What About the Cross?
The cross of Jesus as the centerpiece of the atonement and our reconciliation with God has never been an easy matter to understand. “If God required all that torture, blood, and pain for his beloved son, how does it square with a loving God? If you’re seeking clarity and meaning of Jesus’ crucifixion, just follow the historical events as they are reported, and then ask some basic questions about human behavior, the circumstances of Jesus’ death, and God’s involvement in it:
Do You Feel Ugly, Undesirable, Unlovable?
Judging from the billions of dollars of beauty products that are sold every year, it appears that we really don’t like what we see in the mirror every morning. Sadly, there is a short step from this to thinking that others see us in the same way, and eventually imagining that God views us in this light. What we need to keep in mind is the fact that God looks upon us with different eyes. While it’s true that he looks

Train Up A Child—Back to School!
Following up on “do not provoke your children,” (Ephesians 6:4; Colossians 3:21), I want to look at Proverbs 22:6, “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” The Hebrew word is used three other times in the Bible and is used in the meaning of “dedicating” (Deuteronomy 20:5; 1 Kings 8:63; 2 Chronicles 7:5). So when we read “train,” the Proverb essentially speaks also of “dedicating” our children.
