    Labor Of Love

     | 1,322 views

    Whenever and wherever we are doing God’s work, we are on holy ground. Wherever we find ourselves, we can make it holy by being God’s representative in that place.

    I know this isn’t Labor Day weekend. But it’s too important a topic to skip. It’s big in the news these days, what with unemployment still above 6%. We all know people who are looking for work - and have been for more than 6 months. But hey - work isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, right? How many ...read more

    "To Be Loved”

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on May 11, 2023
     | 1,619 views

    We need love. Love is an emotional bond that makes us feel safe, understood, and valued. That is what our mothers have done for us. It is what God has done for us through Jesus. If we keep, if we practice the teachings of Jesus it demonstrates our love for Him.

    In Jesus Holy Name May 14, 2023 Text: John 14:15 Easter VI Redeemer “To Be Loved” Last Sunday I suggested that as we read chapters 13-17 in John we should try imagine ourselves in the Upper Room ...read more

    The Unity Of Love

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 13, 2023
     | 2,173 views

    Paul's desire was that the Church would be unified, but what does that look like? We live in a time when the church seems fragmented and divided, and that is affecting who we reach and don't reach people.

    The Unity of Love If nothing else, you need to love the sixties and seventies for their awesome sense of style. The band was “The Brotherhood of Man,” the year was 1970, and the message of the song was spelled out in its title “United we stand, divided we fall.” Interesting tidbit about the ...read more

    Ladies, do you remember when your husband asked for your hand in marriage; the day you became engaged? You either were scared or excited; most likely filled with joy and gladness.

    Ladies, do you remember when your husband asked for your hand in marriage; the day you became engaged? You either were scared or excited; filled with joy and gladness.

    To be on the mission of mercy is to love being merciful. Some key ideas that come to mind when I think about this...

    THE MISSION OF MERCY Introduction Back in March I sent an email to our elders that has remained on my mind ever since.

    No Greater Love! Series

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Jul 13, 2023
     | 1,876 views

    Jesus’ love wasn’t empty words. His love was manifested as he stood silent before His mockers and accusers, by every cruel lash He took for us, by every step He took on the road to Calvary, by each nail driven into his body. This should have been us.

    Every sermon we preach, no matter what time of year it is, points to the Person of Jesus Christ because He is the Cornerstone of our faith. Christ’s incarnation - was when God, the Creator of the earth and of every living creature and of the entire universe was born on the earth as a man. Christ’s ...read more

     | 2,738 views

    Matthew 5:43–48 continues Jesus' teaching on love and humility, a part of the Sermon on the Mount. After commanding believers not to seek revenge in the face of insults, Jesus expands the idea of love to include one's enemies.

    Sermon on the Mount - Matthew 5:43-48 (Loving Enemies) MATTHEW 5:43-48 43 You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven.

    You could get hundreds of answers to this question. The true answer is found in God. God so loved the world.

    The greatest love ever expressed was the love shown to a Christ denying world when Christ died upon the cross for the sins of all mankind. Love was manifest at Calvary. Many Christian people are not really sure God loves them, even after he has saved us. Sometimes because of the trying ...read more

     | 1,753 views

    The mutual glorification of the Son of man and of God. The love of Jesus as a model for our love for one another.

    GLORIFICATION AND LOVE. John 13:31-35. The inevitable process which would culminate in the self-sacrifice of Jesus on our behalf was reaching its climax. Jesus spoke of the reciprocal “glorification” of both “God” and “the Son of man” (John 13:31-32). In this we have the “glory” of the Cross ...read more
