As the resurrection remembrance day approaches, I’m reminded that I serve a living God. Not a God who died 2,000 years ago, but a God that defeated death and sin all those years ago. He didn’t have to, but His love for you and me held Him there. He suffered for us that we may be [...]

Homeless Mark
Jan 3
I work in a large city, and if you’ve ever been to a large city you know that there are many less fortunate people than us in those cities. I’m not a man who carries much cash, usually none at all. I rely on my debit card for all my purchases. If I need cash [...]

The Unmerciful Servant

Doubting Thomas
Feb 28
