Take A Walk With Jesus

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Oct 12, 2020

When we find ourselves confused, and struggling, doubting God’s power, questioning his goodness, wondering about his faithfulness or whatever else it might be, don’t walk away from Jesus. Walk with Jesus, just like Jesus did with those followers on the road to Emmaus on Easter afternoon.

“What do you want?” “I don’t know. What do you want?” “I’m not sure, what do you think?” “I don’t know. What do you think?” Sound familiar?

Was God Angry At Jesus? Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

The New Testament writers were constantly going back to Isaiah 53. Isaiah 53 really was the basis for their understanding of what happened on the cross. I wonder did the resurrected Jesus preach from Isaiah 53 to the two disciples on the Emmaus Road?

On the two Sundays directly following Easter Sunday, I want to answer your questions about God, Life, What’s Right & What’s Wrong.

A Double Vaccination Of Jesus?

Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021

In the story of a blind man being cured by Jesus it took Him two attempts. This is a foreshadowing for many disciples. They may need to "Jesus experiences" before them become devout disciples.

A Double Vaccination of Jesus? Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Mark 8:22-26 22 And they came to Bethsaida. And they brought a blind man to Jesus and implored Him to touch him. 23 Taking the blind man by the hand, He brought him out of the village; and after spitting on his eyes and laying His hands ...read more

Jesus Came For Everyone

Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021

Jesus established His church to be open to all who wanted to worship Him. Why does today's not believe this? As a Jewish convert and pastor I have been on the receiving end of Anti-semitism in church.

Jesus’ attitude and language used in the narrative can be shocking to the reader. How can our Lord and Savior treat anyone in the way He is portrayed in this narrative? The pagan woman was looking for her daughter to be cured. Instead of immediately helping her, He calls her a dog, thus insulting ...read more

Jesus Loves Sinners Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 9, 2021

Jesus is the shepherd who loves the sheep whose performance is the worst. He loves in spite of your poor obedience, your poor performance. No one has been more inclusive of sinners than Jesus.

Jesus tells us three stories that arrives at a climax with a return of a son to his family and his father. These three stories, finding a lost sheep, a lost coin, and a lost son, form a pyramid where the three show us the same truth but each side shows a different shade and nuance to God’s love. ...read more

Jesus Versus Satan Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 10, 2021

There was a great deal at stake in the desert. Had Jesus lost to Satan here, God’s whole plan to save humanity would have been destroyed.

Today we conclude a series entitled, The Man Who Won’t Go Away. As we examine Luke 4, we see a telling snapshot of the temptation of Jesus. There is so much in this story that I want to get right to work. And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the ...read more
