    First Response Part 1 Series

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Jan 19, 2014
     | 6,433 views

    This message focuses on how our first response to situations will often prove or disprove our confessions of walking in faith.

    First Response Scriptures: Eph. 6:12; Prov. 3:5-6; Acts 2:14-16; Gal. 2:11-14 Introduction: Last week I woke up to find that our heater for our home was broken.

    Go The First Ten Feet

    Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Apr 8, 2017
     | 4,700 views

    Self-denial is to be lifted with Jesus—and the first ten feet of his ascent is on the Cross. You cannot reach for Jesus without letting go of the things you’re holding onto. Make it your passion to go the first ten feet with Jesus.

    "When I am lifted-up," Jesus said, "I will draw all people to myself." And just in case you are tempted to interpret this up-lifted status to mean something glitzy, John sticks in a little commentary in verse 33 to make clear that the "lifting up" Jesus had in mind was the cross. Ultimately Jesus ...read more

     | 2,376 views

    This is the 15th of 31 devotions from a series called, 'The Church Called Jonah.' In these devotions, which are based on the book of Jonah, I make a comparison between The Church-at-large in the light of this present global pandemic.

    # 15 – The First Death Wish Jonah 1:12: “And he said to them, ‘Pick me up and throw me into the sea; then the sea will become calm for you. For I know that this great tempest is because of me.’” In our previous devotion we saw how the sailors asked Jonah what they should do to him so that the sea ...read more

    From the beginning, perceptive outsiders have been welcomed into the presence of Jesus.

    Yesterday was the Twelfth Day of Christmas. That means that today is Epiphany. Epiphany means manifestation or revelation – a turning on of the light – the shining light.

    God is faithful. That is, God is true, and constant, and will adhere to his promises. He will not deceive. He will not promise, and then fail to perform; he will not commence anything which he will not perfect and finish.

    Jesus has been taken to Pilate’s palace by the religious leaders. They need Pilate to give Jesus the death sentence, since the Jews no longer have that authority. Pilate interviews Christ and announces that he is innocent.

    Why does God call us to live differently than the world around us? It doesn’t seem fair!
