God's blessings evoke in us a profound sense of gratitude.

Our worries about the future are eased by our awareness of God's presence with us in every moment of our lives.

The greatest heroes of the faith are those who we do the work we don’t know about.

The story we tell about our lives dictates how we allocate our resources.

We are called to reach out to those whom Jesus reached out to.

God wants us to rejoice in giving the best of what we have to the work of the Kingdom, not to compare whose gifts are “best” in God’s eyes

Every person has to choose what kind of world they want to be a part of and invest in making that world a reality.

World Communion Sunday worship with Arlington United Methodist Church and Sudanese Community Church. Scriptures are read in both Arabic and English, and Pastor Martin preaches on the importance of reconciliation to God and to one another.

We are called to follow in the example of Jesus in sharing the burden with those who are suffering and carrying the hope of Resurrection for others when they can't carry it themselves.

How we understand who God is (not what we say, but what we actually believe) profoundly affects the way we go about our daily lives.

No person or group is unworthy of God’s mercy (and therefore ours), no matter how distasteful we may find them.

Discipleship leads us to drop the defenses in our own lives and give it over to God, allowing Jesus to “infect” us with the righteousness of God.

Being a disciple of Jesus is an intentional commitment to place God as our highest priority.

In God’s family we speak kind and loving words about and to one another, even when we have conflicts or disagree.

We should seek to know Jesus not for personal gain or temporary fulfillment, but to be closer to God and become whole.

When confronted with our sin, the most faithful response is to confess, not to cover it up.

The story of David and Bathsbeeba's affair and Uriah's murder shows us how we run into trouble when we neglect to tend to the responsibilities God has given us.

We have to take care of ourselves and tend to our own bodies and souls so that we are best able to use our gifts in service to others.

Kathy Campbell reports on Annual Conference and reflects on how love is a the root of everything in the Christian faith.

The Bible always points beyond itself toward God, who can’t be fully described by mere words.
