“God blesses those who work for peace, for they will be called children of God” (Matthew 5:9, NLT). After being snowed in last week, we continue our look at the Beatitudes. As you read the above Bible verse. I am almost certain a face of someone popped into your head. You know the person, who can walk into the middle of a conflict and bring a calming presence.

Contentment VS Complaiencey
I want to ask you two questions that I want you to ponder on while you are reading this thought of the week. First is the church/ congregation you are a part of, are they content or complacent? Are you as an individual Christian content or complacent? While you are processing these two questions let me tell you a story.

More Than Happy: Pure of Heart
If you get nothing else out of this post, I want you to understand those who are pure in heart hold nothing back from God. This week we return to our series on the Beatitudes, with blessed are the pure in heart for they will see God. Before we dive into this I want to share with you one of my favorite Bible passage. It is Genesis 2:25 “Now the man and his wife were both naked, but they felt no shame” (NLT). There is a lot of rich spiritual/theological meat, in these words.

By His Wounds We Are Healed
“HE HAS RISEN, HE HAS RISEN IN DEED!!!!” If you have been to the store recently you know the Easter decorations have been taken down. If you live in Tomah you know the bunny at our Wal-Mart is no longer counting down the days. The Easter candy if it is still out has been marked down; if you have a sweet tooth go stock up. Easter 2018, is now in our rearview mirror.
