    Back To The Basics - Discipling Series

    Contributed by Mark Engler on Sep 28, 2017
     | 8,115 views

    Discipling is a process over time that involves many different people, many different settings and situations. And discipling generally begins in small groups and moves to the larger groups. Sometimes as small of groups as two people as it did with me.

    Back to the Basics - Discipling ME As I sat down at my computer this week with thoughts of Discipling on my mind I could not help but think about my own. My own journey and the discipling of received as I become a Christian and after. When I was growing up my dad tried to be a good role model ...read more

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 18, 2025
     | 360 views

    Matthew 10 begins with the names of the twelve ordinary men whom Jesus chose to be His disciples. We start with Simon Peter.

    In this chapter, we are introduced to the twelve men who will carry out the message of Jesus to the nation of Israel and inevitably to the world. None of them were scholars or religious officials. They were twelve ordinary men, some of whom were fishermen by trade and probably knew each other ...read more

    The Ascension of Christ

    I’ll Be Back Acts 1:9-15 Good morning, When we think about famous promises from people who said they would return as they were leaving, what comes to mind? General Douglas MacArthur pledged during World War II… "I Shall Return" as he was leaving the Philippines. One promise to ...read more

    #1 Filled With Power Series

    Contributed by Robert Malcolm on Jan 8, 2025
     | 715 views

    I think, as followers of Jesus, just like the first disciple, we find ourselves wondering why God would leave us all alone … abandoned. But we are never really along … God has surrounded us with His family, the church and given us a great promised gift.

    ~ Intro: What do you do when you feel abandoned and alone. When I was 6 or 7 I was fishing with my father up in the mountains. It was beautiful, good fishing but dangerous because the country where we lives was in the middle of a revolutionary war and the area we were in was known to have rebels ...read more

    Heavenly Minded Series

     | 3,069 views

    Why would the angels prompt the followers of Jesus to stop watching the sky for Jesus? Was it wrong for them to want Jesus to return? Or is there something else we need to see here?

    Years ago, a famous Supreme Court Justice named Oliver Wendall Holmes said: “Some people are so heavenly minded, that they are no earthly good.” Now, I’m not exactly sure why he said that, but it has been true in the past. ILLUS: In 1823, there was a Baptist minister by the name of William ...read more

    Why Did Jesus Have To Return To Heaven?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 28, 2025
     | 402 views

    Couldn’t Jesus have stayed on earth and God would have done all that?

    Ascension Thoughts 2025 Why did Jesus ascend into heaven? Wouldn’t it be better if He remained here on earth. And, besides, Matthew records that He said “Behold, I am with you always, even until the end of days.” We know that when the Church celebrates the Ascension, forty days after Easter, we ...read more

    Solemnity Of The Ascension Of The Lord: Under His Feet

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 27, 2025
     | 230 views

    To rise, ascend up, into the next level living, seated with Christ, rising to a place of trust to take dominion over what troubles us; over all limitations.

    Christ's winning hand is His death and resurrection, but I have a fellow diocesan priest friend who likes to remind others that it’s not just Jesus’ death and resurrection but his Ascension too, which completes the paschal mystery. The Paschal Mystery in Christianity is from the Hebrew ...read more

    Solemnity of the Ascension 2025 Today we are gifted by God with readings centering on promises and partings. We affirm it every weekend: “He ascended into heaven” and ”sits on the right hand of God the Father Almighty.” The Gospels are not entirely clear, but the tradition of the Church for two ...read more

    Today, on Ascension Sunday, we stand with the disciples, our eyes lifted toward the sky, peering into the clouds where Christ was last seen.

    “This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.” — Acts 1:11b, NKJV Today, on Ascension Sunday, we stand with the disciples, our eyes lifted toward the sky, peering into the clouds where Christ was last seen.

    Why The Ascension Is Important

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jun 2, 2025
     | 184 views

    This morning, we look at why the Ascension is so important that Jesus, who is God and Man, sits at the Right Hand of God the Father Almighty, and is not here with us today.

    Good Morning. When I took some Psychology classes at UMBC, I could get extra credit for signing up for experiments. There’s one experiment where students stand in the quad and stare up at the sky and point … and without fail, lots of other people gather round to look up at the sky and try to work ...read more

    When we feel insecure, we back off from situations. But when the Holy Spirit comes, there is passion, there is witness.

    Is everybody cool? Is everybody cool? I am not referring to the temperature in the building, but to the climate in your soul! Are you cool? “Cool” is an all-purpose word, used to describe a certain attitude. Instead of defining it, let me illustrate it. I was attending a repast at a family ...read more
