Turning the Corner on 2024 – by Greg Albrecht

Friend and Partner Letter from January 2025: We made it! We made it through another madcap, tumultuous, challenging and wild roller coaster ride of a year. We made it through 2024!  Or, more correctly, by God’s grace we made it. We made it because our Risen Lord empowered and enabled us, living his life in us. There is great news as we begin this New Year of 2025! God is still in love with you. He cannot love you any more than he already has, because he has loved you, still does and always will… to the MAX! God is absolutely head-over-heels in love with you.  He’s got your picture on his refrigerator and he has your name, ...

A New Beginning – By Ed Dunn

She had “The Gate of the Year” engraved on brass plaques at Windsor Castle, where her father is interred. In 2002, when her mother, the Queen ...

The Real Beginning – Greg Albrecht

It's here! The end of another year. What a year this has been! The grumps, the curmudgeons, the gloom and doom prognosticators, the fear mongers and the Jeremiad prophecy buffs have been selling their wares. Thankfully, the vast majority of the party poopers who scream and shout within Christendom agree on one thing—only Jesus Christ can clean up this mess! It does take Jesus, doesn't it? As we end a year of endless varieties of Christ-less promotion and hype in his name, it might be helpful to compare and contrast the understated way the good news first came into our world. Jesus' birth passed with little fanfare. Books about his first coming ...
