Once in royal David’s city
Stood a lowly cattle shed,
Where a mother laid her Baby
In a manger for His bed:
Mary was that mother mild,
Jesus Christ her little Child.

“Since I live close to work, I often pull into the parking lot before Pastor Begg is finished with his sermon. I then engage in what I call ‘worshiping in the parking lot.’ Often, I cannot turn off the radio because I am so caught up in the inspiring message – so I sit there and listen. The words, that I believe are sent from the Holy Spirit, are an inspiration to me, and I often speak of it to colleagues in my office. May God continue to bless your ministry as you strive to serve Him and spread the Gospel.”

“I’m so grateful that I found Truth For Life on a local radio station. I’ve been living in my car off and on for two years. I’ve always had a grounded faith in the Bible and in our Heavenly Father, but I was beginning to doubt His existence, and yet I kept searching for answers as to why I’m facing such a tremendous trial. I found Truth For Life and the teaching started speaking straight to my heart. I can't thank you enough for your ministry!”

In the final weeks of His life, Jesus set out for Jerusalem. Along the way, He began His most explicit teaching on His purpose: to die on a cross and rise from the dead. But the disciples couldn’t comprehend His teaching’s significance; their concept of the Messiah involved not a crucified servant who would die in shame but a warrior who would lead them to triumph and glory. While Jesus focused on His pending suffering, death, and resurrection, the disciples focused on their own importance. They just didn’t get it!

The hope no disappointments tire, the passion that will burn like fire;

Here at Parkside, we’ve been studying the book of Daniel and paying particular attention to the lesson of God’s sovereignty over earthly kingdoms.
