    Note the depth of honesty in the Gospels. There is no cover-up here: Peter blew it! But Before we condemn Peter, given the circumstances, would we have shown up in Caiaphas’ courtyard that evening?

    The Sacred Cow

     | 7,943 views

    We don’t have high regard for cows in our culture. Even the term, sacred cow, is funny to us. However, God has given cows a special place in the Holy Scriptures.

    One of my favorite Far Side cartoons shows a herd of cattle standing at a fence, facing a leader. In the background is a large urban city in flames. In the caption, the leader cow is saying, “Evidently, Agent (some number) has accomplished her mission.” Cows. Even the word is funny. We don’t ...read more

    Jesus completed everything that he was given to do, and fulfilled all that Scripture had prophesied He would do. Only then does He make a statement about His own intense suffering.

    What two attitudes destroy the unity of the church? What is the only way given in Scripture to fight against this? Listen as Pastor Steve shows how we are to be involved in "Maintaining Spiritual Unity."

    Tonight we’re looking once again at the portion of Scripture that speaks to the subject of unity in the church.

    All Christians are called into God’s Church. And all are given gifts that they may play their part in the life and ministry in the Church. Each person’s gifting needs recognition, not least by church leadership
