    This sermon explores the past, present and future appearances of Christ.

    Easter is not about us. Easter is not about our new Easter clothes. Easter is about hope. Easter is knowing that death on this earth is not the end of life. Your soul, your spirit, was created by God to live forever. Includes a quote from Mel Gibson's Pasion of the Christ.

    In Jesus Holy Name April 17,2022 Text: Matthew 27:66-28:1-3,5 Redeemer “Last at the Cross, First at the Tomb” Easter is a wonderful celebration. I’m so glad you are here this morning to enjoy the experience of Easter worship. The spring flowers bloom in the sunshine. There is ...read more

    What if your loved one came back from the dead?

    When my mother died in 1993, I was unprepared for the intense grief that hit me like a freight train. My father had died ten years before, but that was different. He didn’t like me, and there was no love lost between us, so the whole process was not that traumatic. When my mother died, though, I ...read more

    Have you ever felt that doing things for God is impossible and if you fail you’ve fouled up God’s plan? This message will encourage you to step out, even if you fail.

    The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the single most important event in world history. It is even more important than the cross - in this way: that if Jesus did not rise from the dead, the cross would be meaningless for mankind. Jesus was perfect and would go back to be with the Father - the ...read more
