The Red Letter Challenge: Serving
Monday Mar 21, 2022
Monday Mar 21, 2022
You have done many good works that gave you a feeling of fulfillment and righteousness. You’ve received praise for some things and were content to be unheralded for others. Some may have been costly in time, talent, and treasure, but it felt worthwhile because the works were good and the means you are good. Many will stand before the LORD on judgment day saying, “LORD, I was good, so I’m entitled to my place in Heaven.” Is that how it works? When you serve, whom do you serve?

The Red Letter Challenge: Forgiving
Monday Mar 14, 2022
Monday Mar 14, 2022
The week of forgiveness in the Red Letter Challenge starts with this message. Before we can be truly forgiving of others, we must learn to forgive ourselves and fully accept God's grace. We, who live in a land of rugged individualists and self-made women and men, find it hard to admit to powerlessness in any situation. Grit and determination, money and influence, and social standing cannot help you with everything. There’s a ton of crud under the cushions of the couch (join us in worship to find out what that means). The LORD knows every little thing about you, even the number of hairs on your head, no matter how carefully you’ve crafted your reputation and image. He alone can cleanse and renew you. In fact, the LORD can’t sit on that couch until He does so!

The Red Letter Challenge: Being
Monday Mar 07, 2022
Monday Mar 07, 2022
The Red Letter Challenge has begun. This week we experience the first message in the series. The world and our pursuits for the sake of the flesh will wear us down with their relentless demands. It doesn’t matter how fast you go, there’s always someone who wants to go fast. Philippians 1:6 says, “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus” The only worthwhile respite is found in Christ’s presence. Where and how often to you spend time in His presence? Do the things you do in His Name serve Him more than you?

Introduction to the Red Letter Challenge
Monday Feb 28, 2022
Monday Feb 28, 2022
Are we missing the mark? Is our discipleship devoted to Christ more than self-interests? What to non-church people think of Christianity? Or, is it their perceptions of Christians? What would happen if we took a fresh look at the words of Jesus and then applied them in our lives? If non-church people could get to know Jesus what would they think then? This week we'll be introduced to the Red Letter Challenge and it could be the beginning of the most powerful Lent you've ever experienced. See you Sunday!
The Red Letter Challenge is a 40-Day dive into the words of Jesus that starts the first Sunday in Lent, March 6th. Shiloh small groups and classes are joining in and there's room for you. Want to host a small group? Great! We'll help you succeed. Just contact Pastor Dan. To learn more about the Shiloh's Red Letter Challenge click here.

Flesh and Blood, and the Kingdom
Monday Feb 21, 2022
Monday Feb 21, 2022
Paul continues his teaching about the resurrection in today’s reading, and we will continue to expound upon it, too. Paul says we cannot enter it and enjoy it without being born again in the Spirit and then transformed physically by the resurrection. Souls housed in the old flesh and being cannot enter Eden. It will all happen in the “twinkle of an eye” says Paul - that’s fast! This is interesting and exciting and you won't want to miss the learning, friendship, singing, prayer, and worship.

First Fruits of the Resurrection
Monday Feb 14, 2022
Monday Feb 14, 2022
Belief in an afterlife is not unique and therefore has no power to persuade non-Christians. It does not really do much for self-proclaimed Christians either. To such persons, life after death is an unreal, ethereal existence that happens in a mystical paradise, or is so unimaginable that it is not worth thinking about. As Paul argues, the implications of the physical resurrection are staggering. It means that we will be as we are now, but better. It means that everything else Jesus said is worthy of our respect.

The Gift of Love
Monday Jan 31, 2022
Monday Jan 31, 2022
The Apostle Paul's famous "love chapter" in his letter to the Church at Corinth conveys a radical optimism about the work of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit to move Christian Believers from placid, apathetic insurance policyholders, to thriving vital disciples of Jesus possessed by ever-increasing faith, hope, and love. The greatest testimony is the gift of love.
