The Sting of Death

Cary Cox, from 2 Samuel 1:17-27. David’s song of lamentation for the deaths of Saul and Jonathan teaches us about the reality of grief in this broken world. Jonathan’s loyal friendship is celebrated. And the story anticipates the Son of David, Jesus Christ, who conquered death and the grave for all his people! Grief and sorrow are not ultimate or final in the kingdom of God!

Christ is Lord Of the Heart – Christ Our Life 16

Cary Cox, from Colossians 4:2-6. We have seen Jesus as preeminent over the church and the household. Now we see what Christ’s Lordship looks like over the individual heart. He calls us to walk with him in prayer and to give ourselves to the gospel mission.
