    Jesus Spoke With Authority

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Feb 7, 2022
     | 1,878 views

    The modern mind doesn't like to submit to authority, but if you don't recognize Jesus's authority, you don't recognize Jesus.

    Three weeks ago we left off of our series on the early ministry of Jesus as he was walking out of his home town, Nazareth, very much alone, having been violently rejected by the people of the synagogue where he grew up. What a tragic story. We don’t know that he ever went back. If you missed ...read more

    Devoted To Good Works

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Feb 7, 2022
     | 1,938 views

    If we follow Jesus, he will call us to service of others

    I am endlessly fascinated by Jesus Christ. I have been seriously studying the New Testament for more than 4 decades, and I am still coming to new appreciations of the life he lived. Over and over again, as I come to understand what we have written about him, I am stretched as I see how he ...read more

    A Broader Vision

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Feb 7, 2022
     | 2,046 views

    Our lives can get so cluttered with good things that we miss the best.

    Our text for this morning is Luke 4:38-44. “After leaving the synagogue Jesus entered Simon's house. Now Simon's mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever, and they asked him about her. Then he stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. Immediately she got up and began to ...read more

    How To Be Good And Mad

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Sep 11, 2019
     | 3,496 views

    Christians often try to avoid or deny anger because unrighteous anger can be so destructive. But there is a time and place and way to be angry in a constructive way.

    This morning I want to talk about finding freedom from anger, or to be precise, from destructive anger, not all anger. And our sermon text for this morning lays out a very simple outline of some really important guidance for us about anger. It is Ephesians 4:25-27. 26 Be angry but do not sin; do ...read more

    A Safe Place To Come Close

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Sep 11, 2019
     | 4,500 views

    Humility and gentleness are keys for creating a church fellowship where people feel safe to come close to one another.

    Last week we started with the dilemma of two porcupines on a very cold night, who needed to snuggle up close to each other to stay warm. But the closer they got the more they pricked each other with their quills, so they pulled apart. But the more they pulled apart, the colder they got. So it ...read more

    Bearing With One Another In Love

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Sep 11, 2019
     | 4,334 views

    All of us have needed to have people be patient with us when we were slow to grow and learn, working through a deep wound in our heart or just having a bad day. One of the best ways to help our churches and all their members is to learn to be patient with them, bearing with them in love.

    I don’t get to do it very often anymore, but I love fishing. I grew up near a muddy little lake where you could catch bullheads and bluegills almost any time you tried. But catching fish is only part of the joy. Two years ago we vacationed up in Minnesota. The first evening we went out to a ...read more

    Maintaining God's Unity

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Sep 11, 2019
     | 5,068 views

    When God's church is unified in love, wonderful power flows. But too often the flow is blocked. We need to learn to maintain the unity that God provides for us.

    We lived for 7 years up in Winthrop Harbor, the Cornerstone of Illinois. Our house was 6 blocks from the Wisconsin border and about 2 miles from the Lake Michigan shoreline. We were maybe 5 miles from the Zion Nuclear Plant. We had several good friends who worked there. This week I’ve been ...read more

    Be One! Be Different!

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Sep 11, 2019
     | 3,576 views

    No one is useless in the church. The Holy Spirit gives everyone some gifting that they can contribute. The church needs you.

    This is a bit embarrassing to say, but I have this thing about doing the Tribune’s crossword puzzle each day, and I couldn’t finish Saturday’s and it’s bugging me. Maybe you can help me out. Then I can focus on our sermon text. Can you help me for a minute? I got most of it already. This should ...read more

    The Stewardship Of The Gospel

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 31, 2019
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,301 views

    The understanding that the Apostle Paul had for God's calling on his life is instructive for the calling of every church.

    This morning I would like to start on a fairly major project. We are going to start a sermon series from the New Testament book of Ephesians. Its only 6 chapters long, but there is so much in it that it could easily take us 6 months to complete. I love the Bible, and to see the Bible's ...read more

    The Church: Exhibit A

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 31, 2019
     | 3,902 views

    The church often seems really clutzy, but the way that we live together and love one another is really important.

    Have you ever noticed that sometimes the church seems a bit lame? There never seems to be enough money. There always seems to be somebody fussing about some really petty thing, trying to make a mountain out of a molehill. Sometimes it seems to take forever to get everybody agreed and working ...read more

    Family Comes From The Heart Of God

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 31, 2019
     | 3,516 views

    It can be hard to understand what God is like, but Genesis tells us that we are created in God's image and we know that God is love. When we love our families and others, we experience something important of what God is like.

    Open your bulletins and look at the two Bible verses at the top of our worship liturgy for today, in the box that says, “Words to Ponder.” We have all heard those two verses many times before, but I want to be sure you understand some amazing things in them this morning. Could we read them ...read more

    Paul And Ephesus

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Jul 29, 2019
     | 2,693 views

    We hear Paul's letter to the Ephesians like we might overhear someone talking on the phone. We get only half of the conversation. If we are going to understand Paul's teaching we need to learn as much as possible about the circumstances of his readers.

    Years ago there was a farmer from a very small village in Germany who was just itching to get out and see something of the world. His big chance came when his nephew got a job on a barge that would sail up the Rhine River to Rotterdam. Even if it only stayed there for one day to drop off one ...read more

    God Chose You

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Jul 29, 2019
     | 6,769 views

    Some of us might have trouble believing that the big, eternal God would ever even notice little old me. But Paul, right from the start of his letter to the Ephesians, emphasized that God had chosen them to be his.

    This is our third Sunday now focusing on the book of Ephesians. At last we're getting around to starting at the beginning. We have already peaked at parts of chapter 2 and chapter 3 because of special themes for Epiphany and Human Relations Sunday. But now we get back to a more orderly ...read more

    You've Got A Lot Going For You, Part 1: God The Father

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Jul 29, 2019
     | 2,842 views

    Too many Christians feel inadequate to be any use to God or their church. Paul reminds the Ephesian Christians of the resources they have going for them.

    In any church you’ll find some members who sit on the sidelines, feeling like they don’t really belong on the team. They have heard a number of times that God loves them, but in their hearts, they wonder. They feel a little lonely at church, a little on the sidelines. And they’d like to get to ...read more

    You've Got A Lot Going For You, Part 2: The Trinity

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Jul 29, 2019
     | 1,770 views

    It can be confusing to talk about serving one God who is 3 persons. We may think we can just ignore abstract ideas like that. But this part of the nature of our God is one of the richest blessings of being a Christian

    Last week we started looking at the main body of Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. He starts out with a very high falutin statement of the glory of God, listing first, blessings we have received through God the Father, then through God the Son, then through God the Holy Spirit. Starting out like ...read more
