Reflections Along the Jesus Way
May 30, 2023 - Quote for the Day:
“I was recently reading a brief essay by an unknown author – let me share some of it with you:
Religion enslaves; Christ liberates!
Religion condemns; Christ pardons!
Religion brings pain, heartache and tears; Christ heals and wipes the tears away.
Religion searches for meaning in life; Christ, who is our life, is the ...
Grace Poured Out
The elements of bread and wine/juice instituted by Jesus are symbols of the limitless favor and lavish grace of God, poured out on us without measure.
Grace = No Condemnation

Bible publishers have long titled the Bible as ‘holy.’ God alone is holy. God alone is infallible and inerrant. Humans are created, mortal and less than perfect – all that we touch and produce falls short of perfection and ...
Battle About the Bible – by Greg Albrecht
... we do not worship the Bible. We do not believe it to be infallible. We believe that God alone is infallible. No human or human product is infallible. The Bible helps us to know God as God reveals himself to us through its pages.
A 58-Word Sermon
