The Hour Has Come Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021

John continually speaks of a mysterious hour with little to no explanation. Like Hansel and Gretel’s breadcrumbs, the reference to “the hour” is important clue to understand Jesus in John’s gospel.

Palm Sunday is a significant marker for God’s people. It’s the day where Jesus enters into Jerusalem to kick off a week of monumentally important event. The citizens of Jerusalem greeted Jesus with palm branches and shouts of “Hosanna” as he entered the city on the back of a colt. Our story picks ...read more

The Final Hours Of The Lord Jesus -From Golgotha To The Grave (For Now) Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 19, 2021

The Lord Jesus is in His last moments of agony and pain, both physically and spiritually as He completes His mission of redemption for fallen humanity. It looked on the surface, however, like a victory for his enemies and the devil as He died and was placed in a borrowed tomb, or so it would seem.

(Adapted from an outline by Mark A. Copeland) Following a night and morning of torture, ridicule, and mockery, Jesus was taken away to be crucified (Mark 14:53-15:25). For six long, horrendous, cruel hours He hung on the cross, and to add insult to injury, He heard the continuing mockery ...read more

Overcoming Fear

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Nov 6, 2020

Before his crucifixion Jesus gave his disciples some instruction on how to overcome fear. His instruction to them is applicable to us too.

[Note, this series started to follow the SermonCentral ‘Fear Not’ series, but this week I went in a different direction.] Today we have the second talk in our series ‘Fear Not.’ Last week we started by thinking about healthy and unhealthy fears.

It Is Finished

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Apr 7, 2024

Jesus cried his last words on the cross, "It is finished". The work of redemption is accomplished, the will of the Father fulfilled, and the witness of the Father completed.

John 19:28-30 IT IS FINISHED John 19:28-30 – The Death of Jesus 28After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfil the Scripture), “I thirst.” 29A jar full of sour wine stood there, so they put a sponge full of the sour wine on a hyssop branch and held it to his mouth. 30When ...read more

When Will Jesus Return Again? Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021

Jesus’ Second Coming is rich news to those who are hurting. All the pain and suffering of our lives will not last forever. As one pastor recently said, “The promise of the second coming shows us the ‘good ole days are always ahead of us.”

Several weeks ago, I asked for your help in your choice of today’s sermon. Your top choice was “When Will Jesus Return to Earth?” But a little analysis of the results led us to understand that it was really only this early service that asked for this topic. So … in the next couple of services, the ...read more

Ponder The Palm Sunday Paradox

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Mar 29, 2010

Ponder the Palm Sunday Paradox 1) An almighty king rides to his death. 2) A humble king commands our praise.

Do you know what a paradox is? A paradox is a true statement that at first appears contradictory. Here’s an example: “The more you learn, the less you know.” Here’s another paradox: “Less is more.” Christianity is filled with paradoxes. Take the Palm Sunday ...read more

The Greatest Comeback In History Premium Sermon

Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 8, 2023

The sermon explores the concept of Jesus' statement "it is finished" on the cross, emphasizing that it was not a declaration of defeat, but a proclamation of victory over sin and death.

When Jesus said “it is finished”, as He hung on the cross, He gave up His spirit and He died. To many, this may have seemed like a defeat. The Evil One thought he had finished Jesus. The Roman soldiers thought they had finished Jesus. The religious elite thought that they had finished Jesus. ...read more

The story of Jesus Christ’s crucifixion did not end on Friday. It did not end in death. Because it was early on Sunday morning – the very first day of the week – Jesus rose from the dead.

Don't Be Afraid - Only Believe Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 6, 2006

Does Jesus have authority over the difficulties in your life? What if God doesn’t seem to answer your prayers on time, do you still trust Him? In this study we see Jesus take authority over the powers of darkness and death itself.

The last half of Luke 8 gives us two incredible stories of Jesus combating the forces allied against humanity - the hosts of darkness under the control of Satan, and darkness itself: death. Just before this episode, Luke records for us Jesus’ control over the elements as He calmed the wind storm ...read more
