    Why do the people in Capernaum seek Jesus? What does the world seek? Why should we seek Jesus?

    What do we seek? Today’s Gospel is set in Capernaum on the day of the Sabbath. Jesus had a support base here with two Disciples, Simon Peter and his brother Andrew, calling this place home.

     | 11,994 views

    Should the word(s) luck, fortunate, or chance, be they good or bad, be included in a Christian's vocabulary? Or do the facts that God is all knowing and in sovereign control of our lives and of everything in our world negate their use entirely?

    The Ones “go” And The Ones Who Don’t “go”

    Some say they will obey God and don't, Others resist, then go. The Jews in Jesus day did not think they had to obey Jesus so they did not go to work in the vineyard. No serving when you should is a failure.

    The Ones “Go” and The Ones Who Don’t “Go” Kelly Durant Matthew 21:28 “But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, ‘Son, go, work today in my vineyard.’ 29 He answered and said, ‘I will not,’ but ...read more

    Putting To Death The Sins Of The Flesh

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Oct 10, 2024
     | 721 views

    We have no reason to say that we are caught in sin, because we don’t have to. That’s what it says. We are under no obligation to agree with the sinful nature when it wants to do something bad. Instead, the Spirit makes us free.

    We’ve been building a structure, and it’s based around what it means to be a follower of Jesus. We’ve talked about the fact that a Christian walks by faith, trusting in God and following God’s leading even when it seems odd or strange. We’ve talked about how a follower of Jesus seeks and ...read more

    There are moments when everything falls silent-a pause filled with anticipation. Revelation 8:1 reveals such a moment, inviting us to explore the profound meaning of the calm before the storm.
