    Take Up Your Cross Series

     | 12,630 views

    What are we projecting to other people about our service to the Lord if we are complaining about it instead of having fun while we are doing it? We get hung up when people in the world try to trip us up and slow down our walk to a crawl.

He was retelling a story about his son Ryan who was about three years old at the time. Little Ryan had gotten up early one morning before his Dad and Mom. He managed ...read more

    Jesus’ captors tied Him up and led Him from the Garden of Gethsemane to the palace of the high priest, Caiaphas. Some Bible scholars believe that Christ was led by a chain that was placed around His neck.

    This was a funeral for a godly woman (who raised sheep). What did it mean for Jesus to be her Shepherd?

    A 23rd Psalm Funeral Jean Morphet was a very Godly woman and it’s no surprise (given that she and her husband Don raised sheep most of their lives) that the family told me that her favorite passage of Scripture was the 23rd Psalm. So I want to begin today’s eulogy by reading it: “The LORD is my ...read more
