    A sermon about the Road to Emmaus and beyond.

    “We Had Hoped…” Luke 24:13-48 All four Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are absolutely consistent on this one thing: no one believes the Good News of Jesus’ Resurrection when they first hear it.

    Jesus is telling you and me that as we approach the time of His return, there will be things on a collision course with our faith, and we better maneuver to avoid the collision.

    Introduction For the past several weeks, we have been looking at how we are to prepare for the end times considering two men, Enoch and Noah, and how they prepared for the end in their day by a great flood.

    God Just Wants Me To Be Happy Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Jun 21, 2023
     | 2,592 views

    This is a common myth that is repeated often - it indicates that our personal happiness is the paramount good - what God wants more than anything else. Like each of the myths we will explore, there is a kernel of truth in there - but it is overcome by the misunderstanding of the saying.

    - MYTHS CHRISTIANS SOMETIMES BELIEVE - God Just Wants Me To Be Happy Introduction We are continuing our series of Myths Christians Sometimes Believe. In the last message, we talked about the myth that “God Won’t Give Me More Than I Can Handle.” Our myth in this message is a common one: “God Just ...read more

    Conflict between the monarchs and the spiritual leaders was a time-old problem. The spiritual could be arrested for condemning the political leaders, and systems. Politicians saw the religious leaders as a threat to their survival and existence.

    The 4th Article of Faith for the Church of the Nazarene.

    I believe that it is important to state what we believe up front and with full disclosure. Watch out for places of worship where they are unwilling to tell you what they actually believe. If they are hiding something, they are likely a cult. Cults are religions that are at least somewhat related ...read more

    Jesus wants to be loved for the right reasons.

    I expect most of you know that fear of commitment is endemic in today’s society. It's not surprising. I expect many if not most of us have experienced - or at least witnessed - bad relationships or are the children of divorce ourselves. If you've gotten burnt, you're more than a little ...read more

    Mourning Lessons

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Sep 11, 2023
     | 1,083 views

    It is right to mourn out loud when something that is precious is lost or destroyed.

    This is a really depressing passage, isn’t it, especially the first part. You can certainly see why this book of the Bible was called Lamentations. It was written by Jeremiah after the fall of Jerusalem. Our hearts really have to go out to him, don’t they? He spent forty years, his entire adult ...read more

    Trials And Temptations

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024

The basic meaning of peirazo is to test something to determine its response, value, or character. When peirazo is ...read more
