    All of us need a Fresh Encounter. Without any apology, Richard Blackaby was my inspiration for developing this message. Everyone needs a "First Encounter" with Jesus followed by a "Fresh Encounter"...It's life-changing.

    Fresh Encounter Jerry Watts John 12:1-11 * Have you ever had an experience which you would call an ‘encounter?’ Encounters are those events in your life which you ‘remember!’ I’ll never forget the time I almost stepped on a cotton mouth moccasin. I’ll never ...read more

    After Jesus makes His into Jerusalem to the shouts of Hosanna He tours the Temple and then goes out to Bethany for the night. Why Bethany? Who lived there and what can we learn from them?

    Lent 2019 - The Home in Bethany Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … 1 John 1:5-7 “This is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you: God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all.

    Giving Extravagantly

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 2, 2019
     | 5,022 views

    How extravagantly do we give? Do we give God our best or our leftovers? Let’s look at Mary’s anointing of Jesus in John 12:1-8.

    One of the greatest secrets of the universe is in Jesus’ words, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ (Acts 20:35) It’s a simple gauge as to how blessed we are. Are we generous? How extravagantly do we give? Do we give God our best or our leftovers? Let’s look at Mary’s anointing of Jesus ...read more

    Mary anoints Jesus with very expensive oils worth a year's wages.

    Weekend Message/Devotion April 7, 2019 John 12:1-8 Jesus Relishes Extravagant Worship “Six days before the Passover Jesus came to Bethany, the home of Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.” Verse 1 As we delve into today’s gospel reading, let’s look behind the scenes just a bit.

    What are we willing to do selflessly for the love of Jesus?

    Done For Love John 12: 1 - 8 Intro: As I worked on this sermon, I heard in my head a song from “A Chorus Line.” I can imagine Mary singing this song later in her life. It goes like this, “Kiss today goodbye, the sweetness and the sorrow. Wish me luck, the same to you. But I can’t regret what ...read more

    Reckless Worship

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Apr 7, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 11,366 views

    Mary, the sister of Lazarus, points us to reckless worship that is costly, active, personal, and sometimes judged.

    John 12:1-8 Reckless Worship Every time you see Mary, the sister of Lazarus, in scripture, you find her sitting at the feet of Jesus (Luke 10:39; John 11:32; 12:3). This lady knew how to worship. She knew—when many others did not—that Jesus was the long-awaited Christ. After all, he raised her ...read more

    Although we find it easy to be distracted by a thousand voices calling in our world, it is crucial that Christians be focused on serving Jesus in intentional ways. Mary of Bethany is a wonderful example of this!

    Defeating Death John 11 Introduction: 1. In this day of modern medicine, it is not unusual for a person to quit breathing and be resuscitated. “Resuscitate” means “to revive from apparent death.” 2. But when someone has been dead (person or animal) for four days, this ...read more

    The Perfume Of Grace

     | 9,229 views

    A perspective on John 12: 1-8. What happens at this evening meal is extraordinary. The perfume was worth a years salary, and Mary gave it freely and willingly to anoint the feet of Jesus. How will you respond to salvation, to the perfume of grace?

    John 12: 1-8 The Perfume of Grace Past events can be re-called, remembered through the help of pictures, stories and even pleasant aromas. Toast reminds me of breakfast as its aroma fills the house and beckons me to have more. For some Jewish people the aroma of BBQ lamb contributes to remind ...read more

    Costly Devotion

     | 7,343 views

    Mary's act of devotion was costly but it was worth the price because costly devotion gets recognized, it gets remembered and it gets rewarded.

    COSTLY DEVOTION John 12:1-11 1) Costly devotion is sacrificial (1-3). Weird word isn’t it-‘nard’. Doesn’t sound very expensive, does it? Sounds too close to lard. “Hey, honey, look what I bought for you; this perfume called Nard! I got you a whole pint of it!” ...read more

    We are called to be a balanced Church. We must achieve a balance between service and worship. The story of Martha and Mary focuses on finding that balance.

    There was a person who lost their daily planner awhile back. It contained all of their contact addresses, their calendar, to-do list, and monthly reminders. It even held their personal credit card information and expenses for the past year. They were devastated. Not as much for the loss of their ...read more

    Martha, Martha, You're Not So Bad

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 2, 2013

     | 20,490 views

    Often overshadowed by her sister Mary, Martha is often marginalized as an undesirable example of for disciples. However, when examined through the lens of scripture and not popular Christian books, Martha shines through as an example for all godly women.

    When I survey the women of the New Testament, I find some remarkable women of faith, Mary the mother of Jesus (Luke 1:26-38) is the first to come to mind. But, there are others, such as Joanna, Susanna and Mary Magalene (Luke 8:1-3). Later on, I read about Priscilla who, along with her husband, ...read more
