  • Foot Washing

     | 2,082 views

    One of the lowest things that a person could do in NT times was to wash feet. Jewish slaves were not allowed, only Gentile slaves. Jesus shares an important lesson for us all.

    I want you to imagine for just a few minutes, you’re in a little upper room lighted only by candlelight in the city of Jerusalem, and the time is some 2000 years ago. Into that room came 13 men.

     | 137 views

    God chose a stable, not a palace, to teach us that humility is the language of heaven. Christmas is not about elevation through status but transformation through surrender. The stable reminds us that God meets us where we are, not where we pretend to be

    GOD CHOSE A STABLE, NOT A PALACE What Christmas Teaches Us About God’s Preference for Humility Over Status INTRODUCTION One of the most striking truths about the Christmas story is not what God did, but how He chose to do it.

    Jesus helps us to see that His followers should be marked by humility, faith, and devotion.

    What is a good Christian like? Is it someone who doesn’t as the saying goes “drink or smoke or cuss or chew or date/marry people who do”? Is it someone who faithfully attends church? Is it someone who waits until marriage to engage in sexual activity? Is it someone who is morally upright? Is ...read more

    Contributed by Ryan Ferwerda on Sep 21, 2025
     | 104 views

    Imagine being a level-headed person caught between two hot heads that, left to themselves, would destroy each other and everyone around them. This was Abigail, an Unsung Hero of the Bible, whose story we find in 1 Samuel 25.

    What is a hero? Over the last two weeks we have explored stories of ordinary people that undertook extraordinary tasks that ended up having huge impacts on the people of God in their time.

     | 351 views

    Jesus pictures the kingdom as a banquet—an invitation to joy. In Luke 14:7–24 He confronts pride, exposes excuses, and calls for a humble, wholehearted response to His invitation—today, not “someday.”

    The next couple of weeks we're going to be spending time in Luke 14, in a mini-series called "Come to the Table." I named the series this because - don't you just love invitations to eat? At first I thought that "Let's Eat" may have been a better title for this ...read more

    True greatness in God’s Kingdom is found in humility and serving others.

    Introduction – Rethinking Greatness Good morning, church. Let me ask you something: When you hear the word “greatness,” what comes to mind?

     | 99 views

    Walk through a royal palace and you’ll find polished marble, priceless art, golden thrones — and in the corner, if the light is just right, the shimmer of a web.

     | 242 views

    True acceptance with God comes not from self-righteousness or comparison, but from humble confession and receiving the mercy and love found in Jesus Christ.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile on our face and a scoreboard in our heart. You know the scoreboard I mean—the quiet tally of how we’re doing compared to others, the inner itch to be seen as enough, the nervous need to be noticed and approved.

    We revisit Babel when we place other things before God, seek other ways to God and trust in our own ambitions

    BABEL REVISITED TEXT: GENESIS 10:8-11, 11:1-9 INTRODUCTION: Words are powerful. Words can be negative. They can kill, maim, abuse, and ridicule.
