A Wedding To Remember!

Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Aug 11, 2012

Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding…Jesus should always be invited to the wedding and should be asked to stay for the marriage!

John 2:1-11-On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.” Jesus said to her, “Woman, ...read more

2nd Sunday after Epiphany 2018 Extraordinary Form It’s been almost thirteen years since Carolyn and I spent nearly two weeks in the Holy Land on pilgrimage, but many of the memories continue to enrich my study, prayer and preaching. The visit to Cana figures large in those recollections, and every ...read more

Aquarius: Pointing The Way

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 16, 2010

The anonymous water-carrier whom Jesus asked Peter and John to watch for is like a sure signpost because he was available for God's purpose, immune to ridicule, and credible.

Takoma Park Baptist Church, Washington, DC March 29, 1987 When you are lost and do not know the way, nothing is as reassuring as a timely and well-placed signpost. You are roiling down the highway and suddenly you come to a place where the sign says, "Road Closed Ahead - Detour". Aside from ...read more

Picture Of Jesus. (Hix)

Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Jun 11, 2011

We sometimes forget what a great God we serve and we need a refresher course in remembering who He is!

James Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 9, 2022

Even after more than two years of miracles, James is a skeptic. It would, after all, be rather hard to swallow the idea that the brother you had grown up with was the Son of God.

Jesus came from a big family. Matthew 13:55-56 names Jesus' brothers: James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas and mentions sisters (plural), so He had at least six siblings. James is consistently named first when Jesus' brothers are listed, which in his day likely meant that he was the eldest of ...read more

Jesus Christ: The Great Evangelist, Part 2

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 11, 2022

The Lord Jesus went out of His way to bring the Gospel to an anonymous woman. Her life was one of sin and isolation from others. Despite her attitude and resistance, she was won over to the grace and mercy of God. We are to follow His example.

No one is to be neglected or avoided when it comes to presenting the Good News of salvation found only in the Lord Jesus Christ (John 14:6; Acts 4:12; 1 John 2:1-2). As we read through the fourth chapter of John's Gospel, we see how Jesus went out of HIs way to give this offer of redemption ...read more

Will You Take God Up On His Test? (Exodus 15:22-27) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 21, 2022

If you're actually/fully obeying God, will He heal you?

I apparently needed a break from Exodus, which I didn't expect (did Psalm 9-12). But I'm learning to not fight it, and just go with it. [And I'm hoping this is the Spirit leading me, somehow]. This week, I felt like I was maybe ready to try Exodus again. Let's start by ...read more

Our Everlasting Fountain Of Youth

Contributed by Rev. Duraimony Dickson on Nov 6, 2020

The real fountain of youth is the living Word and water, which comes from our Savior Jesus Christ. And through its waters, we reap the benefits of our sufferings and sacrifices for the Lord. We will be free of all pains, age, and corruption when we enter into the kingdom of God.

Our Everlasting Fountain of Youth Romans 8:18-25 The fountain of youth has been told in stories since medieval times.

A PLEADING. Jeremiah 2:4-13. In this passage the LORD yet again makes His complaint against the whole house of Israel (Jeremiah 2:4). As we read it, we begin to realise that this is also His indictment against the whole of mankind, and against the visible Church in particular. “What ...read more
