The fabulous Fargo was reviewed on this channel over 10 years ago, but you betcha believe that seeing it again a few weeks ago prompted some note-taking. So while the bright light in Joel & Ethan Coen's very violent comedy, the Oscar-winning France McDormand, is wonderful as the pregnant hero cop--and Macy, Buscemi, Stormare and Presnell are horrible, stupid or both--the point of this fresh Fargo look is to ask Reasonably Good Questions and make some "oh yeah" type points about the plot. So, geez, you're not sellin' me a car here, Jerry! Just lock and load episode #711 of Have You Ever Seen as I dig into Fargo for the second time in about 10 years.

You'll never end at the finish line if you don't begin with prayer. Today Pastor Austin helped us see that Nehemiah's prayer and reliance on God during his conversation with the king is what transformed the outcome. Prayer matters and it makes a difference!

How many of us care more about our spiritual reputation than our spiritual reality? Some of us, like the church in Sardis, need a wake up call from complacency. Jesus's letter applied to both the individual and the collective church, and that still rings true today. The consumerism of our culture can make us think that all we need to do is go to a church building instead of belong to a church body, but engaging in the spiritual discipline of serving is key to discipleship to Jesus. -- Join us for service online or in-person in Grand Rapids every Sunday at 8:30, 9:45 & 11:15AM.

All of the Christian life is a movement toward death; but how do we die well? By practicing dying and surrendering to Jesus. We can do this by practicing letting go of two specific things: our desire to be seen by others, and our desire for control. Pastor Austin asked us - where would we rather not go? And are we willing and able to let Jesus lead us there anyway if he desires it? --- Join us for service online or in-person in Grand Rapids every Sunday at 8:30, 9:45 & 11:15AM.

Jonah's prayer recorded in chapter 2 demonstrates his sincere gratitude for God's rescue, but also a continued defiant protest of God's plans. It serves as a mirror for us to ask - how often do we find ourselves either disobedient or blinded to how God wants to move in, through and around us? Do we recognize that God does unexpected things in unexpected ways with unexpected people?

How can we live as people who watch and wait for the Kingdom of Heaven when we can barely wait for the small things in our lives? Waiting is uncomfortable. But as Paul outlines in Romans 8:18-25, we can wait in hope because we have the Holy Spirit within us. We can have hope that there is more: more than our present suffering, and more than the world's empty promises of fulfillment. As Christians, our lives are lived in the waiting room; it's a room filled with true hope. His name is Jesus. Through the “PB & J" series, we'll explore how to experience the extraordinary presence of God in the midst of our very ordinary lives. --- Join us for service online or in-person in Grand Rapids every Sunday!

This weekend, we looked at the baptism of Jesus in Matthew 3:13-17, when He enters the waters to symbolize bringing order to the chaos of the world. The Father in Heaven then declares His love and delight in Jesus - all before Jesus's ministry even begins. Jesus began beloved simply based on His identity as God's son; if we're in Him, so do we. If we begin beloved, how does the way we begin our days help us to learn and embrace that?

This weekend we're learning from Moses - specifically, from the end of his life in Deuteronomy 34. This text brings up a scary possibility that we could work long and hard toward a dream, and at the end, God might say we won't see it finished. But notice that Moses didn't plead with God to allow him into the Promised Land. Might it be that after his long life with God, he realized that the presence of God was the real thing worth chasing after? --- Join us for service online or in-person in Grand Rapids every Sunday!

I'm delighted to introduce a man I've known for six decades. Max Presnell had just returned from England to regenerate his career with Fairfax newspapers, as I kicked off with Sydney station 2GB. Max recently called time on an association with Fairfax which embraced a total of 67 years- perhaps a world record in the newspaper game. I don't know how we can cover 67 years in an hour or so, but let's give it a crack. Max explains the reasons for his recent departure from the Sydney Morning Herald. He talks about the evolvement of his popular 2017 autobiography “Good Losers Die Broke”- a rollicking review of his life in racing. Max, son of a publican talks about the unusual experience of spending his early years in a famous Sydney Hotel. He tells a funny story about a lady who happened to be the sister of Stanley Wootton, owner of the hotel in question. Max talks of many well known visiting trainers who stayed at the pub when in Sydney. I'll let Max tell you about a chirpy little regular who earned the dubious nickname of “two bob Tommy”. The legendary writer talks of his father Roy who ran the pub for 25 years. Max talks of the white cockatoo Roy brought back from a duck shooting excursion. That cocky became a legend in his own right. He talks of his feelings whenever he walks into the Doncaster Hotel today. Max takes us back to his employment as a copy boy with the old Sydney Sun. He remembers his cadetship and the thrill of becoming a graded journalist in 1961. He talks of his lifelong penchant for a punt and recalls a massive win on the Doncaster-Sydney Cup double in 1961. Max was on steward's room duties the day Mel Schumacher was outed for life after the infamous “leg pull incident in the AJC Derby. His memories of the steward's inquiry remain vivid. He looks back on a sabbatical from the Sun and a long sea voyage to England where he freelanced for three years. Things got so bad at one stage that he had to “hock” his binoculars. The veteran racing scribe talks of several freelance jobs he was able to secure in England. He reminisces about a proposed plunge on a horse in the Ascot Gold Cup. The horse in question was a noted mudlark. Max was delighted when rain continued to fall but was in for a rude shock. For the first time in twenty five years, the Gold Cup meeting was called off. You won't believe what happened to his punting bank. Max looks back on his return to Sydney in 1964 and the start of phase two of his amazing association with Fairfax. He talks of his admiration for the works of Banjo Paterson. Max remembers his very successful transition into radio and television. A disagreement with Channel 7 Sports Director Rex Mossop saw him stand down from the popular “Punter's Post Mortem” programme. Some time later he returned to Channel 7 in a different format. He pays tribute to some of the great journalists with whom he got to work over a long period of years. Max acknowledges some of the great horse trainers of his era with special mention of Jack Denham. He fondly remembers the days when many racecourse figures carried curious nicknames. Max was unable to recall the name of his new website, but hopes his old fans will visit from time to time. It's my great pleasure to pay tribute to a true giant of racing journalism.
In John 14:6-7, Jesus makes what is perhaps his most counter-cultural "I Am" statement. As "the way, the truth and the life", Jesus doesn't just show us the way to the Father - He IS the way to the Father. As His followers, we must be obedient to His way and connected to His truth in order to bring about His life. And as we share this with others, we have the privilege to use God's living and active words from scripture. --- Join us for service online or in-person in Grand Rapids every Sunday at 8:30, 9:45 & 11:15AM (EST).

We continue our i am series by looking at another one of Jesus' statements and the story that it is embedded in. Jesus is the light of the world. His proclamation of this and the response that followed offers us the chance to reassess our source(s) of light and invites us to surrender to Jesus for true fulfillment.
In 2 Samuel 11 we read the deepest darkest moment in the life of David. It's a moment that, if we let it, can serve as a mirror to our brokenness and desperate need for God's grace.
Two moments conclude the feud between David and Saul. The difference between them was closely connected to who they were listening to. David was listening to the voice of the Lord; Saul was listening to the voice of others. This causes us to ponder a pretty pointed and obvious question: whose voice are we listening to?
In 1 Samuel 8, we get a glimpse of what's to come in the story of David's life - of a human king who will fall short. But if we get distracted by his shortcomings, we will miss the point: that King Jesus is a king who doesn't take, but gives, and refuses to give up on His people.
The third gift from the magi, myrrh, is full of both hope and sorrow throughout scripture. This is reflected by the reality that Jesus is the ultimate prophet - He IS God's steadfast love, faithfulness and hope brought to life in the midst of sorrow. None of these gifts from the magi make something true about Jesus. They represent the truth of who He is: a king who reigns, a priest who redeems, and a prophet who reveals.
As we wrap up our Vaux|cation series, we dive into how our work matters right now, and is just as important in the future. You can love or hate what you do, but do it all for God's glory and the Kingdom.
The Holy Spirit points the spotlight on Jesus, reveals who he is, guides us to Jesus and glorifies him (makes him beautiful). We must recognize our limits if we are to experience the potential that Jesus has for us.

God desires union with us. Look to Christ. You will grow in Christ as you direct your gaze to Christ. If you take your eyes off of Jesus Christ and direct your gaze to your own growth, you will prevent the very growth you desire.
Like Eustace & Aslan in The Chronicles of Narnia, God wants to rip off our old clothes and dress us in new clothes. All of this starts with us dropping our fig leaves at the feet of the King who rescues us back into relationship: our God who is our father, and we his beloved children.

A perfect gift awakens a response that realizes the value of the gift and brings transformation. In Colossians 1:21-23, Paul explains that Jesus's physical death offers the gift of rescue and reconciliation. Our continued faith and choice to make Him our foundation bring about the fullness of life that God wants for us.
Ephesians urges the people of the church to “bear with one another in love” because the thing is, relationships are hard and people can be annoying! Examining the original translation of the text gives us a rich understanding of what it looks like for us - and for God - to truly bear with people in love, even when it's difficult.
TLC believes that our response to the weak and vulnerable is our response to Jesus. Our acts of justice and mercy as a church are the outflow of a heart that has been redeemed, restored, and rejuvenated by Jesus. This belief is what shaped our value "Would She Weep?".

Have you ever asked - or been asked - “Do you really believe this?” about the Bible? As Christians strive to answer this question, we need to first understand what the Bible is and its intention. It's not about us; it's all about Jesus.
A Checkered Past Podcast hosts Steve Guthrie and Mark Turner talk all things racing with Newman Presnell.
Jeremiah is in prison, the Babylonians are invading Jerusalem, and all hope seems lost. This is the setting of Jeremiah 32:1-15. Even then, Jeremiah does something unexpected: he buys a field in the land occupied by the enemy. This prophetic act of hope declares God's presence in the midst of chaos, and His promises for the future. That's the same hope that God wants to speak into our lives today.

Our faithfulness to God can be compared to the kind of faithfulness required in the high and low seasons of marriage. In Jeremiah 7:1-15, Jeremiah gave a sermon challenging the Israelite people about their faithfulness to God beyond the temple gatherings, similarly to the faithfulness needed beyond the wedding day to the actual marriage. We can come with this same mindset of faithfulness on a Sunday morning while living in sin the rest of the week. But God invites us to live a life with him and for him, even when things get hard.

"Sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me?" No. James 3:1-12 carefully spells out that the tongue is dangerous and can be used by evil to corrupt. The words that Christians say should be wholly aligned with the values and beliefs of Jesus. If they're not, we must address what's in our hearts so that we can be trusted to consistently speak words of life to others.

In Matthew 28:16-20, Jesus' disciples (of then and now) are sent out with a specific task. Examining the impact this mission made shows us that it takes many people performing several different jobs in different places to fulfill one commission. When asking "What is MY mission?", we must remember that: 1) we were created to know and enjoy Jesus, and 2) God then created a specific mission as a gift for each of us.
Are you laying stones or building a cathedral? In the early church, there was a woman named Tabitha who lived an extraordinary life. It's a life that reveals something for us today: we don't usually bear future fruit by doing great things with uncommon gifts or abilities. We bear future fruit by doing a good thing with uncommon faithfulness. If we are going to bear future fruit, it's going to be the Tabitha Way. Acts 9:36-40.
In the final chapter of Peter's letter, we get his "yearbook message": Humble yourselves towards God and one another, and cast your anxieties on him. In these instructions, Peter provides the command and the comfort of the entire letter and we are met by a God who will never let go. A God who wants to protect and care for us. 1 Peter 5:6-7.
The Wimbledon Championships, building projects gone wrong, and living stones being built into a spiritual temple. In 1 Peter 2:4-10, it is made clear that when we come to Jesus, we become like him: a living stone that God is building into a temple, a place where heaven and earth meet. We participate in this reality not as individuals, but together as the family of God with all the blessings that carries.
Shaquille O'Neal undercover Lyft, the Road(s) to Emmaus, and how Jesus quickly becomes the host when invited as the guest. Eating a meal is one of the last things that Jesus does with his disciples before his death and it's the first thing he does after he is resurrected. It's at the table where Jesus breaks bread, blesses it, eyes are opened and lives our changed. Luke 24:13-35

As someone who also left a good job to hit the road for disc golf, I genuinely enjoyed hearing his own tale of throwing caution to the wind and molding his life around the thing he loves most.
