    People have to be clean before entering the presence of God, and only Jesus can do the job.

    This is taking forever, isn’t it... preaching through the book of Revelation. It doesn’t have the familiar comfort of the gospel stories, or the practical theology of Paul’s letters, or the colorful stories of the Old Testament heroes. It’s just one clashing, disturbing ...read more

    Do you feel comfortable sitting on the sidelines not taking a stand not stating an opinion? Have you given in to the pressure of todays society and found yourself like Gideon fallen away from God? Have you decided its better to hide than fight for what

    Giddy Up Gideon In todays scripture passages we see two very different reactions by two different men who decide to follow God. Let us look at the Old Testament account of Gideon.

    The first in a series of messages centered around the "Go" sayings of Jesus.

    Today we start a brand new series that is extremely timely for us as a church and I suspect for many of us as individuals. The series is simply entitled “Go.” And even though “go” in both the original languages of Hebrew and Greek means “go” I think it is ...read more

    In Luke Chapter 15 Jesus paints us a vivid picture of the Love of God through the story of the Prodigal Son. How can we celebrate God’s party of love in such a way as to welcome not only the younger brothers who have come back from the dead, but also the

    Luke 15:1-3, 11-32 “Looking Up at Hell” By: Ken Sauer, Pastor of East Ridge United Methodist Church, Chattanooga, TN “There was a man who had two sons.” One—the youngest—comes to his father and demands his share of the inheritance.

    Do we equate the things we love about our Churches with the authority of Scripture? You bet we do.

    What is the most authoritative part of the Bible? Is the New Testament the most authoritative part of the Bible? The New Testament is the New Covenant that Jesus Christ gave to us, that sure is a powerful thing. Could the Gospels be the most authoritative part of the Bible, because they are about ...read more
