Pastor's Corner

for Sunday March 20th
No Grave Deep Enough
Did you hear about the man who was about to be rescued after spending a long time ship-wrecked on a tiny deserted island. The sailor in charge of the rescue team stepped onto the beach and handed the man a stack of newspapers. "Compliments of the Captain," the sailor said. "He would like you to glance at the headlines to see if you'd still like to be rescued!" I can relate! Sometimes the headlines make us feel that evil is winning. It seems that every week some high official or prominent person is caught in a scandal and it would seem that the majority of people don’t care! Christian ministries are being shut down. Things we as Christians took for granted are being challenged every day. It can become quite discouraging. But then we remember, we believe that Jesus rose from the dead! Every time we take communion we are reminded that there was no grave deep enough, no seal imposing enough, no stone heavy enough, no evil strong enough to keep our Savior in the grave. He is risen! And we are more than conquerors through Him!
