The Greatest Joy Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 15, 2021

Jesus was the happiest man in history, and the happiest being in all the universe, because he had the very joy of God.

My wife and I sometimes debate as to which of us loves the other the most, and we each make the claim that “I love you more.” The other responds, “No, I love you more.” It is one of those debates that can never have a winner because there is no love measuring device by which we can measure our ...read more

In Defense Of Jesus (John 5:1-30) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 22, 2022

Jesus isn't a sinner, making himself equal to God. He's God's faithful son, doing just as his Father has shown him, doing the job the Father gave him to do.

"Nicodemus Wears A White Hat”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Mar 11, 2021

Good cowboys wear white hats. Nicodemus was depending on his "goodness", keeping Jewish rules and his connection to Abraham. Our new American theology is not different....we want to depend on our own goodness. Jesus is not "one" way, but the only way.

In Jesus Holy Name Lent IV March 14, 2021 Text: John 3:17,18a “Nicodemus Wears a White Hat” Who wears white hats? In the old silent movie days you always knew who the good cowboys were. They wore white hats. The bad cowboys wore back hats. That way you always knew who the ...read more

"My Good Shepherd”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Apr 17, 2024

In John 10 Jesus reaffirms that He is fulfilling Ezekiel 34. Psalm 23 is a Psalm that touches a deep place within our souls. Why would Jesus compare Himself to a “shepherd” if in His own culture the role of the “shepherd” was a profession that was rejected?
