Demonstration Of Royal Service Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 1, 2024

Jesus had so little time left for His disciples to learn that the way to glory is through service and not through position and authority.

"the Towel, The Basin, And The Command To Love"

Contributed by Mark Zorn on Apr 16, 2025

Tonight, we gather in the sacred shadow of the upper room, on the night when Jesus showed us what love really looks like. It’s not dressed up in flowery words or grand gestures meant to impress. It’s gritty. It’s raw. And it’s humbling.

Open our hearts to hear Your Word anew, and may we be inspired to love one another as He has loved us. Amen. Introduction Tonight, we ...read more

The Showdown In The Desert (Matthew 4:1-11)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 6, 2024

After being baptized in the Jordan river, Jesus was driven into the Judean wilderness by the Holy Spirit to face forty days of hunger, thirst, and a supernatural battle with His archenemy and ours, the devil.

The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness of Judea, a barren, dry, and desolate area. It would be a place of severe testing where He would encounter the works and wiles of the devil, a real being whose aim was to try and tempt Jesus to abuse HIs power, lose His faith, or submit to the ...read more
