    Following Jesus: Love Your Enemies Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Aug 6, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,479 views

    It is the most unnatural thing in the world to love someone who has hurt you - someone who is an enemy in some respect - but that is what Jesus calls us to in our text.

    Following Jesus: Love Your Enemies Luke 6:27-35 Introduction Following Jesus requires us to accept his invitation and to hear his teachings and ways. But not just to hear - to act. Many of the teachings of Jesus are uncomfortable and feel unnatural - He is calling us to live the Jesus life. ...read more

    Jesus: How To Be A Follower In Times Of Despair Series

    Fourth in the series "Meet the Cast." As you study Jesus’ life you realize that even though He did not lay aside his deity, He did humble himself as a man, to serve all humanity. So Jesus understands what we are facing in our lives.

    I love the way “The Passion of The Christ” movie begins, with the reminder that 400 years before Jesus was born his sacrifice was foretold in a vivid way. Isaiah 53:5 (LB) But he was wounded and bruised for our sins. He was beaten that we might have peace; he was lashed--and we were healed! ...read more

    How Does A Christ-Follower Respond? Series

    As believers, we are called to have a common purpose in everything we do. The Disciples understood the importance of working together by following a unified vision, and we must do the same to bring others into a life of freedom through Jesus Christ.

    How Does a Christ-Follower Respond? Acts 16:1-12 Introduction The Christian brothers and sisters at Antioch had good reason to rejoice -- They had been at the center of a great controversy; and stood firm in it -- The controversy? Answering, “What must we do to be saved?” The ...read more

    Follow Jesus--Not Your Feelings Series

     | 14,487 views

    Are you a little proud you attend church? Do you feel a little superior to those folks who sleep in or are out on the lake? There is no room for spiritual pride in grace, because in grace, it’s all about boasting in God not in our goodness.

    INTRODUCTION If you were around in 1975 you might remember the one-hit wonder “Feelings,” by Morris Albert “Feelings, nothing more than feelings; / Trying to forget my feelings of love; / Feelings, whoa, whoa, whoa feelings…” This is the sappiest song I’ve ever heard. It was never was one of my ...read more

    Which Jesus Do You Follow? Series

     | 649 views

    There's only one true Jesus, but there are many false concepts of Jesus whom people follow. Do you follow a religious Jesus who requires rituals and works for salvation. Then, think again.

    As we mentioned in our bulletin this morning, we begin a new series of messages today entitled "Meet the Real Jesus?' And I'm going to begin this morning by asking each of you here, "Which Jesus do you follow?" Now, yes, I'm anticipating some questions or comments which ...read more

    When we fail, when we deny, when we fall short, Jesus will still prepare for us a table in the midst of our enemies.

    Following the Shepherd Psalms 23 Ps 23… The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. 3 He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of ...read more

    It has gotten to the point that the terms “terrorism” and “Islam” may be viewed as synonymous because of the actions of al Qaeda. Are they interpreting the Qur'an correctly?

    The media has portrayed a telling picture of the perpetrators of 9/11: a picture of violence and hatred toward America. They have been portrayed as “the main enemy of the West and […] as a hotbed of terrorism that threatens Western civilization and its democratic values” (Khan n. ...read more

    Jesus is reaching out to this generation calling them to follow Him. He wants to pour Himself into them to make authentic reproductions of Himself. His call supersedes all other earthly responsibilities. Do we have enough of Jesus to reproduce Him?

    JESUS' CALL TO FOLLOW HIM Mk. 1:14-20 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Career planning 1.

    Marriage And The Jesus Follower - Perfecting Intimacy Series

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Jul 17, 2013
     | 3,212 views

    Desiring God leads to raised awareness of who He is and a raised awareness of who God is leads to reshaped priorities that fit His, and reshaped priorities that fit His condition us to recognize that God is enough and when we recognize God is enough we become completely dependent on Him.

    Hebrews 13:4 "Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage. God will surely judge people who are immoral and those who commit adultery." Our goal as followers including those of us who are married is to remain faithful. We started the series on Marriage and the Jesus ...read more
