"my Sheep Listen To My Voice."

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jul 20, 2020

In John 10:27 Jesus said, "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them and they follow me." If we're his sheep, we'll be able to recognize when he's speaking to us. We will know him, listen to him and follow him. Let's look at this subject and see what we can learn.

The Other Cup Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 28, 2011

Which cup have you chosen to drink from? The love of God, poured out in Jesus Christ, is complete, unlimited and unmixed; the wrath of God is simply what’s left over when his love is refused.

One of the things that still divides our denomination is the matter of “inclusive language.” It’s a difference that lines up pretty much the same way as all the other hot-button issues, with theological liberals on one side and theological conservatives on the other. But there ...read more

Trinity Exposition: Why Should I Believe?

Contributed by Don Aldrich Tamayo on Jun 25, 2023

Is God the Father the only “one God”—or is the Son, Jesus, God too? If so, do Christians worship more than one God? Is that not polytheism, as some suggest? Is God the Father superior to Jesus? Did Jesus come after the Father? Was there a time when the Father but not Jesus existed?

Introduction: Let me start it with a humor, Why did the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit start a band? Because they had perfect harmony! Why did the Trinity go to the baseball game? Because they heard there would be a lot of "Son" shine! Let us Pray: Is God the Father the only “one ...read more

A Solid Starting Point For Effective Prayer Series

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Apr 9, 2025

The beginning of the Lord's Prayer is the words "Our Father in heaven." This starts our prayer with the fact that we are asking for help. How does this phrase encourage us in that direction?

- A couple opening points for the sermon series as a whole. - First, the Lord’s Prayer is a good antidote to our limited prayer life. - Many of us have prayer lives that are largely limited to asking for stuff, whether it’s for ourselves or for others.
