Loving God With Our Bodies

by Chad Hanson
…we react in anger or speech (James 1:19). 5. Shout to the Lord: Psalm 100:1-2 speaks of making a joyful noise to the Lord and coming before Him with singing. “But I don’t have a great voice” or “no one will want to hear me sing” are simply excuses thrown back in the face of the one who created you. Stop it! Sing a new song! Make up a praise song. Shout to the Lord! Your voice was put there by Him and He only wants to hear praises flow from it. Per…

Advent: Lamb of God

by Lisa Smith
…away the sin of the world!” Ponder this a moment. Think of all the sins we committed as a world. We do not have to worry about those sins that we have committed because Jesus took all of them away, with one payment. We can never do anything to repay him for what he has done. We have a free gift that we do not deserve. We should be elated by this verse: We should find our arm hairs and blood levels rising. We have the freedom to live for God withou…

…in mind as the truer meaning of all the things we commonly say about blood — Jesus’ — and what it means for a long time. I have a pastor who is so fearful of us being mistaken for blood-atonement people that he has practically ordered every reference to blood in our liturgy and song changed to “love”, but I’ve known that was a cheap solution, watering down a faith that needs to be strong enough for suffering, too, not just filled with flowers an…

My grandfather and my father-in-law have repeated to me the expression, “a man on his death bed never says, ‘I should’ve spent more time at work.’” Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 says “Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is man’s all. For God will bring every work into judgment, including every secret thing, whether good or evil.” So, with your summer plans, make them and own them. Protect against the…

Daily Scripture Texts Psalm 116:1-2, 12-19 Exodus 12:1-4, 11-14 John 13:1-17, 31b-35 1 Corinthians 11:23-2 There is a term in psychology called “habituation.” It means that a stimulus has less and less impact on us the more we are exposed to it. We “get used” to the stimulus. As much as we hate to admit it, we have become habituated to many of the biblical stories. We hear them so much that they start to lose their impact.

Finding Hope in a Bleak Midwinter

And, really, they’re the only things we have that have any true value.  It’s winter now, and it will be for many more weeks, so it’s difficult to see the hope of spring or the joy of life. Such a situation—such a bleak midwinter setting—can help us see the love and majesty of our God who not only prov…

Yet one daughter-in-law, Ruth, remains loyal to Naomi, adamant that she will return to Bethlehem with her. Throughout this well-known Bible story, as the two widowed women struggle together simply to find food to eat, Ruth comes to know the redemptive work of God.

But some part of me simply can’t look at the wax-like ashen face, stiffened limbs, and red-eyed family members and call it a “good death” or “dying well.” It seems there’s something fundamentally wrong with this picture. Maybe the idea of a “good death” is just a myth, a label we’ve created to help us cope with this great jolt. The notion of being able to die well gives us hope that perhaps we can shuffle off this mortal…

Daily Scripture Texts Psalm 27:1-6 1 Samuel 1:1-20 Galatians 1:11-24 There’s nothing wrong with boasting about the Lord— to do so is proclaiming truth. It’s telling the story of the excellence of God’s character, of His goodness, His worthiness—it’s defining His glory. By telling what God has done in our lives, we point to the grace of the cross, to the one who is our Light and our Salvation, our stronghold in times of darkness. We point to the o…
