THE SUNDAY SHARE

ByDr. Mark April 2, 2026 2 Comments
“After Jesus said these things, He was going on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. When He approached Bethphage and Bethany, near the mountain that is called Olivet, He sent two of the disciples, saying, “Go into the village ahead of you; there, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, on which no one yet has ever sat; untie it and bring it here. And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are...

NO FOOLIN’

ByDr. Mark April 1, 2026 2 Comments
Let me be honest! Monday morning, I did not wake up with my mind stayed on Jesus. I’m just being transparent. I did not wake up rejoicing because I had been blessed to see a new day. I ain’t lying, my friend. I left the house to go to the store and the post office. When I left, my mind was so focused on what I woke up thinking about, a huge hurdle, one that I was not aware of until Sunday...

NO SHOWBOATING!

ByDr. Mark March 31, 2026 2 Comments
In my high school days, when you played on a basketball team, passing behind your back or dribbling through your legs, or dribbling behind the back were considered showboating. All that has changed in the present times. It is not called showboating, but it referred to as skill. Things have changed. That’s basketball. But when it comes to your Christian lifestyle, these words still apply, “No...

“Now when it was reported to Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and to the rest of our enemies that I had rebuilt the wall, and that no breach was left in it, although at that time I had not installed the doors in the gates, Sanballat and Geshem sent a message to me, saying, “Come, let’s meet together at Chephirim in the plain of Ono.” But they were plotting to harm me. So I...

SHINY SILVERWARE AND SOFT DISH TOWELS

ByDr. Mark March 29, 2026 4 Comments
Mrs. King walks quietly to the edge of the kitchen.  I’m busy putting away shiny silverware and hanging up soft dish towels.  This is my routine.  I use one dish towel to place on the counter, setting washed dishes there to patiently wait for me to dry them off.  I use the other dish towel to dry them once all the washing is complete.  Mrs. King is still watching, unnoticed as I focus on...

This week, admittedly, the meditations have been long reads. So, as you can imagine, I thank God that you remained faithful in reading them. Let me express my thankfulness to you this Saturday morning by rewarding you with a really short meditation. However, keep in mind that the length of this meditation will not leave you without a thought that will linger in your conscious not for a long...

It’s March 2026 and our world is filled with sadness, madness, and anxiousness. For those reasons, people of all ages are filled with stress. To escape that which fills our world, a lot of folks turn to March Madness, the NCAA men’s and women’s basketball tournaments. However, not everybody has resorted to March Madness to get away from what I have described, which extends to include more...

DO YOU REMEMBER ANYTHING FROM SUNDAY’S SERMON?

“Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “I gave birth to him in pain.” Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.” (John 5:1-9a NLT Version) This is your Sunday Share meditation....

A SAYING AND A SHOWING

“If you give a man a fish he is hungry again in an hour. If you teach him to catch a fish you do him a good turn” (Extract from Mrs. Dymond, a novel by Anne Isabella Thackeray Ritchie, 1885) There are many variations of the saying above. Most of us have heard the saying expressed this way, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a...

FIFTY SHADES OF GREAT

ByDr. Mark March 24, 2026 4 Comments
“To God be the glory, great things He has done.” (Hymn by Fannie Crosby 1875) God does great things in our lives, every single day. To appreciate this, we need to recognize the varying shades of greatness. For you see “great things” are not always “big things. But regardless of the shade of great, we should be thankful and filled with joy. Just like the shades of the color grey that...
