Today on the blogs...

Check out the following blogs...

Voddie Baucham for a post about Youth and Children's Ministry

Biblical Manhood & Womanhood for a post entitled "Modern Women are Unhappy"--a very interesting commentary on another article--check it out

Christian Counseling entitled "The Doctor is In" part 1 asking the question "Can our body make us sin?"--interesting...

I pray you will be edified and challenged by these posts.

Love our Neighbor

Check this blog out at www.desiringgod.org/blog entitled "I have not always obeyed this command."

Very apt after this past week's sermon.

God Bless!

John 13:34-35

In these verses, John 13:34-35, Jesus commands his disciples to love one another.

Jesus also sets two parameters for our obedience to this command: model and purpose

1) The model - Jesus - "as I have loved you, love one another"

a) Service -- Jesus had just washed his disciple's feet as an example

b) Sacrifice -- Jesus is about to lay down his life for them

Is our love for one another characterized by service and sacrifice?

2) The purpose - so the world will know

Loving one another in the body of Christ is to be a picture of the gospel in action.

What does our picture look like?

Well, it has been awhile. Times have been busy lately. Should be back to writing pretty soon.

Thanks for your patience.
