Look Who's Coming To Dinner

Contributed by David Watters on Sep 5, 2006

We sometimes read the Scriptures at its surface level. It isn’t until we dig in and study that we find the riches hidden there. The Scripture where the Parisee invites Jesus to a Sabbath meal is rich in wisdom if we just search for it.

Sermon: Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner Scripture: Luke 14: 1-14 Good morning… Once there was a dinner speaker who was in such a hurry to get to his engagement that when he arrived and sat down at the head table, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten his false teeth.

Who Are You Looking For? Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Feb 20, 2021

Jesus loved to ask questions (the Gospels list at least 135 of his questions). The most powerful question Jesus asked in this text was "Who are you looking for?" Who they were looking for tells us a lot about the people in this story.

About 10 years ago, there was a sight-seeing tour in Iceland that lost one of its sightseers. She was no where to be found. Panicked, they called in the police and the search began.

Looking For Hope In A New Year Series

Contributed by Chuck Moore on Jan 6, 2024

The New Year is often faced with anxiety and fear. Inflation, world conflicts, political unrest....the list goes on and on. So, where do we turn for real hope?

An exposition of the two primary texts from which the doctrine of the rapture is drawn, distinguishing what the Bible actually says from common ideas.
