4. God in Trinity - A Communion of Persons
God is not an isolated being, but communion and love. He is Father, Son and Holy Spirit; He is not one Person but three. Between the Father, Son and Holy Spirit there exists a pre-eternal communion of love. ...
5. Calling God Father
Lord's prayer begins with 'Our Father.' We must consider two things here: In what sense God is our Father, and What we owe Him because He is our Father. ...
6. The Friend Closest to Your Heart - How well do you know the Holy Spirit?
In John's gospel, Jesus says that in some ways the Holy Spirit will be even closer to the apostles than he was - as a teacher, counselor, and witness within their hearts. On the basis of those characterizations, I would like to suggest a personal image of the Holy Spirit that embodies all that he is and does for us: the Holy Spirit is "the friend closest to our hearts." ...
7. The Fruits of the Holy Spirit
Pentecost was marked by an abundant release of the gift of the Holy Spirit. The first major consequence of this outpouring is that it initiates a radically new relationship between the individual and God. God's love for us is so real and personal that He desires to come and dwell within us. ...
8. A Trinitarian Pentecost
"A Trinitarian Pentecost": What do I mean by that? I mean that in the event of Pentecost itself and in Peter's preaching on that day, there is a very strong emphasis on the Holy Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. And not as just some abstract doctrinal concept, a theory. No, this is reality going on here, a most blessed heavenly reality that is, at the same time, entirely down to earth. This is God in action, acting to save sinners, the likes of you and me. ...

11. Family Special: When Trouble Divides Us

12. Family Picture - Make Time for Your Family
Although my pursuits were bringing me professional rewards, my dad wasn't impressed.

He said that my occupational success would be pale and unsatisfying if I lost the love of those I cared about most..
