     | 1,394 views

    God chooses His leaders by His sovereignty, but leadership emerges as a person grows in faith and develops his gifts to serve God.

    A. PETER’S NEW NAME … NEW CHALLENGE … NEW OPPORTUNITY 1. A new name. His original name was Simon (John 1:42), a modification of Simeon “to listen.” Could Peter ever have listened? When Peter was brought by Andrew (constrained to come) to Jesus (John 1:42), Jesus changed his name to Cephas which ...read more

    If Christ is not His last name, what is it? It is a descriptive title & it tells us WHO Jesus is. And for us to understand what that means is very important because it can make a lot of difference in our lives.

     | 2,212 views

    As Jesus begins his ministry, he calls out several men to follow him. This sermon considers the first disciples that Jesus calls.

    We all like to follow someone at various times in our lives. We may be motivated by curiosity, fear, ambition, knowledge, information. Sometimes our following is a simple and non-committed social media follow - we might just want to be in the know. Other times our following results in a certain ...read more

     | 3,046 views

    In Church history, St. Peter is everything and Andrew is nothing, but would there ever have been an apostle Peter without an Andrew? Andrew is a great example for us to follow to be witnesses for Jesus!

    "And He Brought Him To Jesus…”

     | 1,833 views

    Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, said to Peter and Andrew, “...Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” (Matthew 4:19).

    He did not say, “I will try to make you fishers of men”, He said, “I will make you fishers of men.” Our job is to follow His leading, and He will make us into fishers of men. Even though this is a clear command from God, it is seldom obeyed by the majority. Illus: For example, it has been ...read more

     | 1,871 views

    The Christmas Story in the Gospel of John is far different than the account in Matthew and Luke. There is no baby, no Mary and Joseph, no angels, no shepherds. But there were four wise men.

    The Gospel of John, chapter 1: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light ...read more
