A Christmas Break from the Quarantine (What’s UP? Wednesday)

 

 

In a world where everything is falling apart, we have comfort and hope, because “…no words are impossible with God”. God announced to a virgin a reality that changed the universe, an impossible Word that she was with child, a Child born to save. And into our suffering, fear, dread, and loneliness, He says, “I’m going to save you. I’ve sent my Son to save you.”

Is God Punishing Us? (Bad Theology Tuesday)

 

 

Doom and gloom rages all around us these days. There’s a lot of law going on. You don’t need to hear that God is judging you, but that there was One who suffered death for you. There was One who was exiled for you, was truly alone, beaten, bruised, mocked, and died for you. And that One went through your death, hell, and fear and overcame them all.

Comfort for When You Can’t Get to Church (Headline Lowdown)

If you can’t go to church and it’s really troubling you, your Father in heaven knows your need. He’s given you His Word, He’s fed you His Supper, He’s baptized you. Trust in your baptism to carry you through this time. If you don’t care that you’re missing church, this is your call to repentance. Use this time to meditate on His Word and prepare to come back when it’s over.

Merry, Happy, Rejoicing, Lent Sunday (Fun Word Friday)

The Needy in Church First! – Gal 6:10 (Bible Thursday Thursday)

As a church, as a people, as someone helping someone else out…consider first those in the faith. Before you help anybody else, help those in the faith, the baptized. You have been died-for, die for others. You have been loved, love others. First and foremost, those in the family of faith. And then, when you have more time and resources, help others too.

Jesus: The Armed Robber (What’s UP? Wednesday)

Jesus describes Himself today, to a world that doesn’t believe in Him, as an armed robber. That’s right. The world has you, the devil has you. That’s your situation. You believe and accept things that are sinful as normal. But Jesus has invaded your world and He has stolen you, robbed the devil of you. He overcomes Satan for you. Not by force…but by the cross.

Fear and Dealing with Fear in Others (Bad Theology Tuesday)

If you’re not afraid, use your not-fear to love others and build them up. Help them out. Bring them along. We’re all going to react to circumstances in different ways. But perfect love — His love — drives out fear. His love enlivens us to love others…who may be afraid. Tell them it’s going to be ok. Because it IS going to be ok — in Jesus Christ.

Why Do Plagues Happen? (Lectionary Monday)

Plague and sickness can drive us from our sins and put things in proper perspective. In the OT, God sent plagues to save His people from slavery. In the NT, God crucified His Son to save you from sin, death, and the devil. All that God does, He does to save His people. If you start with Christ, everything that happens might be seen as ultimately good, too, by faith.
