| Summary: Jesus’ view of the coming disaster in Jerusalem becomes an occasion for our understanding of the role of suffering in our lives and in our world. |
|
|
| Summary: Worldwide, Christians are the most persecuted religious group, and it is getting worse. Even though we Christians in America seldom suffer persecution, we cannot read Scripture long before discovering that persecution is often the result of being a faithful witness to Jesus Christ.
But whether we personally are persecuted or not, we need to stand, in every way that we can, with those who are.

|
|
| Summary: Although contemporary Christians rarely face outright persecution, they can confront the evil in society. If persecution caused early Christians to renounce their faith, apathy can sap the faith of today’s Christians. God’s grace enables us to endure so that our faith grows. |
|
|
| Summary: It is inevitable that we ask questions about the future. Far better, however, is to trust in God’s goodness and live with integrity. The future will make itself known soon enough. |
|
|
| Summary: Work is a worthwhile thing. We will not always enjoy it, and we benefit from vacations. But when we do work, neither shirking our tasks nor overworking gives glory to God. What does glorify him is honest labor, done diligently, and kept in balance with the rest of our lives. |
|
|
| Summary: If we live in an area where a disaster might be expected, it would be foolish not to take steps in advance. The words of Jesus about a general apocalypse for the world and a personal Day of the Lord for each one of us invite us to think through our “escape plan” in advance. |
|
|
| Summary: Our churches are places for mutual work and mutual accountability. This is what God intends. |
