I stand amid the roar

Of a surf-tormented shore,

And I hold within my hand

Grains of the golden sand —

How few! yet how they creep

Through my fingers to the deep,

While I weep — while I weep!

O God! Can I not grasp

Them with a tighter clasp?

O God! can I not save

One from the pitiless wave?

Is all that we see or seem

But a dream within a dream?

Poe is wrong. Though we have lulled ourselves asleep, the reality is far brighter and beautiful than we imagine. Christ is risen and so shall we. The dreamer who dreams is He.

Topics:

1. Bible study and hermeneutics for congregations
2. Kingdom of God is here right now: "in principle, not without remainder"
3. An exegetical examination of sending of the Spirit in the Gospel of Mark
4. God does what He does, it doesn't look like what you expect
5. In tough times, seeing is believing? Not according to St. Mark
6. Ambiguity of the evidence

Is it cooler to think there is a grand secret conspiracy based on human trafficking or that human trafficking happens far more often and far more normally than we are comfortable with? And how did we create a culture that produced Marilyn Manson and is simultaneously shocked and offended by him? Oh yeah, we are really all idiots incapable of running our own lives let alone the world! Have a listen to your mom's favorite preachers and intern with guest Raleigh Sadler of LMPG and author of "vulnerable".

Topics:

1. The sensationalism of human trafficking
2. Rationalizations of the perpetrator
3. Marilyn Manson and abuse, are you surprised?
4. Dehumanization behind the screen: friends and porn

Topics:

1. Urgency in today's Preaching - thank you Pandemic!
2. Disaster drags people back to the church, but what will be remembered about COVID times?
3. Preaching the Kingdom of Heaven is here
4. It's weird to preach to people who are not yours: pastors' secrets
