    This is the "Total Depravity" sermon without using the stock theological labels. It is the first sermon in the series and it's covert because too many of our listens will shut down their receptors when they hear the words "Calvinism."

    Last week we listened to a story, a parable, that Jesus told about a Pharisee and a tax collector. Here is what he said: “To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable: 10 "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a ...read more

    I believe that there are people who will be surprised at many things. People will someday stand before the judgment of God & express surprise that they are lost.

     | 5,135 views

    This message looks at 3 different times that Jesus commended people for what they gave.

    Everyone enjoys being recognized for the good they have accomplished even if they do the “No really, you don’t have to” thing. They enjoy being thanked and acknowledged for what they’ve done, maybe not publically but people want to know they have made a difference in their world. The scripture ...read more

    As we look at Matthew 2 and the people known as the Magi, three phrases caught my attention this year as I was reading the Christmas story. "King of the Jews" "Overjoyed" "Presented Him with Gifts"

    CHRISTMAS FOCUS IN MATTHEW: MAGI MATTHEW 2:1-12 READ Matthew 2:1-12 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem 2 and asked, "Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews?

    Christianity is not something that can be chosen from a buffet of religious options… It's a realization that we're guilty… It's a relationship forged in repentance... It's a life of loving service & obedience to the One whose mercy & grace set us free.

    CORE MESSAGE: Christianity is not something that can be chosen from a buffet of religious options… It is a realization that we are guilty and full of shame before a holy, righteous God… It is a relationship that is forged out of our abject humility as we lay prostrate before God in repentance... It ...read more

    Don’t waste your life in secret, cheap acts designed to get the praise of people. Instead, give it all away in exposed, expensive, extravagant acts of devotion to our Lord, because that is what worship is all about.

    An old farmer went to the city one weekend and attended the big city church. He came home and his wife asked him how it was. “Well,” said the farmer, “It was good. They did something different, however. They sang praise choruses instead of hymns.” “Praise choruses,” said his wife, “What are ...read more

     | 6,443 views

    In this lesson, we learn about the wonder of forgiveness, what it feels like to be forgiven, and witness the forgiveness of the sinful woman in Luke 7.

    A. Once there was a man who carried a secret burden of a long-past sin in his heart. 1. No one knew what he had done, but he had repented and asked God for forgiveness. 2. In spite of this, he had lived with years of remorse over the incident without any sense of God’s forgiveness. 3. One day he ...read more

    In Mark 14, Mark places the themes of love and hate alongside each other to create a sharp contrast. The hatred of the Jewish leaders, is followed by Mary’s loving act, which is followed by Judas’ betrayal. These stories challenge us to examine our feelings and actions toward Jesus.

    Introduction A. I heard the true story of a woman who took a number of children to see a movie. 1. Before going into the seating area, they stopped at the concession stand and the woman offered to buy popcorn for the children to share. 2. One of the children objected declaring, “I hate ...read more
