Sunday Word: “Lust gets pregnant and has a baby: sin!”

The temptation to give in to evil comes from us and only us. We have no one to blame but the leering, seducing flare-up of our own lust. Lust gets pregnant, and has a baby: sin! Sin grows up to adulthood, and becomes a real killer. ~ James 1:14-15, The Message translation [Graphic (click to […]

Sunday Word: “Confirm God’s invitation to you, his choice of you. Don’t put it off”

Everything that goes into a life of pleasing God has been miraculously given to us by getting to know, personally and intimately, the One who invited us to God. The best invitation we ever received! We were also given absolutely terrific promises to pass on to you – your tickets to participation in the life […]

Mother’s Day Word: “Her children respect and bless her”

Happy Mother's DayA good woman is hard to find, and worth far more than diamonds. Her husband trusts her without reserve, and never has reason to regret it. Never spiteful, she treats him generously all her life long.

She shops around for the best yarns and cottons, and enjoys knitting and sewing. She’s like a trading ship that sails to faraway places and brings back exotic surprises. She’s up before dawn, preparing breakfast for her family and organizing her day. She looks over a field and buys it, then, with money she’s put aside, plants a garden.

Long before he laid down earth’s foundations, he had us in mind, had settled on us as the focus of his love, to be made whole and holy by his love. Long, long ago he decided to adopt us into his family through Jesus Christ. (What pleasure he took in planning this!) Ephesians 1:4-5, The […]

Stanek Sunday quote: “He shines a spotlight into caves of darkness”

He shines a spotlight into caves of darkness, hauls deepest darkness into the noonday sun. ~ Job 12:22, The Message translation

Stanek Sunday quote: “Oh, that marvel of conception – What a miracle!”

Oh, that marvel of conception as you stirred together semen and ovum - What a miracle of skin and bone, muscle and brain! You gave me life itself, and incredible love. You watched and guarded every breath I took. ~ Job 10:10-12, The Message translation

Stanek Sunday quote: “Truth sprouts green from the ground”

Love and Truth meet in the street, Right Living and Whole Living embrace and kiss! Truth sprouts green from the ground, Right Living pours down from the skies! Oh yes! God gives Goodness and Beauty; Our land responds with Bounty and Blessing. ~ Psalm 85:10-12, The Message translation [JLS note: Commentary on this passage: The […]

Stanek Palm Sunday quote: “Look, your king is on his way, poised and ready”

When they neared Jerusalem, having arrived at Bethphage on Mount Olives, Jesus sent two disciples with these instructions: “Go over to the village across from you. You’ll find a donkey tethered there, her colt with her. Untie her and bring them to me. If anyone asks what you’re doing, say, ‘The Master needs them!’ He […]
