Protect the Treasure

Mike Woods
2 Timothy 1:13-2:2

The Gospel, the Word of God, is a great treasure that is always under attack. In it, we have the "original" measure of life-giving teaching.  We need to guard this treasure and the best way is to be "strong in grace" and to pass it along.

God's Message

Mike Sullivan

Three Responses to God's Goodness

Patrice McCormac
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Regardless of our circumstances, we are called to have three responses to God's goodness. First, we are challenged to rejoice always in Christ no matter how good or bad are the circumstances. It is a choice we make to see God at work in the midst of our circumstances. Second, we are to pray without ceasing. We are to have an ongoing conversation with God throughout the day. Third, we must give thanks in everything, but not for everything. We have only to look at the cross to see our source of thankfulness.
