“Remembering Our Baptism”

OHPC.us Admin — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 03:46:12 +0000

Baptism by water and fire. As that similar to being thrown into the frying plan and learning as you go as they say? is it a terrible ordeal? The Fire is actually The “heat” of God’s holiness. These fires don’t consume, they make holy. It’s like when you site in front of the campfire for a little too long, your face might begin to “glow” a bit, turn a little red. You might even start to sweat a little, take on a little “luster”. At our baptisms we take on a new luster. A luster and look of Christ. luke 3:15-17 21-22

“Like a Child: Light and Love” (we welcome Doug Bradbury)

OHPC.us Admin — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 20:04:47 +0000

Universal motherhood. Maternal instinct that they will do anything for their kids. Just like a mother. You are a well loved child with Jesus. What life giving energy makes a flower grow? Jesus is the life force of creation. Are we missing it? If you had 3 minutes with Jesus, what would he speak about you in your life? Is there a distraction in your life that keeps you from loving others? John 1: 1-13
