    There are 4 parts to the story, & in each of these parts you will see how much Joseph loved Mary.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (Revised: 2013) If you were going to make a list of the great loving couples of history, who would be on your list? Romeo & Juliet? Anthony & Cleopatra? Mary & Joseph would probably not be on your list, for when ...read more

    Explore the story of Moses and the burning bush, emphasizing God's call, presence, and promise, and encouraging us to be open to God's plans, even when they seem impossible.

    Good morning, family! Today, we're diving into a special part of the Holy Scriptures, a story dear to our faith, filled with God's presence, calling, and promise. The story of Moses and the burning bush as told in Exodus 3:1-16. A.W. Tozer once said, "God is looking for people through whom He can ...read more

    How Can I Tell You About Jesus When I Am Afraid?

    Max is a Jr Higher who hates the locker room, and is now likely to be picked on for having a ash cross on his head after the Ash Wednesday service. It ends with a call to pray for others and submitting yourself to God to use you to lead others to Him.

    Max hated the locker room. It wasn’t a mild dislike, like the days he would rather not go to science or choir. Max really dreaded walking into the locker room and confronting first the smelliness of the locker room and then those small lockers. These lockers were really just baskets that you could ...read more

    This Sunday, I’d like to share God’s restorative plan through the life of a little-known person in Old Testament named Mephibosheth. What we’ll see is that his story represents what God has done for us, and how God seeks us out to bring us to His table.

    One of my favorite characters of the Christmas story is Simeon. He heard the "voice of Jesus" by the Holy Spirit. When you hear the Spirit give you a direction, you are hearing the voice of Jesus. The scriptures can also be "a voice of Jesus" (Jesus Speaks Leonard Sweet)

    Love Came Down At Christmas

    Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Dec 22, 2024
     | 531 views

    At Christmas if all we speak about is Jesus and the manger in isolation of his life of love and sacrifice we are doing the gospel a disservice. Christmas is a redemption story - tell it with all its glory.

    As we prepare for Christmas, sometimes I wonder if we have allowed the Savior to be stolen from our celebrations. I say this because “Merry Christmas” has been replaced with “Happy Holidays”, businesses exclude Christmas by saying “holiday sale” and when someone asks if you are ready for Christmas ...read more

    I preached this short message at our Christmas Even event. It was preceded (of course) by singing a number of Christmas carols. It was an attempt to include everyone who attended in the Christmas Story. I have several people help read through the long passage of Scripture.

    You are a Part of the Story of Christmas Luke 2:1-20 Read passage… One of the exciting things about the Christmas story is that you are part of the story. I.

    Christians need to be of one mind and one love. But too often we're so focused on ourselves that we can't reach that goal. So how do we change our self-centered way of thinking?

    OPENING: A city boy had never been on a farm before and he asked a farmer: “Mister, why doesn’t this cow have any horns?” The farmer cocked his head for a moment, then began in a patient tone, “Well, cattle can do a powerful lot of damage with their horns. Sometimes we keep ’em trimmed down with a ...read more

    Throughout the gospels there is no record of Jesus ever directly telling any of his chosen disciples that he personally loved them. Yet, there was no question about His love for them, for He demonstrated it time and again. Now He asks the disciples to l

    The story of Barabbas is the story of me (and you) and everyone who needs Jesus.

    I Am Barabbas Mark 15:1-15 • The decision had been made to have Jesus killed. The religious leaders have had enough, seen enough, and heard enough to know that Jesus had to die. The one problem that they faced and that was that they, as the religious leaders, didn’t have the authority ...read more

    “i Do”

    Proper 23 (A), 18th Sunday after Pentecost. We enter into the wedding feast of the Lamb when we believe His word of promise and come in faith, to praise and honor Him. Those who did not enter were centered on themselves instead of Christ.

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. “I Do” “I do.” Two small little words with big impact. While they can be used on many occasions, we immediately associate them ...read more

    Commitment to love one another what does that look like? The lesson from the hamburger! Living love and drawing on the sustaining power of Christ Jesus is where it is at.

    As I Have: John 13:34-35. Well over the last wee while we have been looking at a sermon series that I have called ‘from here to there’. It’s been about mentoring.

    When Jesus announces a traitor amongst them, all the Disciples answer "Lord, is it I?" A Good Friday message on betrayal and the dynamics taking place within the Upper Room.

    “ONE OF YOU WILL BETRAY ME!” JESUS STUNNED EVERYONE. IT WAS LATE IN THE EVENING AND THEY HAD JUST STARTED EATING TO PREPARE FOR THE PASSOVER MEAL TOGETHER. THE WORDS CUT THROUGH THE CELEBRATION AND CREATES A STRESSFUL ATMOSPHERE. VERSE 22 TELLS US THE DISCIPLES BECAME “GREATLY DISTRESSED” WHICH ...read more
