My Name is Stumbling Block- The Day
Egypt has become Babylon because they are refusing to acknowledge Yahweh as the one true God. Egypt has redefined good and evil so that murdering children and enslaving immigrants is seen as good. We see their cities of “brick and mortar’ are built on the blood of the innocent.

Even though Martin Stephan had many troubles in this life, and more than likely committed grievous sin, which caused his expulsion from the colony and the church, God nevertheless used him to achieve His purpose here on earth.

What Had happened at Grace this week.
When the kingdom splits, Kings Rehoboam and Jeroboam desperately grasp for power and control, but God uses Elijah, a nobody from the sticks, to show us that true freedom comes not from controlling our circumstances but from trusting the King who went to the cross for us.
A lively Bible study on May 7, 2026 explored C. S. Lewis’s The Great Divorce (Chs. 1–3), tracing the contrast between ghostly insubstantiality and heavenly solidity, the challenge of pride versus grace, and the costly journey of repentance and becoming “solid” in Christ in light of Scripture.
In our study on May 6, 2026, we explored Mark 1:14-2:12, focusing on Jesus's escalating authority over spirits, sickness, and sin, and why He often commanded silence from those He healed.
We look at Solomon's tragic fall into pride and power, reminding us that true wisdom isn't found in building our own empires, but in the self-emptying love of Jesus.

In our Bible study on April 29, 2026, we began our journey into C.S. Lewis's "The Great Divorce," exploring the book's themes of Hell as self-imposed isolation, the choice between Heaven and Hell, and how the story serves as a mirror for our own spiritual lives.
On April 29, 2026 at 6:36 PM, our class explored how reading the Gospel of Mark by recognizing patterns and echoes—especially in Mark 1:1–20—deepens understanding, highlighting John the Baptist, Jesus’ baptism and wilderness testing, the “at hand” kingdom, the call of fishermen, and the upside‑down kingship of Jesus.
It’s easy to get distracted by building grand things, forgetting that God's true work is simply rescuing broken people right where they are.
The Great Divorce is my favorite C.S. Lewis book. It truly forces us to look in the mirror and decide if we are actually willing to lay down our demons and walk toward the light.
Make a Name - The Day
There's a problem; it is seen all through the first 11 chapters of Genesis. Sin is everywhere, and everyone is defining right and wrong for themselves. We see this at the tower of Babylon with people trying to make a name for themselves.

Prayer for the church from Martin Luther King Jr.
O God, our heavenly Father, we thank thee for this golden privilege to worship thee, the only true God of the universe. We come to thee today grateful that thou hast kept us through the long night of the past and ushered us into the challenge of the present and the bright hope of the future. We are mindful, O God, that man cannot save himself, for man is not the measure of things and humanity is not God.
Bound by our chains of sin and finiteness, we know we need a savior. We thank thee, O God, for the spiritual nature of man. We are in nature but we live above nature. Help us never to let anyone or any condition pull us so low as to cause us to hate. Give us the strength to love our enemies and do good to those who despitefully use us and persecute us
We thank thee for thy Church, founded upon the Word, that challenges us to do more than sing and pray, but go out and work as though the very answer to our prayers depended on us and not upon thee. Then, finally, help us to realize that man was created to shine like the stars and live on through all eternity
Keep us, we pray, in perfect peace, help us to walk together, pray together, sing together, and live together until that day when all of God's children - Black, White, Red, and Yellow -will rejoice in one common band of humanity in the kingdom of our Lord and of our God, we pray. Amen.

Re:Form - ReForm our Confession
In Luther's day, people worried about how they could be saved, and today we are no different. Forgiveness is something which is hard to understand. But the truth is, unforgiveness is like living in the darkness, and are we choosing darkness when God has given us light.
