The Next Five Minutes

Contributed by Grant Van Boeschoten on Jan 3, 2012

If you were offered 5 million dollars for the next 5 minutes of your life, with no holds barred, would you make the deal? How much more should we live in the light of Eternity when our life on earth is but the blink of an eye.

We are going to set up the title of this message by going through a scenario. Imagine with me that there is a knock at the door, we go over to it, open it up, and in walks a man with a beautiful Armani suit, a fedora hat, and big smile on. “I have great news for you,” he says. ...read more

Gone Fishing

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 17, 2023

What did the disciples do after Jesus' miraculous resurrection? They went fishing! But this passage teaches us that it’s okay to get on with our lives while waiting for Jesus to make it clear what it is we are to do for him.

I’ll bet not one of you can tell me exactly what happened to the disciples after that first Easter morning, and in what order. And it’s not surprising. I would have had a hard time putting together a chronology of events if I hadn’t had to preach on the subject, and even then there’s a little ...read more
