    <description>Let's face it...life sometimes is hard and can just suck. When we are faced with life's challenges we can be discouraged, get tired, and become weary. What we need is motivation, encouragement, and a helping hand that keeps us going. That's the idea of GRINDIT! We find our strength to endure when we focus on Jesus. God's own Son wasn't exempt from life's challenges and He didn't do anything to deserve what he went through! And yet He did...willingly, therefore we find our hope in Him.

  <description>The church at Corinth has become proud and arrogant since Paul left. He started the church in Acts 18 and stayed in Corinth for a year and a half but after leaving, they turned inward and began to be jealous of one another and quarreling. He pokes at them a little by telling them they have become rich and have everything they need, living like kings who are sovereign and have lots of power. They have forgotten were their gifts come from—God, and they are relying on themselves. Paul will send Timothy to Corinth to help them learn some humility before he arrives for a visit. He gives them the option: learn now before I get there or it will not be pretty when I come!

  <description>Matthew gives us a time frame when Jesus, the Messiah was born and then he introduces his readers to some men called Magi or wise men, who were astrologers and studied the stars. One star in particular has caught their attention and they follow it for about two years. By the time they arrive in Jerusalem, Jesus is a toddler and living in a house in Bethlehem. Herod the Great has a conversation with these wise men and feels threatened after learning there is a new king in town so he has all the male children, two years and younger, in and around Bethlehem killed thinking he would get rid of this threat to his throne. The only thing he didn’t consider was this is God’s son and God would protect him to accomplish His will! An angel warns Joseph several times as to what is going on and hey flee to Egypt then to Nazareth. Can anything good come from Nazareth? You better believe it!
