The Anointing of Jesus |
Stir Me, Oh God
A recipe for healthy Christian living. Start with the Lamb of God and the Water of the Word; add the sweet fruits of the spirit; add the bitter herbs of suffering and persecution. Heat through the fire of temptation. Stir well through Prayer, Praise, Potential, and a Pure Mind. Avoid Boil Over, Burning, and the lukewarm condition of the Back Burner. Cleaning the pot - a method for starting over after hurts. Stir Constantly - finding peace in a challenging world.
The Uriah Principle: When Your Soldier Can't Come Home
Confusion, hurt and failed marriages can result when a returning spouse cannot “come home” after a military deployment. Uriah, the valiant Soldier and husband of Bathsheba, was ordered to go home by his Commander-in-Chief. Instead, he slept two nights in the palace court yard, ignoring his beautiful wife. Why? This Biblical story will lay the foundation for a presentation addressing changes that take place during deployment that cause problems for couples. It will help us to understand the changes and find ways to flourish.
