Through the many years that I have preached and taught from the Word of God I have made one very disturbing observation about the churches in our ...read more

    Today, people are watching the movie, "Silence Of The Lambs" and today we will NOT keep silent about our Lamb (Of God)!

    We first see the story of Abraham and his son, Isaac, taking his son the son of promise to Mt. Moriah, that he was to sacrifice his son as a burnt offering to God. As they drew near to the time, Isaac asked the question, "Where is the lamb for the burnt offering?" And Abraham says, ...read more

    Take A Stand On Key Issues: Addiction, Abortion, & Marriage

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 2, 2021
     | 1,902 views

    The silence of the church on key issues of our day is deafening. By remaining silent on these issues, for fear of controversy, the church unilaterally makes itself irrelevant.

    The silence of the church on key issues of our day is deafening. By remaining silent on these issues, for fear of controversy, the church unilaterally makes itself irrelevant. When it's just a social club, or even a Christian fellowship of worship, well... something very important is missing. ...read more

    Faith Through Storms

     | 140 views

    Faith through storms means trusting the unseen Christ, whose presence anchors us when silence roars and waves threaten to overwhelm.

    The Wreck The November wind howled across Lake Superior like a living thing—cold, relentless, merciless. The kind of wind that makes grown men tighten their collars and check their ropes twice. It was November 10, 1975, when the Edmund Fitzgerald—a massive ore freighter, proud and trusted—faced ...read more

    God’s grace not only forgives sinners—it restores the wounded, heals hidden pain, and speaks life into every silence and shame.

    (2 Samuel 13 — Tamar, Daughter of David) Introduction – When Grace Walks into Silence Some stories in Scripture whisper rather than shout. Tamar’s story is one of them. No thunder, no miracle, no happy ending—just silence. And yet, within that silence, the heart of God beats louder than ...read more

    The mystery of the incarnation helps us to know: 1. God’s strength is in his apparent weakness. 2. Jesus understands the human condition. 3. God’s desire is to be with us.

    Forsaken?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 9, 2022
     | 1,202 views

    The psalm we sang today, the psalm He prayed on the cross as He gradually suffocated to death, begins with an apparent cry of despair: “God, why have you forsaken me?”

    Passion (Palm) Sunday In the four Gospels there are four slightly different accounts of the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus. St Mark’s is the briefest of them all. He records only one statement of Jesus. But what all four Evangelists agree on is this: Jesus died praying. He died as ...read more

    The cycle, which began in Egypt continued: • God does something great….. The people rejoice. • An apparent obstacle appears…. The people complain. • God does something great….. The people rejoice.

    March 08, 2025 Last week, we left Israel on the edge of the desert of Shur. They had just witnessed the power of God in the destruction of the Egyptian Army in the Red Sea and now the greatest adventure of their lives was about to begin.

    Mark shows that Jesus is the authority right at the start of his ministry: He heals at a word or a touch, he drives away and silences demons, He was the authority then, He is the authority now.

    based on 14 ratings
     | 19,604 views

    Jesus did not anoint the head of the disciples - he did not call for a bottle of Holy Oil - he did not ask them to get in a Prayer Line. This may not be apparent at first, but think about it - your feet carry a enormous load.

    TITLE: HOOKED ON A TITLE SCRIPTURE: ST. JOHN 13:1-17 In the earlier chapters Jesus had given His ministry to the people of GALILEE and JERUSALEM. In ths 13th Chapter and following Chapters, Jesus turns from an unbelieving world to minister the Father’s love to His INNER CIRCLE OF ...read more
