This message looks at the three temptations Jesus faced, why they truly were temptations, and how he overcame them, giving us a path to follow.

Faith In The Right Things

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Mar 16, 2025

This morning, a Canaanite Woman barges into the house Jesus is praying seeking his help. Jesus comments seem cold, but her acknowledgement of Jesus authority, and her need for Grace brings about a great lesson in where we stand before God.

Good Morning. Today, we have a tough lesson, in that it seems to show us a Jesus who is not the approachable loving friend we sometimes can imagine, but standoffish, aloof, and cold; similar to the way he talks to Mary in Cana before He turns water into wine. As the cartoon on the bulletin cover ...read more

Go! And See The Suffering Servant - Isaiah 53:3-4 Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Mar 30, 2025

Throughout history, people have misunderstood who Jesus truly is. Many see Him as a wise teacher, a miracle worker, or even a religious revolutionary. Isaiah 53 paints a powerful, prophetic picture of Jesus as the Suffering Servant—the One who took our place, bore our pain, and carried our sorrow.
