Published October 18, 2016

(Delmont Record – 10/18/16) Hope Before you read the rest of this article, I’d like you to take a couple moments and think about what your hopes are in life. Now if you had to name just one hope for your life, what would it be? I often find it interesting to learn how the definition of words can slowly change over time, and how that change often reflects a change in the culture in which it’s found. “Hope” is one of those words. I’m sure we all would say that we understand the definition of hope, after all, we […]

(Delmont Record – 8/28/2015) The Best Thing in Life Is Free 55 “Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost. 2 Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy?

I will make an everlasting covenant with you, my faithful love promised to David.      – Isaiah 55:1-3 Next Monday, […]

Sabbath Rest

Published May 22, 2015

(Delmont Record – 5/22/2015) Sabbath Rest Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.  Exodus 20:8 This Monday we celebrated the Memorial Day holiday.  Now of course the word holiday is simply a combination of the words “holy” and “day.”  This is because most of our holidays have their origin in some sort of religious observance.  In the Old Testament, each day with special religious significance was to be observed with a holy day or Sabbath.  It was meant to be a day of solemn remembrance and also a day on which the people rested. Rest is important for human […]
