"Christianity is a cross-shaped faith. The vertical relationship creates horizontal obligations." - Taken from David French's article - "Selfishness is not a Virtue" - NYT. It echoes what NT writer John writes... "How we can claim a love of God and hate our brother?" I Jn 4:20

A Moment that Matters for the 4th...

[Jon Roebuck @JonRoebuck]

The shape of one's anatomy should not determine the extent of one's call. The role of the church is to celebrate God's calling in a person's life, not limit the reach of His call.

[Jon Roebuck @JonRoebuck]

We often forget that those who reject the message of Christ are not our enemies, they are the mission field. Rather than call down "fire on their heads" in an act of condemnation and judgement, maybe we find ways to offer love, grace, and friendship. (Luke 9:51-55)

[Jon Roebuck @JonRoebuck]

The problem is that when we as Christains lose our directional focus, so does the world around us. Our goal is to be the voice of civility, reason, grace, and goodness, not simply to add more angry static to conversations that are anything but Christ-like.

[Jon Roebuck @JonRoebuck]

I have discovered that those who truly speak on behalf of God tend to offer more grace than condemnation, more mercy than judgment, more unity than divisiveness, more peace than anger, more acceptance than arbitrary barriers. The true prophets speak with civility and respect.

Happy New Year from Belmont University! It’s that moment when we think of new beginnings, new hopes and dreams, new promises and commitments. We want to offer a prayer for you as we sail forward into a new year. May it be a good year for us all.

Merry Christmas from Belmont University! Today is a day that should remind us that when the time was just right, God offered us His best gift. Today we again celebrate that Christ the Savior is born.

[Belmont University @BelmontUniv]

Christmas offers us the gift of the Christ child, which means hope, peace, and joy. For the Father there is a cost; the giving of His Son to one day redeem us from our sins. But as a Father, it must surely warm His heart to offer us a gift that brings lasting joy.

When you are struggling with self-forgiveness, remember that God is not having the same struggle. “As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.” Psalm 103:12-13 (NASB)
