    Easter & Mary Magdalene

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 12, 2022
     | 2,580 views

    It was early the Sunday morning of Jesus’ resurrection (John 20:1-18). That time of year, mornings could be a little chilly, so Mary probably wrapped herself up against the cool early air as she headed towards the garden tomb.

    It was early the Sunday morning of Jesus’ resurrection (John 20:1-18). That time of year, Jerusalem could be just over 20°C (about 70°F on the old scale) during the day. Early that morning it may have been about 10°C (50°F), so Mary probably wrapped herself up against the cool ...read more

    Stony The Road We Trod:

    Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Apr 12, 2022
     | 2,451 views

    Jesus’ “going up” to Jerusalem is a public event, interpreted by Luke as a royal entry.

    It is that “slash” day again—as in Palm/Passion Sunday—as in trying to capture two seemingly distinct moods and experiences in one act of worship. It is almost impossible to do, it seems. If we lean toward the Palm Sunday experience and emphasize the exuberance of the triumphal entry into ...read more

    Today, in the society in which we live, we have many valuable things, so:

    • We have safes in our homes to store such things as valuable Jewelry, and rare coins, etc. • We have banks to store our money in But back during the days when this parable was being taught by the Lord Jesus, people did not have these things. Most of the time when people wanted to store something ...read more

    Stand Firm And Work Hard Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Apr 16, 2022
     | 3,181 views

    'Stand firm and work hard' might seem a very strange Easter message. But it's Paul's key message in 1 Corinthians 15 - the longest passage on the resurrection in the Bible. The resurrection gives us hope - and that hope gives us reason to stand firm and work hard.

    Easter Sunday is the day when we celebrate the fact that God raised Jesus from death. When I say WE celebrate the fact that God raised Jesus from the dead, I mean, WE IN THIS CHURCH celebrate it. Clearly, a lot of other people DON'T celebrate it. A few years ago the Daily Telegraph conducted ...read more

    Maybe some of us come to Easter morning struck down by circumstances beyond our control—by health problems, betrayal in relationships, job loss or simply by the emptiness of looking ahead at more of the same.

    We all get to use the same amount of time each week- 24 hours each day for seven days or 168 hours in the week or if you want to go down to seconds- there are 604,800 seconds in a week.

    Introduction We all get to use the same amount of time each week- 24 hours each day for seven days or 168 hours in the week or if you want to go down to seconds- there are 604,800 seconds in a week.

    Introduction When Anne and I were much younger, we use to fly a lot. And I was always amazed as I looked about the plane’s cabin at the number of people who could sleep while the plane was in the air. No matter how much I tried to go to sleep on a plane, I just couldn’t. Anne could, I couldn’t. ...read more

    John's whole life and purpose were about witnessing to the light of Christ arriving in the world. What is it that we have in common with John the Baptizer?

    Jesus came to rescue us and transfer us from the realm of darkness into His kingdom. We cannot be transferred into His kingdom unless we have been rescued from the realm of darkness.

    RESCUED AND TRANSFERRED Text: Colossians 1:11 – 20 Someone (Rev. Dr. Faye E. Schott) uses the analogy of an avalanche to help explain the rescue operation that this passage of scriptures talks about. “We are helpless to save ourselves from the ...read more

    Jacob was Isaac's son and Abraham's grandson. He stopped at Bethel, for the night, but some interesting things happened while he was there.

    Bethel: where Jacob met the Lord Preface: When you think of Jacob, what comes to mind? Clearly, he was one of the most colorful people in the Bible! Sometimes we think he was a shady character, such as when he “bargained” with Esau for the birthright. I still think there’s a bit of humor in that ...read more

    One of the greatest truths of Christianity is God's promise to always be with the Born-Again Christian in every situation and circumstance of life. This is one truth that is known, yet somehow is hard to truly believe!

    "Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation."
