Read Matthew’s 2023 Lifewatch Sermon
The Most Powerful Essay Matthew Has Read this Year
From Matthew: I've been speaking and writing about Sabbath rest for about two decades, but only recently did I come across this short but powerful essay by Henry Drummond, "Peace Be With You "(Pax Vobiscum). Drummond says more about God's rest in 20 short pages than I have said in 20 years. I've read this essay alone and with my wife Nancy several times in the past few weeks, and we continue to get more out of each reading. It's a lot to digest, but well worth the effort: truly life transforming.
Drummond was a Scottish writer, speaker, biologist, and evangelist (a heritage and vocations that I share!) who lived during the second half of the nineteenth century. In today's broken, anxious, chaotic world, Drummond's wisdom is needed now more than ever.
"Peace Be With You" can be found in Drummond's superb collection: The Greatest Thing in the World.

REFORESTING FAITH
In this groundbreaking walk through Scripture, Matthew Sleeth, MD, convincingly makes the case why trees are essential to every Christian’s understanding of God. There’s a tree on the first page of Genesis and the last page of Revelation. The Bible refers to itself as a Tree of Life (Proverbs 3:18), and every major Biblical character has a tree associated with them. Join Matthew Sleeth as he explores the wonders of life, death, and rebirth through the trail of trees in Scripture. Once you discover the hidden language of trees, your walk through the woods—and through Scripture—will never be the same.
