Lent 2013 Week 3 Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 6, 2013

God, in His gracious mercy, gives us warnings of the need for repentance. In this case He does it through His Son, Jesus, using two accounts of untimely death and applying them to the reality of eternity which we all face.

This is the third week of the Lenten season and in the Scripture we are about to look at we see how Jesus responded when He was confronted with the news of some untimely deaths. Some died at the hands of an evil man and others died because of a construction accident. Now, you may have noticed on ...read more

Let’s Go To Bethlehem!

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Dec 25, 2023

Although Luke’s account of the shepherds going to see baby Jesus is filled with familiar details, the thread that ties the whole thing together is what the shepherds were told about the child. We hear that connection three times in these verses.

“Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” Those words spoken by the shepherds on the first Christmas Eve are familiar to us. An angel of the Lord had brought them “good news that will cause great joy for all the people.” And the angel told ...read more

New Wine, Old Wineskins Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jan 31, 2022

The Pharisees were hopping mad that Jesus and his disciples were living it up feasting, celebrating and having a good old time. Why were Jesus disciples feasting and not fasting? As usual Jesus not only answered their question, but gave them a deeply profound theological answer.

There is an old television commercial that I still remember, and I still snicker when I think about it. The commercial is in black and white. A somber old man in a cold grey stone building barks out these words; Tenacity! Gumption! Discipline! Suddenly there is color, party music and they switch ...read more

Led By The Spirit ... To Be Tempted?

Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 22, 2017

Jesus was led into the wilderness to be tempted. The Word is precise in stating that He was led by the Spirit. Why does the Spirit of God lead anyone to be tempted?

And the tempter came and said to him, ‘If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.’ But he answered, ‘It is written, ...read more
