The Future, Jesus in the Feast of Trumpets
The Future, Jesus in the Feast of Trumpets
Rescue. Rest. God has, does, and will save people who are His and renew them. The spring feast of Passover celebrates God’s power to do just that, beginning with rescuing His people from Egypt nearly 3,500 years ago. Unleavened Bread and Pentecost, also in the springtime, remind us to be set apart for God’s purpose: partnership with Him in returning creation to the perfection it once enjoyed before we messed everything up. If we do this, we too will find rescue and rest at the end of this world to which the fall feasts of God look forward. 05/28/2022 10:33 AM

In the Taylor Press published May 14, there a notice by the Taylor ISD board of trustees regarding creation of a reinvestment zone. This appears to be the first step to give Samsung a reduction in taxes on land purchased after the November 2021 tax incentive agreement. According to news reports, the original 2021 agreement by the Taylor school board reduced the amount that Samsung will pay in taxes to Taylor ISD by around $300 million over 10 years. This is in addition to 85 to 90% reduction in taxes over 20 years by Williamson County and 85 to 92.5% reduction in taxes over 30 years by the city of Taylor. 05/20/2022 09:24 PM

“A picture is worth a thousand words.” — Old adage considered cliché by some. For one whose lifetime has been spent behind a camera, it still speaks volumes for me. 05/18/2022 10:22 AM

With sunnier days and warmer temperatures, backyard gardens across Central Texas are teeming with life. It’s an exciting time for gardeners as many summer vegetables have started to flower and set fruit. With so many plants in bloom right now, insects are very active. 05/14/2022 11:33 AM

Have you ever thought that you are suffering from arthritis, or others tell you, “It’s just arthritis you’re getting old?” Just because you are aging doesn’t mean you automatically come down with arthritis. There are many different types of joint pain that one can have that are not arthritis. 05/07/2022 06:08 AM

Jesus in the Feast of First Fruits
Jesus in the Feast of First Fruits
Welcome to week three of learning about the feasts and festivals ordained by God! Last week, we moved from Passover to the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which Passover initiates. Unleavened Bread is all about removing leaven—yeast—sin from our lives. Jesus came 2,000 years ago to fulfill the feast and make possible a way for us to be free and rejoin the Creator. I’ll introduce the third event (First Fruits) and connect it to the first two feasts and Jesus’ fulfillment. 05/07/2022 06:08 AM
