Magnificat John the Baptist and Jesus Christ met while their mothers were still carrying them in their wombs. Elizabeth acknowledged the young One in Mary’s womb as Lord, and John leapt in excitement. It was an incredible encounter, a meeting of the two covenants, Old and New.

Getting Ready for Jesus As the early Christians looked back at Jesus’ ministry, they recognized what God had done through Him. They also realized that God’s work had actually been started through John the Baptist. John was the forerunner, the herald, sent ahead to announce the coming of Christ. Dr. Philip Ryken teaches abo

Knowing For Sure Doubt. Little by little it gnaws away at the soul. Now to be sure, there are times when Christianity seems to make all the sense in the worldwhen the mysteries of the faith appear so certain that it would be foolish even to call them into question, and yet there are also times when we have our doubt

Art for God's Sake Have you ever looked at a work of modern art and been puzzled as to its message or purpose? So much of the art in the world today seems to be odd that we find it hard to fit it into our Christian world-view. But what’s the bigger question what role do the arts play in the church today? What does Go

Bought with a Price You belong to me. Did you know that there are over 50 songs that have been written about those four simple words? Jazz, pop, country -- artists of all kinds of music have written lyrics about this concept that conveys such strong feelings. But these feelings didn’t start with us.

Sweet Alter of Prayer Is your prayer life where you want it to be? Do you ever feel like the words you’re trying to lift up to God’s ear just fall to the floor the minute they leave your lips? We all feel like that at times.

The Big Picture Have you ever wondered what your purpose in life is? It’s easy to wonder -- we don’t always feel like our lives are achieving any greatness. Well, there is a purpose...but with all the difficulties and distractions of daily life, it is easy for us to get lost in the details.

The Ordination of the Priests We often describe our Christian communities as a body of believers or God’s church family. You might call yourself a believer or a follower of Christ. But do you ever think of yourself as a priest, or as part of a royal priesthood?

Fit for a Priest Most of us wear our Sunday best for church. We try to look a little nicer than normal, as it’s after all for worship. So too the priests of Israel had fine garments they had to wear when entering into God’s presence. But one Priest didn’t wear them when he made His sacrifice. He didn’t need outward

Knowing God's Will Have you ever wanted to know exactly what God wanted you to do? Decision-making can be difficult, and when it’s time to make an important life choice, people often wish that God would write his will for them in the sky.

A Priest Before The priests of the Old Testament were holy men with a holy calling. They were servants of God, offering sacrifices to Him for the entire nation of Israel day and night.

The Alter in the Courtyard Many people today say that they want to know God. But what there really interested in is what God can do for them. They’ve got a lot of questions they’d like him to answer, problems they’d like him to solve, and blessing they’d like him to give. But this is not how God operates. God is holy, we’re n

The Tabernacle of God When the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded in 1986, President Ronald Reagan spoke of the astronauts having slipped the surly bonds of earth to touch the face of God. This phrase expresses one of our deepest longings. We want to meet with God. We want to see him -- the only problem is, we’re sinners.
