    The Radical Invitation Of Jesus, From Exclusion To Celebration Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Mar 17, 2025
     | 367 views

    In the calling of Levi, Jesus reshapes what discipleship looks like and who qualifies to be a disciple. Would we invite the "Levi's" of our day to follow Him?

    Introduction: Is Jesus “woke”? In other words, is He someone who is sensitive to or aware of the injustices experienced by the marginalized? If Jesus were walking on earth today, gathering disciples, would He do so along DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) ethical standards? Would he try to choose ...read more

    The Opposite Of Karma - Repent

    Contributed by Joel Pankow on Mar 22, 2025
     | 521 views

    How do things work in this world? Good for good? Bad for bad? Nope. Repent.

    3.23.25 Luke 13:1–5 (EHV) 1 At that time there were some present who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. 2 He answered them, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered these things? 3 I ...read more

    On The Mountain With God Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Mar 31, 2025
     | 677 views

    Throughout the Bible, the motif of the mountain has been instrumental in the lives of God's people. Here in Luke 6, Jesus ascends the mountain to pray - giving us an example and an invitation.

    Mountain Top Experiences Throughout the Bible we find a motif or a theme of mountain experiences. Mountains in the ancient world were seen as places where the things of heaven and things of earth intersected. In Scripture we find mountains as a places where surrender happens, where communion with ...read more

    Adventures In Missing The Point Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jul 7, 2025
     | 339 views

    As Jesus makes a turn toward Jerusalem, we learn that the disciples still have so much to learn - but so do we.

    In his book Mere Christianity, CS Lewis uses an illustration to note how different it is to learn something than it is to apply that thing. His illustration centered on the difference between a map and being out on the water. In two dimensions, a map can look quite straight forward. You can see ...read more

    On Mission For The King Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jul 14, 2025
     | 323 views

    After missing the point of who Jesus is and what He's doing, the disciples are sent on another mission trip. Here they learn about both the manner and the mindset of the mission.

    As we seek to minister for Christ here in and around Poolesville, as we support missionaries in other contexts, I think this same manner and mindset will be helpful. If you have you Bibles, open them to Luke 10. I’ll read the passage for us in order to help us gain a full picture of what’s ...read more

    The Extent Of Love Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jul 21, 2025
     | 300 views

    We are call to love God with all that we are and to love others as ourselves, but how? This sermon looks at the extent of loving God and loving others and reflects on the vast extent of Jesus' love for us.

    Luke 10:25–37 ESV And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?” And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and ...read more

    What is the necessary, good thing in our relationship with Jesus?

    I have a problem - a problem with serving food. I always want the bigger portion - if I’m pouring drinks for Danielle and me - I’ll take the one that’s a bit more. If I’m plating food, I’ll put a bit more on my plate. Now, I know she eats less than I do - basically everyone in my house eats less ...read more

    Teach Us To Pray Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 11, 2025
     | 191 views

    Following a time of prayer, one of Jesus' disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray. Luke records an abbreviated version of the Lord's prayer and then includes elements that encourage us to be bold in our prayer, promising provision and presence from God.

    Over the last couple of sections of Luke’s gospel, we’ve considered the importance of loving God with all that we are and loving others. We’ve also reflected on the value of sitting before Jesus in order to just be with Him and learn before we get in to the practice of serving. It seems like in ...read more

    Truly Following Jesus Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 18, 2025
     | 286 views

    There are a variety of reasons why some people follow Jesus - some for benefits, some to slander, some to argue, some bandwagon followers, but what does it take to be a true follower of Jesus?

    It seems like nearly every week I run into people who have some sort of faith. They say that believe in Jesus or at least call themselves Christians, but don’t attend a church. Their faith is very personal, private, and even comfortable. They choose to follow Jesus on their terms, as long as He ...read more

    Beware Of Hypocrisy Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 25, 2025
     | 125 views

    In His encounter with Pharisees and Scribes, Jesus discusses the characteristics of hypocrisy. To His disciples He notes the promises of hypocrisy with a stern warning. And yet, in the gospel, we find great hope for hypocrites.

    It seems like nearly every month (maybe even more frequently if we look hard enough), we receive news about some Christian leader who fails morally, gets caught, and is removed from ministry. Whether it’s pastors, professors, performers, or politicians - failure happens. We see hypocrisy ...read more

    Whom Shall I Fear Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Sep 2, 2025
     | 178 views

    Things and people that we fear take a variety of forms. Jesus urges us to not fear those who can only do things to us in this life, but to fear Him who has power over eternity - and yet because of His great love, we should not fear Him.

    Introduction There are things that all of us fear. What may cause me fear might not be what causes you fear and vice versa. Last night we were visiting with some folks and were reminiscing a bit about one of the fear inducing and adrenaline pumping experiences we had - bungee jumping. Fear, ...read more

    Freedom From The Burden Of Worry Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Sep 8, 2025
     | 120 views

    Fear and anxiety are things that can have an unhealthy grip on our lives. In this passage, Jesus teaches his followers how we can be free from the burden of worrty.

    In 1988, Bobby McFerrin released a song entitled “Don’t Worry, Be Happy.” It was inspired by the teachings of an Indian Guru who used to tell his followers “Don’t Worry, Be Happy.” McFerrin’s song was quickly written and recorded. It was released as an Adult Contemporary song where it made it to ...read more

     | 226 views

    Following the charge to not worry about others or about earthly possessions - Jesus seems to make another hint toward toward the cross and toward his time away from his people. In doing this, he calls his people to be ready and waiting while he is gone.
