09/23/07
Lectionary 25
Luke 16:1-13
Dear friends in Christ,

Get Ready- To Find the Lost

1 Tim. 1:12-17, Luke 15:1-10
Pentecost 16
Dear friends in Christ,
Last week I introduced our general fall theme for September and October- Get Ready! Fall is the season to get ready, as we’ve already been reminded with our cool temperatures that winter is not very far away. It’s also a good time to reflect on what it means to get ready spiritually, always being ready to live with and for the Lord. Read More...

Get Ready – For Complete Obedience
09/09/07
Deut. 30:15-20, Luke 14:25-33
Sept. 9th, 2007
Dear friends in Christ,
When you live in a part of the world with 4 distinct seasons, it seems like you’re always getting ready for the next one. In spring we’re getting ready for summer, at the end of summer, our thoughts turn to fall. And in the fall, we get especially busy in preparation for winter. Winter is our longest and harshest season, so it’s important that we have certain things ready. We try and get the leaves raked and the perennials covered before the first snow fall. It’s good to have the furnace checked, so we don’t wake up one cold winter morning without any heat. It might be a good time to check the tires on the car and get some new ones if they’re overly worn, or maybe replace that old battery. We’ll need to try and remember where we stored the boots and hats and mittens, so we’re ready when the snow and cold comes. At least for me, fall is the season to get ready, for winter is coming and it’s best to be prepared. Read More...
