    “Looking Good on Paper” Luke 17:11-19 In one Peanuts comic strip Lucy, who is in love with the piano-playing Schroeder, is watching him play the piano—she’s looking at him all google-eyed.

    Do our expectations of who Jesus should be keep us from seeing who he really is?

    Maybe it’s just me, but there’s something about this story that has always bothered me. How on earth could Mary Magdeline, who has been one of Jesus’s closest friends, look right at him and doesn’t recognize him? Isn’t that like…the president of the George ...read more

    Mary risked discomfort and rejection in order to offer Jesus an extravagant gift. What do we risk in our worship?

    1. John 12.1-8 2. Selective Hearing (2 Slides) I like the story about a hobo who walked up to the front door of a big farmhouse, and knocked on the door until the owner answered.

    Do we Trust God? Really? We need to examine our lives every now and then to see if that is true.

    Trust Me These are two very loaded words. Trust is not something we do easily. And in this world of identity theft, on and offline scams trust can be a dangerous thing to give. In the days of youth group past I have participated several trust exercises. One is the trust walk where one person is ...read more

    God has his hand firmly on history. Prophecy calls us to choose what we trust in. Do we trust the God of money, such as retirement, investment. Do we trust the God of comfort etc. We are called by the still small voice of God to trust and obey Him.

    Intro: Bob Deffinbaugh tells a funny memory about chapter 11. He opened up an old Bible he had from Bible college and was reading notes in chapter 10 and finally got to 11 and one of his daughters had scribbled all over the pages of chapter 11. He wondered when the Lord returned if all of the ...read more

    How can we see Jesus Christ do a great work in and through us? And I am talking about a mighty work, a work changing us from the inside out, enabling us to become the man or woman in Christ we are capable of being.

    Seeing Christ Do A Great Work John 11 Introduction: 1. Most of you have probably seen a sign similar to this – “Men at Work.” I saw a funny sign that said this, and under it, it said, “Women work all the time…” 2. But did you know, God the Father and the Lord ...read more

    If we are dead, numb, and lifeless as is said by some about the Church then what does that say about us. Because we are the Church.

    We are celebrating this week; its Thanksgiving in our Country. I hope Americans truly understand why we have this great country and where the many blessings come from. I hope we are giving to God what is God's. 91% of Americans have turkey for Dinner. And so... I was thinking about Butterball ...read more
