    Times of Refreshing — a word by Pastor Steele Croswhite from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "Here’s the truth. When you bring your sin into the light, times of refreshing always come. Not rejection. Not condemnation. Refreshment."

    “Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.” — Acts 3:19-20 (NIV)

    Peter had just performed a miracle—healing a man who couldn’t walk. The crowd was obviously amazed. But Peter didn’t take the credit. Instead, he pointed people to Jesus. Additionally, he told them to repent and turn to God.

    The Coming Harvest — a word by Pastor Steele Croswhite from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "Decades of simple, steady, quiet goodness had produced a harvest far beyond what Mr. Eugene ever imagined."

    I recently had the privilege of teaching on Galatians (6:6-10) at our weekend services. I entitled the talk “The Harvest and the Fire.”

    There is surely so much rich truth packed in all of these verses. But one of my favorite ones is verse nine. It says this:

    “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” — Galatians 6:9 

    Sometimes, it’s hard to live our Christian faith in a consistent way. It’s often tempting to give up or give in to sin. But this verse reminds us that the Lord is in charge of the harvest. Additionally, we will reap a wonderful harvest of good (at the proper time) if we don’t give up.
