When Mercy Grew on Trees
Family trees can be interesting, and revealing. And because of His mixed up, messed up family tree, and the tree that it ultimately led Him to, there is hope aplenty for yours.

Solid Gold!
Critical thinking is a necessary survival skill today. So how does one prevent the skill of critiquing from crossing over into the sin of criticizing? And why did this matter so much to Jesus?A new view of the Sermon on the Mount from the pinnacle of a beatitude.

The Two Word Prayer
It's heard mostly on the lips of the desperate and despairing. Too bad. Because while it's only sinners who plead for mercy, it's only for sinners that mercy pleads. A two word prayer that mercy can't resist. A new view of the Sermon on the Mount from the pinnacle of a beatitude.

How to Put a Smile on God's Face
Two powerful stories from the life of Jesus, and a personal testimony, produce a one-line message guaranteed to put a smile on God's face. It's heard mostly on the lips of the desperate and despairing. Too bad. Because while it's only sinners who plead for mercy, it's only for sinners that mercy pleads. A two word prayer that mercy can't resist.

When the Debt Ratio Is 600,000:1
It's hard to imagine such a debt - 600,000 times greater than you could earn in your lifetime. But there's good news for such a debtor as you or me. And it could take us into some surprising places.
03/31/2007
Something More Important Than Truth
Could there be anything more important than truth? If Jesus has the last word the answer must be Yes!
04/07/2007
A Severe Mercy
What does death taste like? Hemingway ventured a guess. In the language of the great story, the Bible describes it in vivid detail. There's no mistaking it now. It's a taste of severe mercy.

Whatever Happened to Justice?
04/28/2007
Mercy Comes, Mercy Goes
Ever heard of geometric progression? How about the Great Commission? Could it be that geometric progression hold's the key to the fulfillment of the Great Commission? It's mercy on the run again. This time with a surprising twist.

Offering for May 11, 2024

Disaster & Famine Relief

As we approach Christ’s return, the Bible tells us that crisis events will increase around the world. Emergency Management officials, who have tracked disasters for over 50 years confirm that tornadoes are touching down with greater impact, hurricanes are moving at greater speeds and mass shootings continue to affect our communities on a regular basis.

The Seventh-day Adventist Church serves those affected by these types of devastating events. Adventist Community Services (ACS) responds throughout the North American Division. Volunteers open collection centers to support those whose homes have been destroyed, support communities that have been struck by senseless shootings with Emotional Spiritual Care teams, and deliver supplies to areas of greatest need in the aftermath of a disaster.

Your offering this Sabbath will ensure ACS is able to prepare, respond, and work in recovery efforts that take place within the North American Division, which includes the United States, Canada, Bermuda, Guam, and Micronesia. While ACS is responsible for these areas, the Seventh-day Adventist Church has not forgotten the rest of the world and has another humanitarian organization that responds to events outside of the North American Division called ADRA (Adventist Development and Relief Association).

Please give this Sabbath to the disaster and famine relief offering, where your donation will support both ACS and ADRA. We look forward to continuing our work to serve communities in Christ’s name.
