Lightning Bugs Over The Mudhole

Sermon
Psalm 103
Kenneth Cauthen
Rejoicing In Life's 'Melissa Moments'
The Joys Of Faith And The Challenges Of Life
The usual way is to speak of the problem of evil. How can there be so much misery and suffering in the world if God is both all-powerful and supremely good? It would appear either that God cannot or will not prevent or overcome suffering. If we say that God cannot, we question divine omnipotence. If we say God will not, we impugn God's love. Certainly the reality of evil is a fundamental problem for believers. It erodes the faith of many. Paul Tillich was a chaplain in World War I.

Self-Serving
by David O. Bales
Psalm 112

He resolved to represent Jesus Christ and not to allow his negative feelings to overwhelm God’s grace. After a gaze at the ceiling with one last sigh of prayer, he began:

Emphasis Preaching Journal

As God's people we have a choice to make about what sort of covenant we want to live with. In Jeremiah the Lord compares what the people received under divine leadership and guidance, and what awaits those who choose gods that are not gods. The author of Hebrews reminded the people of just how scary that whole Mount Sinai business was and how disastrous the results compared to the boldness in which we approach the living temple and the lamb of God.

The Village Shepherd

Janice B. Scott
The wedding season starts around Easter each year, heats up during June, July and August, begins to quiet down during September and is usually finished by October. It can become quite hectic if most Saturday afternoons of the three summer months are taken up with weddings, but they are usually fun to conduct and a real privilege for the priest.

On one occasion when Jesus was going to the house of a leader of the Pharisees to eat a meal on the sabbath, they were watching him closely.
