Nailing It Down
Pastor Hamilton
This chapter provides dads with something to teach, and children with something to learn. The greatest lesson a father can teach is how to be content with Christ and how to pursue his will.
Guilty! Guilty! Justified!
Pastor Hamilton
Mankind is dying and condemned. The bleakness of the picture must be accepted before the good news can be. Hope is not recognized as hope unless one sees first a hopeless situation.
God’s Reminder
Pastor Hamilton
How Jehovah-God affirmed his commitment to his people is moving and powerful. What a memorial to his loving-kindness! God showed power and sent prophets to prove irrefutably that he was able to deliver Israel. They had no reason to doubt him. God doesn’t need to write himself a note so that he doesn’t forget. He didn’t […]
On That Day
Mark Perry
The biblical message of the coming Day of the Lord fills our hearts with confident faith, because even as we live in a sin-cursed world, we “walk by faith, not by sight,” knowing our eternal home is with Jesus (2 Cor 5:6–8). It motives us to eager prayer and fills our lives with longing for this redemption […]

Living Here Below
Pastor Hamilton
With all the complexities of daily human existence, we do have some comforting truths. First, God is always governing over his creation (vv. 2–11). Second, God is faithful to bless those who fear him (vv. 12–14).
The Greatest Example
Pastor Hamilton
Jesus’ example of sacrifice is the greatest example of giving.
When Fortunes Are Restored
Mark Perry
God’s creation, marred and afflicted by sin, will one day be restored. God’s redemptive plan for the cosmos is centered in one Man, Jesus Christ. The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent, because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has […]
You Are Salt; You Are Light
Stephen King
Jesus describes the internal change his disciples undergo in the Beatitudes (vv. 3–12) and then the external results: salt and light (vv. 13–16).
