    INTRO.- 15Do not love the world or anything in the world. What part of "no" do you not understand? Or better yet: What part of "do not" do you not understand? Who said those words?

    Was Thomas unfairly besmirched when the church begin to preface his name with "Doubting"? Yup.

    I love the church of Jesus for so many reasons. One of the reasons I love the church is the diversity of people you find in the church. We’re all here today, singing songs of worship and engaged in what is happening, but we come from so very many places. What’s going on in each of our minds is ...read more

    My friend Nigel (who is not a Christian) once said that that when Christians speak about God, he can feel like a primitive tribesman who suddenly encounters New York City - he just can’t get his head around it. If we want to begin to get our head around God, what one thing should we do more of?

    Moses climbs up Mount Sinai - up THAT mountain- and disappears into the cloud at the top, the cloud that somehow represents the presence of God. There he stays for forty days in that haze, time apart in the presence of God receiving from God the ten commandments and other laws and teachings for ...read more

    The leading priest shout: "We have no king but Caesar!" Never would a Jew say such a thing ever with greater impunity and more importantly with greater arrogance.

    The Smiths

    Demetrius “Smith” represents someone whose judgement is clouded by selfish desires. Alexander "Smith" represents someone who doesn't want to be alone in his sin; who makes it a point to cause other Christians to stumble.

    I’ve entitled our message for this evening, “The Smiths.” Have you heard about the Smiths? Take for instance Zipporah Smith. “Who’s that?” you may say. Well, her husband, Moses, was used by God to deliver the Israelites from their bondage in Egypt. You see, Zipporah was a Kenite, and the word ...read more
