman Bavnick

Wise words to leaders from a lion: ‘Do you feel yourself sufficient to take up the Kingship of Narnia?'
‘I don't think I do Sir,' said Caspian. 'I’m only a kid.'
‘Good’ said Aslan. 'If you had felt yourself sufficient it would have been proof that you were not.’
(Prince Caspian)

“The difference between listening to a radio sermon and going to church is like the difference between calling your girl on the phone and spending an evening with her.” Dwight Moody

We could substitute modern examples of communication, but the point remains:
We need each other.

“To be loved by God, not merely pitied, but delighted in as an artist delights in his work or a father in a son- it seems impossible, a weight or burden of glory which our thoughts can hardly sustain. But so it is.”
C.S. Lewis ~ The Weight of Glory

“If you ask, ‘Why is this happening?’ no light may come, but if you ask, ‘How am I to glorify God now?’ there will always be an answer.” - J.I. Packer

@davideprince Puig hitting DH for the Braves and starting the 10th inning at 2nd base would be a nightmare come true and clearly a sign of the end of civilization. Let’s just go ahead and bring Kent Hrbek back to coach first. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Every tragedy is followed by reactions, like branches off a tree, then reactions to those reactions. Still, the reactions must not further blind us to the evil of racism and an urgency for justice. We must also remember, at its root, is our universal need for transformed hearts.

“It pleased God in His eternal purpose to choose and ordain the Lord Jesus, His only begotten Son, to be the Mediator between God and man, the Prophet, Priest, and King, the Head and Savior of His Church, the Heir of all things, and Judge of the world.”
Westminster Confession

“God's design in our pain enables us to look back and say: He loves me enough to take me where I would have never wanted to go in order to produce in me what I never could have achieved on my own.” Paul Tripp

Churches equipping parents are seeing fruit from their investment. Those who have ignored this calling have learned the issue was never lack of programs but the need to have their vision shaped by God’s design.
Thankfully there is still time to change and create a new normal.
