I had a moving experience this past week and when I say “moving” I don’t so much mean that I was touched or inspired but that I actually had a moving experience, as in I packed everything up and moved, which in turn did prove fairly moving as well… Okay, I’ll cut to the chase.

So glad you stopped by the new site. We’ve been experiencing extra traffic ever since one of our favorite Bible Study teachers, Beth Moore, decided to facilitate the “No Other Gods” study on her blog this summer. (You can check it out here if you’d like to read more about it). If this is your first time here please feel free to look around and thank you for being patient with us as we are still working to get everything up and running.

Hey Everyone,

Just thought I’d post another blog while waiting for our updated site to launch (hopefully in the next few weeks!)

I’ve been reading in the Gospel of John recently and was blessed by something yesterday morning. Many of you are familiar with the verse “He must increase, but I must decrease” in John 3:30. It’s a solid truth in and of itself, but taken alongside its surrounding context makes it all the more rich…

Hello everyone! I hope everyone is having a wonderful Easter weekend! Middle TN had very beautiful weather, but my family had 12-15 inches of snow in the Chicago area! I’m so happy that is not what my Spring is like here in the south! I function much better with beautiful, warm sun in my daily life!
Our church had a beautiful Good Friday service. Respect and love for The Blood of Christ was the center of the service. The cross was in the center of the room with all facing it. We had a huge canvas standing up on the stage and three painters painting one mural as we worshiped and heard the message. The final image came into view toward the end of the service where we could clearly see Christ upon the cross wearing a crown of thorns. The painting was done all in black. But as the service came to a close, some actors acted out the final day of Christ and as He was betrayed and as He was beaten and nailed to the cross, the painters added blood to the Christ’s body. It was such a vivid reminder of what happened on this monumental day and I was very thankful to start my weekend in that way.

In keeping with the story of Elizabeth, there was something that hit me profoundly the other morning that I wanted to share with you. First, a little back-story… Elizabeth had been unable to bear children and was way past childbearing years when an angel of the Lord appeared to her husband, Zechariah, while he was ministering in the temple. The angel told him that he and his wife would bear a child who would pave the way for the coming Messiah, Jesus. This child we all know as John the Baptist, one of the most important figures in our Christian heritage…
