Misperceiving God
How frequently do we either complain or get resentful, misunderstanding God’s plan and good purpose for us? Too often! We need to push reset to refocus and see what he is really accomplishing in our lives. In the Old Testament Book of Ruth, verses 1:1-5; 20-22. Briefly, what we learn is that there was a famine in the land of Judah during the time of the Judges. Elimelech, a Jew of Bethlehem, left Judah and moved his wife and two sons to

Betrayal and Abandonment: Can We Forgive and Forget?
A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. –Proverbs 18:24 For it is not an enemy who taunts me— then I could bear it; it is not an adversary who deals insolently with me— then I could hide from him. But it is you, a man, my equal, my companion, my familiar friend. We used to take sweet counsel together; within God’s house we walked in the throng. –Psalm 55:12–14 No matter who we are, what we do, or
Come to Me
By Brian Rogers “Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” -Matthew 11:28-30 It’s awkward for me to speak about the above verses. Part of the passage I know, have experienced and can talk about. The other part
How Do We Pray?
Now Jesus was praying in a certain place, and when he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.” And he said to them, “When you pray, say: “Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread, and forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation.” -Luke 11:1-4 As Christians, we know we should pray because both the Old and New Testaments

From the Pastor: Valentine’s Day
But it isn’t about hearts, flowers, and chocolates for some. Have you ever wondered why so many romantic films are so popular? Unrequited love. Boy meets girl, girl falls in love, and then they part. And girl deals with deep heartache. At some point in your life, you meet the person who seems perfect for you. You’ve never felt more alive, you’ve never laughed so much with anyone else, no one understands you better, you’re sure this is God’s will for
Your 100 Day Prayer: Day 100 – A New Day
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. -Ephesians 3:20-21 Do you ever wonder how you can get anything done for God in this world where evil is thriving and no one is listening or caring about what you may have to offer? Dr. Snyder
If Only I Had More Money…
Pastor John Snyder and Alastair Hayward - Week 5 of The Study in Joy Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist. When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven. –Proverbs 23:4-5 Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. –Philippians 4:11 There was a motto from a bank from many years ago that said: “Money makes you happy.” Although pretty
Too Many Mistakes
Week 4 of A Study in Joy And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. –Romans 8:28 In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will. –Ephesians 1:11 Are you wondering if you can ever reach a point of joy and contentment when you look back at a life of stupid mistakes, botched
