    A sermon showing John the Baptist pointing to Jesus - relinquishing his disciples to become Jesus’ disciples, an example of our pointing to the Lord.

    The Reformed Church of Locust Valley Epiphany II January 20, 2002 John 1:29-32 “Playing Second Fiddle” What’s wrong with second place? First place is worth fighting for, isn’t it?

    The truest community is found in a gathering of people who are learning to become Jesus-trusting disciples and are committed to making Jesus-trusting disciples.

    Living with a Common Purpose: Making Disciples Pastor Jim Luthy Last week we talked about the awakening in America to the problem of individualism. Rising from our slumber after the terrorist attacks, the people of our nation are giving blood, giving money, giving thanks, and giving in to ...read more

    Jesus washed his disciples' feet. What did he really want to teach his disciples about service and humility?

    [Sermon preached on 14 October 2018, Apostles' Sunday / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Last Tuesday, our Bible study group went through the three readings for today. We soon found that they have at least two things in common. For one thing, they have all been taken out of context. As you may have ...read more

    The Passion Puzzle Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Dec 29, 2025
     | 61 views

    Over the course of His time with the disciples, Jesus has been giving clues to help the disciples understand the grand picture of the Gospel.

    There is something quite interesting about putting a puzzle together. A single piece provides a little information, but when connected with many or all of the other pieces, the picture comes into view. The Apostle Paul has referred to the gospel as a “mystery.” Just as puzzles need to be ...read more

    The Cost Of Discipleship Of Jesus (2 Of 3) Series

    based on 22 ratings
     | 7,783 views

    Discipleship was not simply a program through which Jesus ran the disciples. Discipleship was life.

    Jesus clearly sets the conditions of entrance into discipleship. In Luke 14:25-33 He emphasizes the cost that disciples must pay in following Him. Anyone who wishes to be Christ’s disciples must meet Christ’s demands involving one’s family, self and possessions. Family Jesus declares; “If anyone ...read more

    There is an unwanted houseguest in the home of the disciple. This freeloader--given to laziness and self-indulgence as well as pre-occupation with self is an enemy who does not have the disciple’s best interests at heart. It is called "carnality". Who’s i

     | 991 views

    Last time we met I introduced what I called being a secret disciple. Today, I’d like to introduce another type of disciple, one seen in the life of Peter, which I am calling, being a distant disciple. A distant disciple is one who follows Jesus, but at a distance.

    Jesus Himself suggests a different reason to that which His disciples might have expected.

    THE PURPOSE OF THE PARABLES. Matthew 13:10-17; Matthew 13:34-35. It is possible to ‘Like’ Jesus without really ever knowing what He is all about. For some, He is a wonderful teacher, making ‘it’ all so much ‘easier’: yet what is ‘easy’ about, for example, Matthew 5:21-22 or Matthew 5:27-28? ...read more

    Jesus' followers are called to continue this process of "making disciples"...

    I begin this message with a quote from Richard Wagamese, a native Canadian Ojibway Indian: “Storytelling, the act of one voice talking, sharing experience, observations, learning and teachings is becoming a lost art.

    “Don’t You Know Who I Am?” 1) I’m your servant: imitate my humble service. 2) I’m your Lord: anticipate your heavenly crown.

    “Don’t you know who I am!?!” You wouldn’t be surprised to hear that from someone standing at the executive class check-in who isn’t getting the kind of service he thinks he deserves.
