“Walk In Light of the Resurrection” 1 John 1.1-2.2
Jesus’ redemptive work in this world is finished; He said so on the cross. His resurrection sealed the deal. Of course we still wait for the last day and the resurrection of all flesh and life in the world to come. But now it is time for us to be at work. We are the […]

“Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!” Mark 1 9-15
This week we look at Mark 1:9-15 and see how Jesus, once baptized was driven out into the desert with the wild beasts to be tempted by Satan.

As Christians we have been set free from enslavement to the devil. Now we are enslaved willingly to Christ Jesus! However, we still live in a sinful world, and we still are attached to our old sinful natures and are vulnerable to being enslaved to things in this world. In our Epistle lesson this week, […]
“Baptized Into Each Other!” Mark 1 4-11
You have heard it many times before, “We have been baptized into Christ Jesus.” It is easy just to let those words fall on deaf ears, or go in one ear and out of the other. Few take the time to ponder the mystery and seek what the Scriptures are telling us when they say […]
