I Thirst

Contributed by Ken Henson on Apr 17, 2014

Water is a thematic element in the Gospel of John. Jesus baptised in it, turned it to wine, used it as a metaphor of life, used it to heal, walked on it, and washed His disciples feet with water. Yet on the cross He needed water, and He got none.

I Thirst In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. The first order of creation, even before God proclaimed, “let there be light”, there ...read more

Thomas: My Favorite Apostle

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 31, 2022

The apostle Thomas gets the short end of the stick when we read about him and his "doubts" in the Gospel of John. He is more like you and I than we want to admit, and his story affirms it.

The Incarnation Series

Contributed by Jeffery Anselmi on Aug 16, 2024

In Classical Christian Art, the Gospel of John is depicted with the symbol of an Eagle. Why? Because his theology is lofty. He flies closer to the Son. We are going to look at a handful of those “lofty thoughts” that will lift you out of the mundane to new heights.

INTRODUCTION - Today, we focus the message on a thought that sets Jesus above all others: the Word BECAME FLESH! - The word INCARNATION means the embodiment of God the Son in human flesh as Jesus Christ. - Throughout time, humans have looked for ways to see God or connect with Him. - Throughout ...read more
