The Transfiguration Of Jesus

Contributed by Revd Dr Ruwan Palapathwala on Dec 20, 2024

In Jesus's Transfiguration, He reveals who we truly are and who we are to become by the grace of God.

I suspect. Most of us look in a mirror at some point each day. We check our hair, makeup, teeth, and clothes. Mirrors show us what we look like. While it might be important to know what we look like, it’s more important to know who we are. That’s what this holy Feast of the Transfiguration is ...read more

No Room For Jesus

Contributed by David Owens on Dec 23, 2024

When Jesus was born, there was no room for them in the inn and so they had to stay in a stable. That physical reality represents a spiritual reality that also occurred. There was no room for Jesus in the lives and hearts of many people of that time and the same reality continues today.

It is our tradition here at Wetzel Road, to focus on the birth of Jesus on the Sunday closest to December 25th. 3. Because a large portion of the world is ...read more

Jesus The Rock Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Aug 24, 2024

The Old Testament knows God as the Rock. But Jesus is also The rock. He is the only firm foundation to build our lives on. But we need to learn from the ancient Israelites. They were unfaithful and most were destroyed. We must not make the same mistake.

INTRODUCTION We’re in a series looking at descriptions of Jesus. The Bible is full of descriptions of God the Father, of Jesus, and of the Holy Spirit. Last week, we looked at one of Jesus’ descriptions of himself. He said, ‘I am the good shepherd’ [John 10:11]. We looked at what shepherds were ...read more

Offended By Jesus Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Aug 28, 2024

I want to answer one question this morning: How Do You Know if You are a Genuine Believer?

Can you remember a time when you were truly offended? I’ll be 53 later this year, and I was recently asked if I’d like the “senior discount” at a nearby restaurant. After I noted all my grey hair, the waitress really recovered well when she said, “Well, you don’t have wrinkles on your face.” Have ...read more

“The Authority of Jesus” John 2:18-25 One Sunday a visitor showed up: - to a more formal, liturgical church - than he was used to attending. The church was so quiet you could hear a pin drop: - That made it even more obvious - when this visitor got excited about something the minister said and ...read more

In Jesus’ Name

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Oct 31, 2024

With names in mind, nicknames or surnames, can you name all the nicknames or surnames given to Jesus? We identify him as Jesus Christ. Let us notice a few.

It stands to reason there are too many people in the world for the number of names available. Some people create new names but the total number does not come near the population. To correctly identify a person in conversation a surname is given. A surname is a last name. This becomes understandable ...read more

The Heart Of Jesus

Contributed by Troy Borst on Nov 1, 2024

The theodicy often centers on the question: If God is omnipotent, omniscient, and benevolent, why does evil exist? Theodicy seeks to reconcile the existence of a good God with the reality of suffering and injustice in the world.

THE HEART OF JESUS JOHN 11:1-44 #john11 INTRODUCTION We will be in John 11 this morning. There are some questions in this life we live for which we have absolutely no good answers.
