Masks

Last updated on: September 25, 2013 at 10:07 am By Cameron Trimble

Jesus warned of how religion can serve as a mask. He said: Woe to you hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which on the outside look beautiful, but inside are full of death. So you also on the outside look righteous to others, but inside are full of hypocrisy. Matthew 23:27-28 Today, a hypocrite is someone who says one thing but does another, but, in Jesus’ day, the word came from the masks Greek actors wore to represent the... Read more

Thought for the Day

Last updated on: September 18, 2013 at 9:11 am By Cameron Trimble

Christianity is more than a set of beliefs to be recited. When someone makes the commitment to live their lives in connection to the Christian faith, they are doing more than agreeing to a set of values. Unfortunately, the 20th century emphasis on being able to intellectualize our faith has left many without faith in God or the church because the concepts they learned did not match their experiences. Faith needs to be about doing as much as it needs... Read more

Drinking Poison

Last updated on: September 17, 2013 at 3:24 pm By Cameron Trimble

The gospel lesson on Sunday was the 15th chapter of Luke, which actually contains three stories about the once lost being found. In the first story it is a sheep that is lost. While 99 are safe, the reckless, relentless Shepherd goes in search of the missing one. This is a great story because, well, we have gone missing a time or two, and the fact that we are sitting here today is proof that this story is true. God... Read more

Thought for the day: The church is shifting. If church leadership and governing bodies fail to make the shift from management to ministry, they will continue to choke the life out of the mainline church. God is doing a new thing in the earth and the church that’s emerging is calling for authentic spiritual experiences that transform, offer hope, and provide genuine opportunities to engage God and their communities.
