The Chapel Quotes
“Are there people in your life you think don’t deserve a second chance, a person or nation that you would rather see justice than mercy? As Americans there are people who hate us and hate the things we stand for, but what is our response going to be? Whatever situation we’re in, God knows best, because God’s character is unchanging. Our job is to follow, not to fully understand. Do we do well to be angry? There is a God who is in control, who really does know best, even when we endure hardships. He is not afraid to redirect our steps even if it means we will go through difficult circumstances.”
“In His great mercy God cares for all of His creation, especially for our salvation. We can complain about our circumstances, our situation, or we can see how God is working through that to bring about His plan. God is not afraid to bring justice where justice is due, but His desire is for mercy. Don’t let your anger for the world keep you from trusting in the Word. Anger doesn’t know best, God knows best, so turn away from anger in your circumstances, your trials and your hardships, and trust in God’s merciful plan. In our most difficult moments remember the unchanging character of God. He’s working all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. Run toward God in your most difficult circumstances. Because God cares for His creation, we too should desire the best for others. Our imperative today is to love our enemies and pray for their salvation. There is nobody in all creation that God does not care for. There are none that are disqualified from receiving that free gift of grace that was secured by Christ on the cross. In these difficult times when we feel like wave after wave is coming over us, we realize we can’t go through this storm on our own, we need a Savior, and that battle has already been won as we trust in Lord Jesus.”

Devotion 07/06/2025
Our Devotion, “Endless Mowing” is by Andrea W. Walker, a professional writing major at Taylor University and freelance writer for Church Libraries, Christian Book Previews and WBCL radio.
Summer is when temperatures are always rising, and the grass just keeps growing. Mowing the lawn is one of those never-ending summer chores. It seems like the day after you cut the grass, it’s already long again. You’re never done.
That’s how many people mistakenly consider reading God’s Word — an endless, repetitive exercise. It’s hard work, and you might not see the point, but you feel obligated to do it. After all, you don’t want to look bad in front of the neighbors.
Spending time in the Bible every day shouldn’t be a chore, and it certainly shouldn’t be monotonous. The psalmist David realized this; almost all 176 verses of Psalm 119 show how much he valued God’s law. He even wrote in verse 127, “I love your commands more than gold.”
How important is God’s Word in your life? Do you treasure spending time reading God’s commands as David did, or is it simply another chore? The next time you open your Bible, ask God to help you find delight in reading his Word.
Book Review 07/09/2025
This Book Review is by Elizabeth Winebrenner, a professional writing major at Taylor University.
DETHRONING JESUS:
Exposing Popular Culture’s Quest to Unseat the Biblical Christ
By Darrell L. Bock and Daniel B. Wallace.
Thomas Nelson, 978-0-8499-2615-4, PB, 237 pages, $21.99
Dethroning Jesus is a very academic piece, filled with numerous truths. This book explains six claims that pop culture makes in an attempt to minimize Jesus, and then reveals the error in all six. The book explores the issues of the authenticity of the New Testament, the so-called Gospels of Judas and of Thomas, the fundamentals of Jesus’ message, the God-inspired affirmations of Paul, and the tomb and resurrection of Jesus.
Bock and Wallace do a thorough job of explaining why the attacks are false, but they do so in such a way that is rather deep, overly documented, and outright confusing to the lay reader. I personally struggled through this book because of the academic language and heavy handed jargon. It is not an easy text to wade through. It takes lots of contemplation and careful study. This book is great for apologetics scholars, but the average church library patron will not find it “reader friendly.”
