Every week, the ministers here at the South Green church of Christ write brief articles for the congregation's weekly bulletin. The following is a copy of those articles, which have been adapted to this digital environment. Brief and to the point, these articles are designed to inspire, encourage, and challenge all. We hope and trust you will find them useful.
We all have worked or labored so much that we don’t even have the energy to sleep. Maybe we are challenged by the burdens of this world (health, relationships, finances, grief/loss). The point is this, we sometimes become so drained physically or emotionally, we simply don’t have the mental capacity to relax and “rest.” Chances …
Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Phil. 2:3-4 Two locations are widely recognized as the most likely spots for the resurrection of Jesus Christ. One, the most likely …
The GREATEST GIFT is Jesus Christ! Jesus is the Savior of the world, The Son of God, Author & Finisher of our faith, and the Alpha & Omega! Wouldn’t you like to get to know Him better? Me too! We are offering an opportunity to do just that! How? Our Congregation now has the opportunity …

And He said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat. (Mark 6:31) In the midst of this sheltering of families and the shutdown of numerous businesses, we have been forced to slow down. For …
Today, somewhere, some of us are receiving bad news, having to deal with unexpected challenges, existing in the darkness of being alone, having feelings hurt, not sure where our next meal is coming from, wondering how we are going to make that payment or we may be going through excruciating physical pain. During times like …
No, this has nothing to do with road rage or becoming impatient while behind the wheel of a car. In fact, it has nothing to do with automobiles at all.

I hope you have been able to enjoy the sunshine, see the flowers, and observe the greening of the landscape. Even in the midst of challenges, we can still see the beauty of God. I see a spiritual application as well. The church continues to reflect Christ and honor God even in the midst of …
“He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.” (Psalm 91:1) What I read Monday morning said this: Approximately 250 Americans have been told to stay home. That means do not go to work…do not go to school…do not leave the house at all unless you …
