Loneliness and Isolation

God made human beings for community, yet more than ever we live alone and even more in loneliness. Many of us feel like we are on the outside, isolated and alone. Sometimes we even fall into the trap of isolating ourselves from others. We wonder, can we find healing and community? Our God comes to us to be [...]

Hyperventilation

The Holy Spirit is the Breath of Life. Is it any wonder that a Vital Sign for Christians is the presence of God’s Spirt? We celebrate that God breathes into us eternal life. Today, we begin this series with a pre-Christmas reminder that the Breath of Life does not come to us in a hurried, frantic, “over-breathing,” which might [...]

Everything’s Ok

Everyone lives with a sense of “money-pressure.” Christians can feel a greater “Am-I-doing-enough?” burden—especially when it comes to money. What is the framework from the Bible that gives us a sense of, “I’m doing okay”? It begins and ends with the assurance that in Jesus Christ we are A-OKAY! Romans 8:28-39 and Luke 24:36-49     [...]
