  • Trusting The One Who Knows The Way - Lent 2nd Sunday Series

    Contributed by Shawn Vollmerhausen on Mar 16, 2026
     | 0 views

    This sermon invites us to trust God when the way forward is unclear. Through the stories of Nicodemus, Abraham, and Corrie ten Boom, we explore how God meets us in our questions and gives us what we need at the right time.

    Nicodemus came at night. That detail alone tells us so much. He was a man of status, a teacher of Israel, someone who had spent his entire life studying Scripture, teaching others, and trying to live faithfully. He was respected, educated, and spiritually serious. But something about Jesus ...read more

    There was a time in human history when childbirth was one of the most dangerous moments in a woman’s life. Jesus uses this event to describe something important about his crucifixion

    THE PAIN THAT WAS FORGOTTEN A message on the love of Christ TEXT: “A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.” — Gospel of John 16:21 “Who for ...read more

  • "I Have Always Loved You,” Says The Lord. "Oh Really? How?”

    One of the most startling conversations between God and His people occurs in Book of Malachi 1:2–3: At first glance, that sounds shocking. Israel questions God’s love—and His answer seems harsh. But hidden in that response is a powerful modern message that speaks directly to our generation.

    “I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED YOU,” SAYS THE LORD. “OH REALLY? HOW?” TEXT Malachi 1:2–3: “I have loved you,” says the LORD. “Yet you say, ‘In what way have You loved us?’ Was not Esau Jacob’s brother?” says the LORD. “Yet Jacob I have loved; but Esau I have hated, And laid waste his mountains and his ...read more

    Part 3 of "On the Way to Jerusalem"

    For my entire childhood, my mother was an avid bowler. Her social life revolved around her bowling league. She had her own team, and she was also on the sub list for the entire league.

  • Jesus On Trial

    Americans have a separation of powers in our republic, but this was not the case with Roman law. Caesar placed his all-powerful rule in the hands of the governor, who had Rome’s full authority to execute someone.

    In the weeks leading up to Easter, Christians the world over spend time thinking about the meaning of the death of Jesus Christ. We are going to be spending our weeks looking at what the gospel writer John says about the last hours of Jesus’ life. This is the worst night in Jesus’ life. Jesus is ...read more
