  • Pastor's Corner: Practicing the discipline of servant humility

    Apr 26, 2024

    (John 13:1-17) So far in this important election year, I am not seeing any Servant Humility. How about you? Jesus washed the disciple's feet in order to demonstrate the humility with which his disciples are to continue as messengers of his Word and his Way.

The "herd" mentality dominates and if for whatever reason this cow or that appeals to others, they will follow without thought.

  • Letter to the Editor - I"m tapped out

    Apr 26, 2024

    Dear Salvation Army, I have donated pretty faithfully in the past years, but now I am also struggling to make ends meet. Perhaps you could ask Ukraine or some of the other dozens of countries we send foreign aid (my tax dollars) to if they could spare some cash. Maybe some of the illegals coming freely across our borders could share a bit of the money they are given, whatever the source of funding that is. Perhaps our politicians could share some of their pay and perks. Maybe they could hook you up with a sweetheart deal...
