    Apologize for Jesus 1) Describe his help. 2) Declare your hope.

    Has anyone ever had to apologize for you? Maybe it was the time when you put a frog in your teacher’s desk at school. The prank got a few laughs when the frog jumped out causing your teacher to scream, but it also earned you a trip to the principal’s office. That was followed by a call ...read more

     | 4,585 views

    There are many today who are confused about Jesus. The most effective testimony in any court is an eye witness. John is an eye witness and you heard his testimony today.

    In the beginning of the church when the original apostles were teaching and planting churches, including Paul, the New Testament as we have it today had yet to be compiled. The writers of the New Testament were all first generation Jesus followers and their work would not be complete until John ...read more

    The Madness Of Jesus

    He is out of His mind! He’s lost His senses! He’s crazy! He’s flipped out! I believe He’s insane! Would these be the reactions of our contemporary society to Jesus Christ, we He among us today?

    The Madness of Jesus Mark 3:20-30 "And He came home, and the multitude gathered again, to such an extent that they could not even eat a meal. And when His own people heard of this, they went out to take custody of Him; for they were saying, ‘He has lost His senses.’ And the scribes who ...read more

    Christ's presence in the house of one of his friends reveals the impact He has on the culture, from the inside out

    I think that it is safe to say that while the church is a spiritual entity it is also a business. There are two sides to the church. There is the organism, that is the spiritual reality of the church. Then there is the organization, which is the infrastructure of the church. Anything that is a ...read more

    8. The Gospel by Mark is a record of virtually non-stop activity carried out at a rapid-fire pace. The key term repeated over 40 times in this first account of the life of Jesus, the Servant of God, is eutheos, the Greek word for “immediately.” Mark wast

    The number one priority of a church is to welcome, nurture, and concentrate on the presence of the living God being active among us. After we get that right everything else will flow out of it: evangelism, bible teaching and preaching, outreach etc.

    What a day it turned out to be, in fact what a life changing and challenging week it had been.
