We can say things like “In God We Trust,” but what do we mean? Do we really trust?

Pastor Tim turns to Malachi to think about what God really calls us to do and the hope we find when we follow Him in His grace.


When evil seems to be prospering, the temptation can be to find a backup plan instead of God’s way. Do we need one?

Easter is God’s profound statement that He not only listens, but He also saves.
“I have asked the Lord for one thing— this is what I desire! I want to live in the Lord’s house all the days of my life, so I can gaze at the splendor of the Lord and contemplate in his temple. He will surely give me shelter in the day of danger; he will hide me in his home. He will place me on an inaccessible rocky summit.”

The Boys are back — one standing, one sitting — both trying to make sense of Cardinals chaos, Blues heartbreak and the first hundred days of Trump 2.0. Plus: speculation on the next album from Taylor Swift and a meditation on the mystery of Jesus’ two natures.

An important distinction exists between suffering and consequences. The Fall has brought suffering into the human experience and also the human tendency to want to do what is wrong. Remembering the distinction is important, because we often choose to do what’s wrong.

Pastor Tim has already written about this in light of another assassination attempt on either President Trump or other members of the administration.
Many people are unhealthily and dangerously angry, and it seems like it’s getting worse.

Tonight, I can’t stop thinking, this isn’t the way. A third assassination attempt against President Trump was all too narrowly thwarted mere months after the actual assassination of another national political figure. We need to treat the illness these evil acts are the symptoms of.
