In Times of Trouble
Written by Bruce (for an article in Dunndeal Publications)   

Romans 8:35 asks a question that is very relevant for these hard times.  The New Living Translation reads "Does it mean Christ no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death?"

We often find it hard to believe that God still loves us when we are going through difficulties not of our making.  There are some who might automatically answer that Christ never stops loving us.  But most of us would have to admit that, deep down, we wonder if Christ really does love us.  After all, how can he love us and still allow this to happen?

Why No Awe and Wonder?
Written by Bruce   

At LifeQuest we've been examining Worship.  It has been a wonderful journey so far and we have discovered a lot about God, ourselves, and our relationship with Him.  One of the things we talked about is how, in the Scriptures, an encounter with God always resulted in Awe and Wonder.

Awe and Wonder.  We were made to experience Awe and Wonder.  Humans are the only ones on earth that can stand in awe and wonder amazed by a sunset over the Ocean or the snow on the peaks of a mountain range or the emotions stirred up by a beautiful piece of music.  We experience Awe and Wonder because God formed us to be in relationship with Him and to be able to experience His presence.  Awe and Wonder can produce some very meaningful moments in our lives.

So, in one of our services I asked the question, "Where do you go when you want to experience awe and wonder?"  There were a wide variety of answers.  Some said the beach.  Others said the mountains or the woods.  Some said a night with friends and others talked about family and watching little children experiencing life.  Some talked about the excitement of new adventures.  And the list went on for awhile.

But there was one thing that was not mentioned: Going to church.  Going to church to worship with others in the presence of God or even our own private time of worship never made the list.  Yet one of the primary purposes for coming together as a community is to experience God together which should include the Awe and Wonder of being in His presence.  Why is it that the church is not at the top of our list for being a main source of Awe and Wonder?
