    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 30, 2023
     | 1,858 views

    The reasons for grief are many, such as the loss of a loved one, the loss of health, or the letting go of a long-held dream. Dealing with a significant loss can be one of the most difficult times in a person's life. Jesus sees God’s dream for Jerusalem slipping away.

    Sermon: What Jesus’ Grief over Jerusalem Reveals Matthew 23:37 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones God’s messengers! How often I have wanted to gather your children together as a hen protects her chicks beneath her wings, but you wouldn’t let me. 38 And now, look, ...read more

    Jesus Before Pilate Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Apr 3, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,685 views

    The trials on Jesus’ last earthly day picture the religious & political world’s rejection of Jesus & His claims. He came unto His own and they did not receive Him. Sin’s blindness leads to Jesus’ dying because of who He is, God in human flesh.

    LUKE 23: 1–5-7 JESUS BEFORE PILATE [JESUS’ LAST DAY SERIES] [Mark 15:1–5; Mt. 5:10-12] Jesus’ last day begins with Him being rejected and condemned by the Jewish ruling counsel and then being hauled before Pilate.

     | 1,389 views

    David and Jesus were both zealots for God's house. What did that look like in practice for David? And are WE willing to be zealots for God's house?

    INTRODUCTION Earlier in today’s service I showed the video, ‘David the worshipper’ [Angel Studios]. I’ve really liked all the videos in this series but I especially liked this one.

     | 1,352 views

    Did you know, the Bible truly is full of amazing, and exciting stories? There're stories of giants, there are stories about spies, stories of huge whales, of ships and of shipwrecks, huge dragon-like beasts, and so many other incredible things we can read in the pages of God's Word.

    The story we're going to read from the Bible today has exciting parts in it, there are spies, there are giants in this story. But sadly, in this story we're going to see how something that could have been so incredible for God’s people turned out to be something very tragic because of their ...read more

    Desperate For Jesus

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 1,992 views

    I believe that there really is such a place for that kind of desperation in our lives today. However, most important is the discernment of what it is that we want for ourselves.
