Welcome to Life-With-God.org!

We welcome you to the new online home of the Life With God Radio Broadcast!  Please take the time to listen to learn more about our ministry.  Our broadcast is designed to complement local church ministry.  The Apostle Paul said it best: "The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor" (I Cor. 3:8).  The broadcast has been used at times to plant seeds of faith and at other times it has been used to water the sprouts of faith.  It would be good to think of the Life With God Broadcast as an extension of the local church ministry.

He's Alive
Written by Pastor David Kochsmeier   
Wednesday, 11 June 2008

Three men were talking one day about their accomplishments in life, what they were dreading, about who they thought would be at their funerals and finally what they wanted people to say about them as they paused at the open casket.  The first man thought he wanted people to say how natural he looked.  The second man thought he wanted people to comment on how peaceful he looked.  The third man, said he wanted people looking down upon him in that casket and say “He’s alive.  He’s alive.”


“He’s alive!  He’s alive!” was the angelic pronouncement made almost 2,000 years ago in the garden area of the tomb.  “He’s alive” continues to echo forth to this very day.  


In the Resurrection account, I notice that fear is remarkably present. The guards passed out in fear.  The women were tremendously afraid.  I can appreciate their level of fear for what they expected now had radically been changed.  Now, there was a heightened degree of uncertainty.  What was known was now unknown.


Our life is marked by fear—the unexpected happens; uncertainty is our lot; we journey into the vast unknown.  Fear hangs over us – politics, economy, relationships, children, and the like.


The good news of the Resurrection is not only “He lives!” but also “Do not be afraid!”.


The Gospel song writers, Bill and Gloria Gaither, wrote “Because He Lives”.  The chorus is “Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Because He lives, all fear is gone; Because I know He holds the future, And life is worth the living, Just because He lives!”
