    Our Lord Jesus Christ wasn't afraid of those who were the “cast off” of society; the sinners, the lepers, the Samaritans, and neither should we.

    The Samaritan Appointment John 4:1-26 As I’m sure you all know, during Biblical times, the Jews and the Samaritans were locked in a bitter rivalry, but in case you didn’t know, it partially began back when the Kingdom was torn apart—when it became a divided kingdom after Solomon's death and ...read more

    Jesus says we are not of this world, this secular society, and so those who hear us and see us will at first despise us and everything we do and say.

    Saturday of the Fifth Week in Easter 2024 Today’s Scriptures give one of the best examples of stating a principle of evangelization in the Gospel and giving an example of application in the reading from the Acts of the Apostles. Jesus had given his farewell sermon and prayers during the Last ...read more

    Why did Jesus choose to touch a leper, considered unclean and untouchable by society? This sermon explores the significance of this act and what we can learn from it.

    Why did Jesus touch a leper? Lepers were considered "untouchable" and outcasts from society. But Jesus chose to touch this man. Why? And what can we learn from His actions? Let's start with a trivia question: What is the largest organ in your body? If you're an average adult, your skin covers about ...read more

    We are always trying to blame our sin on something else - on someone else, on society, on circumstances. But Jesus says that what makes us sin is part of ourselves.

    I stopped watching TV news three or four years ago. But you have to know what's going on, somehow, so there are a few sources I've come to trust. But guess what? They're just as depressing as TV news. Because what is actually happening is worse than what you might imagine if you stayed ...read more

    The Star and Stars of Christmas is a series of messages for Advent. Using the idea of a play on a stage. Each message will look at different characters in the Christmas story. The introduction takes a critical look at how many in our society are portrayed as celebrities—bigger than life.

    Often people are attracted to performances based upon the popularity of the performers, or the authors. (My wife’s father enjoyed David Baldacci, James Patterson, Danielle Steele, etc.).

    Towards the end of the last presidential debate there was finally a question on something that has the potential to be far more devastating to more people’s lives than a terrorist attack or even a war.

    Isaiah's Woes

    In Isaiah 5, the prophet pronounces God’s coming judgment on a sinful society. Much of what Isaiah taught applies to the West today. We need to pray for forgiveness

    Isaiah 5:8-30 I think we might well call Isaiah’s fifth chapter the chapter of ’woes’! And for that reason we tend to skip it by. It’s all too judgmental and too depressing. We say we want something to cheer us on our way; we want something to lift our spirits. We don’t want all this judgemental ...read more

    Trust in Jesus; how far will your trust in Jesus Christ carry you in todays society? Will you be seen as a commited to discipleship, or like Judas--an uncommitted pretender?

    COUNTING THE COST Luke 14:25-35 Counting the cost of discipleship. That is something that we don’t like to think about too often. But, everything comes at a cost. For an athlete, they must decide early in life just how serious he/she wants to become in their sport and train accordingly. I ...read more
