“But when Christ came as high priest of the good things that are now already here, he went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle that is not made with human hands, that is to say, is not a part of this creation. He did not enter by means of the blood of goats andContinue reading “What Does Redemption Mean?”

Keeping Calm in Turmoil
Click here to read Acts 24. After reading the scripture for today, do you relate to Paul in any way? After all, he had people rise up, spreading gossip, and telling the truth in a twisted way.

There are so many things to worry about. The media doesn’t help. God is with usContinue reading “Peace of God”
A Holy Calling
Today we are at a point in the letter to the Galatians, Paul could be at a loss for words. Instead of keeping silent, Paul begins to prove why the message he gave to the Galatians is the right message and why/how he is commissioned to carry out this work. Today we pick up Paul’sContinue reading “A Holy Calling”
