Ministry of the Church (1646)
Filter by:
  1. God doesn't demand that you wash yourself and come up to Him in holiness, but instead He comes all the way down to you in the filth of your sin.
  2. Rituals resist domestication and confront us with a world and worldview brought forth from the Bible and through twenty centuries of Christianity for the purpose of arresting our contemporary worldview through its self-sameness.
  3. John has been preaching a radical vision of God, where God holds people accountable for their sin and calls them to repent. What will Jesus do?
  4. In Scripture, to be "in Christ" is nothing but living in the light and reality of one’s baptism.
  5. Christ has come to make all things new, and water and the Spirit are used for His new creation just as it was for the original.
  6. While you are comparing your presents and life to others, pour a Sidecar, turn off the Taylor Swift, and man up.
  7. As we close out an old year, Saint Silvester can remind us God is the Lord of history and He has used and is using even people whose lives sink largely or totally into obscurity to keep the confession of our faith in Jesus Christ alive.
  8. We begin in ignorance and we end in ignorance. But, in the midst of our ignorance, Jesus is walking with us.
  9. Here is Paul’s repacking of the Christmas gift in terms of the personal and corporate implications of God so loving the world that He gave His only begotten Son.
  10. The receiving and/or possessing of a gift, even one from God, is far different than putting it to use.
