  • The Greatest Commandment

    Contributed on Oct 18, 2025
     | 86 views

    This morning Jesus once again takes on the leaders in Jerusalem who want to humiliate him publicly. What is the greatest commandment they ask. Of course, He is ready with an answer!

    The Greatest Commandment Good Morning. Last week, we had an amazing Gospel lesson, which reflects well on today’s lesson. The Pharisees tried to trap Jesus there like they did today, after inviting him to a Sabbath dinner. As they sat to eat, there at the table was a man suffering terribly with ...read more

  • When God Turns On The Light

     | 67 views

    Elijah’s encounter with the widow of Zarephath shows how God uses seasons of loss and exposure to bring healing and faith. When God turns on the light, it isn’t to shame us, but to lead us to confession, forgiveness, and life.

    When God Turns on the Light GM. Elijah may almost seem like a superhero when you read through some of the events in his life: He’s the prophet who calls down fire from heaven a number of times, most famously in the Battle on Mt Carmel with the Prophets of Baal. At the end of his life, he ascends ...read more

    Through the Miracle of the Raising of Lazarus, John teaches us a number of important things we need to know about God. 

    Good Morning. My wife saw on the internet the other day a man at a gas station who promised to pay for people’s gas if they could recite 1 Bible verse. 6 people were challenged, and sadly all 6 failed. So, if you ever meet this person, today’s Gospel lesson is your easy button. Jesus Wept it’s John ...read more

  • Lessons From The Sending Of The 72

     | 157 views

    When Jesus sends out the 72 disciples, He sends them with instructions that we can use as members of His Kingdom.

    Good Morning. Two weeks ago, we looked at one of the most frustrating passages of Scripture there is, you could say, from a “dad” point of view, when we looked at how the Corinthians treated St. Paul. Paul had been their founding pastor and spiritual father for 18 months before sailing on to ...read more

  • Ok God, What Do You Want From Me?

    Contributed on Sep 20, 2025
     | 257 views

    Religion can sometimes be seen as a system of laws or rules designed to please God, but that is not what God wants. God wants a loving relationship with His Children, and that we follow His commands because we Love Him! Micah 6 and Galatians 5 help us to see the difference between Love and Legalism.

    Good Morning. This morning, we have 2 excellent lessons intended to guide God’s people back on track from bad mindsets. Micah 6 begins in a heavenly courtroom. All of creation, the mountains and hills, are poetically called in as a jury to witnesses God’s case against His people. Israel has lost ...read more
