    The Road To Emmaus

    What did the two men on the road to Emmaus think about the resurrection? They had the opportunity to meet the risen Christ. Is it not interesting that Luke has two unknown men meet the risen Christ first?

    The Road to Emmaus Luke 24:13-35 Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Luke 24:13 And behold, atwo of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was 1about seven miles from Jerusalem. 14 And they were talking with each other about all these things which had taken place. 15 While they ...read more

    Using the illustration of Exit Glacier in Seward Alaska, examining the reason why Jesus said to Mary, “Don’t cling to me”?

    I. INTRODUCTION A. Stop Clinging? – Why??? 1. Why forbidden? a. nature so new, fresh - could be defiled easily? b. nature so new, fresh - would zap her dead (fly zapper) 2. Clue is in the nature of her clinging a. Greek = “fastened to, hold tight, adhere to, she wouldn’t let go” b. Jesus didn’t ...read more

    For Ascension Sunday; and in preparation for my retirement as pastor. What stands in our way? Exhaustion? Gather all, gather the marginalized, and pray. Planless? Remember our core values and do them. Lack of urgency? We are accountable to God.

    When a leader and those he leads part company, we learn a whole lot about both of them. Their true values become apparent. The things they are really about become clear. There is no more game-playing when it is time for a leader and those he leads to part company. Sometimes they separate ...read more

    "he Ascended Into Heaven"

     | 3,141 views

    Of all the aspects of Christ’s life, his birth, life, death and resurrection, the ascension gets little attention. This is unfortunate because it is something of the ‘Ticker-tape’ parade in God’s plan and yet few show up to applaud.

    If you are a sports fan you love the game. You follow your team through the season, whether baseball or football, through the hard fought wins and crushing defeats. The excitement increase should your team make the playoffs. Each game now carries greater importance. In fact, in football loose and ...read more

     | 228 views

    To rise, ascend up, into the next level living, seated with Christ, rising to a place of trust to take dominion over what troubles us; over all limitations.

    Christ's winning hand is His death and resurrection, but I have a fellow diocesan priest friend who likes to remind others that it’s not just Jesus’ death and resurrection but his Ascension too, which completes the paschal mystery. The Paschal Mystery in Christianity is from the Hebrew ...read more

    A sermon that attempts to interpret the ascension of Jesus for the believer today.

    Taken up before their very eyes Acts Chapter 1: 1 - 12 I once knew a man whose family had been very successful in business. One of the principles that he had learned had been – buy in bulk.
