    It's amazing how quickly we settle for less that what is promised and possible. So what do we do with Jesus' outlandish promises about power for living?

    “Setting Troubled Hearts at Rest: Power for the Future” John 14:7-14 In one of Charles Schultz's ‘Peanuts’ cartoons Snoopy, the hound of heaven, says of Woodstock, that would-be bird of paradise, "Someday Woodstock is going to be a great eagle." Then in the next frame he ...read more

    The church needs to burn again. An Easter sermon

    And behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem. 14 And they were talking with each other about all these things which had taken place. 15 While they were talking and discussing, Jesus Himself approached and began traveling ...read more

    Ture wisdom only comes from God. And as we gain more wisdom our faith becomes stronger. We want to serve God and we have a desire to know Him. And the more we know Him, the more we love Him.

    I read once of a man who was lost in the desert, just dying for a drink of water. He stumbled upon an old shack – a ramshackled, windowless, roofless, weather beaten old shack. He looked around and found a little shade from the heat of the desert sun. As he glanced around he saw a pump about ...read more

    Does God still perform miracles? Of course He does. But what why does He? Is it to cause people to believe in Him? The sad fact is that most people who witness the miracles of God still refuse to believe—just like the people in today’s passage.

    http://brushforkbanner.blogspot.com/ This morning, we come to a new section in the Gospel of John. We have noticed before that John didn’t set out to record every single miracle of Jesus. As a matter of fact, in the last verse of the book, he wrote, “And there are also many other things which ...read more

    My life will on occasion have an orbit like Mercury that for a time simply defies my best efforts to explain it. Nonetheless as surely as there is order in the universe, there is a heavenly reason for my circumstances utterly consistent with God's Word an

    Matthew 28:16&17 The power of doubt Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted.

    How minute is much in the hands of Christ

    Matthew 14:16-21 In the Hands of Christ what might seem as minute to us in actually much. When Christ asks us to do something he will make away for us to accomplish it. When we are in the will of Christ he will bless us and provide for us beyond what we can imagine. Here we see that the disciples ...read more

    Maybe there was a time in your life when you were walking on water on a regular basis – a time when your heart was much like Peter’s: “command me. Tell me to come to you.” Or perhaps it’s been a while since you’ve got out of the boat – but the Lord is pa

    Is Jesus the Christ, the true Messiah, the promised Messiah of the Old Testament? Is Jesus Christ really the Savior of men, the one sent by God to save us and to give us life? If a person believes these witnesses, then he believes in God.

    Here’s one for you to think about. There was a preacher who worked hard on his sermon all week and then typed it up on Saturday night. During the night, his dog got into his office and, wouldn’t you know it, chewed his sermon up. He didn’t notice it until it was time to go to ...read more

    We consider how Jesus healed in biblical times and the many different ways that he heals us today.
