Sharing Bad News in Good Times
Our book of the Bible for this Sunday is the prophet Amos who has the difficult task of speaking hard words to people experiencing good times who mistakenly believe that God’s favor is upon them. Amos is a strong advocate for justice in a believer’s life as well as in…
When God’s Spirit is Poured Out

Hosea’s Heart

Love for Those Who Need It Most
Our Advent theme is “Love is the Gift of Christmas.” Justice is what love looks like in practice. Pastor Doug begins Part 4 of our Bible series, and this third week of Advent sharing from the prophet Isaiah who talks about some specific ways God’s people can put love in action.
Love Is Stronger Than Death
All human love – spouse to spouse, parent to child, family member to family member, friend to friend, follower of Jesus to anyone else – all these examples of love are based on God’s love for us. Love in the Bible is characterized by self-giving and self-sacrifice. Pastor Doug shares about what Song of Solomon has to say about God’s love for us and love for each other.
A Time to Love
Our lives have seasons and cycles that influence us. Part of maturing is becoming conscious of the seasons in your life and how to work with them rather than against them. As we begin the season of Advent and look forward to celebrating the birth of Christ, it is a time to love.
