    In Jesus’ encounter with the Greek seekers, we see the Nature of the Savior, The Nature of Suffering and the Nature of the Servant.

    20Now there were certain Greeks among those who came up to worship at the feast. * These are believed to be Jews living in Greece, visiting Jerusalem for the Passover Feast. * Philip is a Greek name.

     | 4,272 views

    As Christians we are chosen by God to join others in a church community where we find belonging, significance, love, and where we serve one another. A church is not about catering to our own individual needs and wants.

We are special – we, the people of God called Laurier Heights Baptist Church are special. As true as the statement is, it is problematic. We hear “special”, and think ...read more

    A Meditation On The Parable Of The Prodigal Son

    Contributed by Dan Funk on Aug 23, 2014

     | 10,570 views

    I believe Jesus is drawing our attention to the father and his compassion and joy in order to give us a a deeper understanding of the nature of God and His Kingdom; of our calling to be instruments of His life-giving compassion, and to share in His joy.

    We heard in today’s Gospel reading the Parable of the Prodigal Son, and I am sure most of us have read and heard it numerous times. And we all perhaps have lost count of the sermons we have heard on this parable. You may be wondering what on earth I can say on this that is new or unique. I ...read more

     | 11,986 views

    When we commit ourselves to God, we remove all hindrances. This is what the Pharisees couldn't do because they were only committed to themselves. If we do not want to be modern day Pharisees, we've got to be willing to devote ourselves to Jesus!

    Jesus’ Authority is Questioned Mark 11:18-33 - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” - Jesus’ teachings, while difficult for some to deal with, are always timely -- God always allows us to hear from Him at just the right time - Before we begin ...read more

    Lessons From The Sheep Pen

     | 6,554 views

    The Bible compares us to sheep. We all tend to wander and need a Shepherd. As sheep in God's pasture, choose well who you listen to and follow. The Good Shepherd leads us faithfully, firmly, yet lovingly.

    Lessons from the Sheep Pen Intro: [Play youtube clip of crazy sheep sounds] -Yes, the Bible really does compare us to sheep. But as crazy as what you’ve just heard sounds, it is nothing compared to the craziness that comes from people, whether out of their mouths or out of their lives. 1. ...read more

    What Is Reality? Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 20, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,681 views

    We often rely on our senses and even our emotions to tell us what’s real. Paul, as he begins the letter to the Ephesians, tells of a reality more real than you have ever known, with advantages far greater than anything this age has to offer, all in Jesus.

    If I asked you the question: “how do you know something is real?” you might say something like: “It’s real if I can experience it with my senses.” Our idea of the “realness” of something is tied to what our brains tell us based on the information gathered ...read more
