    In the Gospels, something amazing happens as Jesus heals a blind man on the way to Jerusalem. This morning we look at this amazing sign, and what the sign is pointing to.

    Good Morning. In our Gospel Lesson, we begin Jesus final approach to Jerusalem, which sets us up for Lent, beginning Wednesday, which is Ash Wednesday. For this morning, our focus is not just the miracle healing of Bartimaeus, but the question Jesus asked Bartimaeus after calling him forward, “What ...read more

  • The Paradox Of Weakness

    Contributed on Feb 22, 2025
     | 167 views

    This morning we looked at St. Paul's teaching about Weakness, and the Paradox of the fact that the weaker he was, and of course, the weaker we are, the greater we can see God as He uses us as a painter uses a canvas.

    Good morning. We read from Paul, If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness. I hope to show you this morning, as we look at Paul’s message to the Corinthians, that these might just be some of the most comforting words that you can find in the Bible. I’m thankful for these ...read more

    Habakkuk is a heartbroken prophet who has seen God's Plans and sits confused and in tears. Join us as we dig into Habakkuk 1, as Habakkuk learns to Trust God's Process of Sanctification of His People.

    Good Morning. This morning we are looking at the frustrations we may have with the world around us, but Trusting God’s Process as we minister in this world. There is a tendency to place figures in the Bible on a pedestal, just because they are in the Bible. But the Bible records truth, and other ...read more

  • Jeremiah And Rejection

    Contributed on Feb 1, 2025
     | 160 views

    Jeremiah in Chapter 18 seeks God's wrath on those who won't listen to his prophecy. While his frustration is understandable, it helps us to remember our mission to bring redemption, not destruction.

    Good Morning. Before I say anything else, picture a prophet in your head. Not the money kind, the Bible one. People have lots of ideas about what the life of a prophet would be like, but one thing that might surprise you is that the main job of a prophet wasn’t telling people the future, any more ...read more
