The Sarah Corner – “And Sarah laughed”
Have You Seen This? I had trouble with the idea of turning 30 and was oversensitive to any signs of advancing age. When I found a prominent gray hair in my bangs, I pointed to my forehead and asked my husband, "Oh no, have you seen this?" "What?" he asked.
"The wrinkles?"
Today’s Sunday School Lesson
New Testament Postcards - I John 5:6-8
We believe in Jesus as the Son of God. Who is He? He is truth, and faith in Him is what brings the victory, not faith by itself. “Water” and “blood” were historical realities related to Jesus in His baptism and death.
Today’s Sermon
I Corinthians 15:29-34 Live for Today, for Tomorrow We Rise!Christ’s resurrection connects to our resurrection. Our destiny is wrapped up in the destiny of Christ. Since His life had purpose, so also does ours. Since part of His life’s purpose was to suffer, so also is ours. Since His purpose was to rise again; so also will we rise again. If there is no resurrection from the dead, why fight? Why not “live for today for tomorrow we die?” We live for today, for tomorrow we rise.
