Real Repentance Looks Different
What is real repentance? Is it saying sorry for something that was done, but then turning around and doing it again? Apologizing for hurting someone, but then continuing to hurt them? Being sorry means that you feel regret or penitence, which leads you to consciously change your ways. God wants us to demonstrate our sincere sorry over sin, because in turn, we will see the grace and forgiveness he has shown us in Christ. And that will lead us to love…
God is Gracious to All
How many times have you heard your children say “That’s not fair!”? How many times have you heard yourself say those words? We all know that life isn’t always fair. And God isn’t fair either! But think just for a second about what a blessing that actually is… If God was fair, He would not have sent His only Son to die on the cross for you and me. If God was fair, we would be dead in our sins with no…
Trinity Sunday
What is one of the most difficult to understand teachings of the Bible, that also happens to be one of the most comforting? The teaching that we trust and serve a Triune God. Join us at St. Paul’s on Sunday at 9:30 am as we review that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are three persons in one God. And then rediscover the comfort and reassurance this teaching provides for you every day of your life.
3:16
3:16 … You see 3:16 on the eye-black athletes put under their eyes to keep the sun out of their eyes. You see 3:16 between the uprights of an end zone shot of a football game. You see 3:16 on the white T-shirt of the rainbow warrior at athletic events. What is 3:16? What does it mean? What is the message? We’ll explain at St. Paul’s this Sunday.
A Glimpse Into the Heart
An ambassador is someone who represents others. Our country has an ambassador to the United Nations along with many countries around the world. It is an honor and a privilege to represent the United States. Every Christian has an even greater honor and privilege than representing their country. Christians are ambassadors for Jesus and represent him in their daily lives! How are you doing as an ambassador for Jesus this week? Join us as a “reluctant” ambassador teaches us all…
Saints Triumphant
Any discussion about death is always difficult. Funerals sting. God had that person play an important role in our lives. If we didn’t grieve, then something’s wrong. But this weekend, the Apostle Paul says: “There is something different about our grieving as Christians.” What is different? Join us and find out what the difference-maker in the grieving process is.
Face to Face
Have you ever met someone famous in person? It’s completely different when you’re up close and personal, rather than seeing them on the TV. We might imagine what it’s going to be like to meet God on Judgment Day, but we can’t wrap our minds around that one. That’s why God draws a picture of himself in this Sunday’s Old Testament lesson from Daniel. Join us as we find out what God wants us to know and what Daniel saw.…
No One Is Left Out
On October 31, 1517, a well-educated, ordained Catholic priest who was a professor of Biblical studies at UW (University of Wittenberg) challenged all comers to a debate. The debate focused on the central teaching of Scripture: “Are we saved by what we do?” Or, “Are we save by faith in what Jesus Christ did for us?” Join us to find the life-changing and soul-saving answer.
