    Jesus Our Pastor Guides Us To Rebuke And To Live With Purpose!

    Contributed by Doug Koehler on Mar 6, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,813 views

    We can see how quickly satan can attack. In a short time Peter went from confessing Jesus to rebuking Jesus. Jesus teaches us how we can be on guard against our wiley foe as well as how to live with purpose for Him.

    (see also Mark 8:27-30) for context. Dear beloved in Christ... In our Gospel reading there is much to grab our attention as Jesus is in process of predicting his death and resurrection. We hear about how Jesus must suffer many things and that we are called to take up our cross and follow Jesus. ...read more

    Gideon serves as a voice for people living in conflict with God. Verse 13 is a perfect example of a human mindset when life gets difficult.

    Break the Cycle: Trouble Comes Along Text: Judges 3:7-11 Big Idea: As we repeat the cycles of our lives, they are often defined by the trouble that we encounter. Trouble is unavoidable, and it is related directly to our tendency to wander away from God. INTRO • Have you ever found yourself ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,105 views

    False ideas about angels which have been popularized by the New Age and other "spiritual" movements have actually infiltrated the church. This is a glimpse into a Biblical view of angels, the servants of God.

    Contributed by Ian Hyde on Apr 10, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,541 views

    We often pride ourselves in our work ethic, but we are addicted to work! This sermon takes a look at our need to find rest in the midst of a chaotic world and a myriad of responsibilities; using Jesus' practice of finding rest as our example.

    IMMEDIACY IN MARK When we read the Gospel of Mark, we read a story moving at breakneck speed.

And once he is baptized, it seems like he is ...read more
