     | 1,106 views

    If you find Jesus as your Savior, first find someone close to you and tell them about Jesus, and bring them to Jesus.

    “John the Baptist stood with two of his disciple looking at Jesus. The Baptist said, ‘Behold the Lamb of God,’ and Andrew and John began following Jesus. The Master… asked, ‘What are you looking for?’ They said, ‘Master-Teacher, what are You staying?’ Jesus said, ‘come follow Me.’ It was 4 p.m. so ...read more

    Why Jesus Had To Suffer Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on May 1, 2024
     | 1,051 views

    For Jesus to be the “the Lamb of God” meant the Messiah HAD TO suffer. Yet, to think that the Messiah would suffer was as preposterous as thinking you could swim across the Atlantic.

    Our series is devoted to enabling you to place your faith in the Lord Jesus. I invite you to find John 1 with me. Remember, John’s gospel was written in order that you would believe in Jesus Christ. That you would trust in Jesus. The word “believe” appears more than seventy times throughout the ...read more

    Maybe you are wrestling with things in your life. The question is, are you wrestling with these things alone, with other people or with God? How will you be set free?

    God Sees You, Not Only As What You Are, But As What You Are Becoming

     | 18,571 views

    When Jesus met Simon, he named him "Peter", or "Rock", even though Peter's character at that time was decidedly un-rocklike. But Jesus saw what he would become, just as he sees as, not only as we are but as what we will become in Him.

    The first thing we notice in these seven verses is the number of references to stones. Living stones. Precious stones. Corner stones. Stones that are chosen by God but rejected by men. A stone that causes people to stumble and fall. Now, think about that for a moment. Why would that be? Why would ...read more

    Occasionally, Scripture presents us with events that change everything—epochal moments. This sermon explores one such event from John 1, marking the public unveiling of Jesus' ministry.

    Epochal Events I came across a short line from a theologian and scholar named Richard D. Phillips. He basically said this (as I'm paraphrasing here), “Occasionally in Scripture we come across a truly epochal event that just changes everything.” — Richard D. Phillips I love that word: ...read more

    The calling of the first disciples is a story of incredible importance because it shows us how ordinary men (and women) - are called by the Messiah of God - to do extraordinary things in His name. Are we willing to also give up everything we prefer to serve and lead a life that glorifies God?
