    We are in a spiritual conflict. It is not a new conflict, but for some of us, it is new. The bad news is that this conflict will continue to intensify until the time of Great Tribulation- it will get worse and worse. The good news is- we are going to wi

    This sermon explores the need to follow God’s lead and not worry about what others think. I do this through the lense of Simon Peter. It also encoureges people to share their faith in a simple manner in their everyday life.

    Simon Peter poked the last bite of fish into his mouth; these were miracle fish, provided by the Master Himself. His mind seemed to whirling trying to process the events of the past couple of weeks. It started with the triumphal entry. Peter had thrilled that everyone seemed to be ready to finally ...read more

    We have two choices to choose from - God’s way or the alternative. Which pill will you swallow?

    DVD – Matrix – scene where Neo has to choose the blue pill or the red pill… God calls us everyday to make a choice – for him or for the alternative.

    We often pretend to be someone that we’re not, but probably someone we would really like to be.

    The Great Pretender Mt. 27:1-5 03/26/06 You are all familiar with the 1956 song by the Platters ‘The Great Pretender’ with the lyrics, “Oh yes, I’m the great pretender, pretending that I’m doing well; My need is such, I pretend too much; I’m lonely but no one can tell.” I’m sure that this song ...read more

    Jesus taught, Jesus preached Good News, and Jesus demonstrated the compassion of God. We are called to represent him by doing the same.

    Jesus is now being followed by Peter, Andrew, James and John. They have all left their fishing nets (Matthew 4:20) to follow Jesus; and James and John have left their Father Zebedee to follow Jesus (Matthew 4:22).

    The week after the Crucifixion and Resurrection of our Lord, Jesus was a time that the Disciples were struggling to find their continued purpose. Having breakfast with Jesus can be very enlightening to us today.

    "Why John Did Outrun Peter"

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Apr 11, 2005

     | 9,077 views

    When John was running, the text indicates he was running with the mindset of “He loves me, he loves me, he loves me.”

    Title of the Message: “Why John outran Peter?” John records that he outran Peter to the empty tomb? This message is speculation, but I believe that the trues are very acurate. In context John records that he is, “The disciple whom Jesus loved.” When Peter was running to the tomb, no ...read more
