The Hour Has Come Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021

John continually speaks of a mysterious hour with little to no explanation. Like Hansel and Gretel’s breadcrumbs, the reference to “the hour” is important clue to understand Jesus in John’s gospel.

Palm Sunday is a significant marker for God’s people. It’s the day where Jesus enters into Jerusalem to kick off a week of monumentally important event.

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Mar 9, 2022

Look! Who Is Coming To Dinner? John 12, Part 1

Contributed by Jay Yousling on Dec 29, 2020

People have preconceived notions of public figures. People have immediate, often polarizing opinions, about the person. Jesus was like this. He was a well know but little understood national figure. When you see Jesus, who do you see?

Not The Jesus They Wanted Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 10, 2021

The crowds were looking for a Christ who would "remain" and lead them into glorious earthly kingdom, but Jesus was talking about being "lifted up" and not being with them forever. The Jesus they wanted wasn't the Jesus they were getting.

Cyanide.” “King Solomon had 700 wives and 300 porcupines.” “The men who followed the Lord were called ...read more

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Aug 13, 2022

There is no other disgraceful form of death than to be sentenced to death by hanging on a pole, by a tree or any other device to suspend a person between heaven and earth. Our Lord died in that manner. Jesus knew the type of shameful form of death he must endure; yet he went to the hanging anyway.

How Did You Say We Are Made Complete? On A Cross?! Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 14, 2021

Because this is the only way we sinners can be made clean, rescued from eternal death, we draw near to Calvary and look on the crucified Savior.

Today’s Scriptures are powerful, and that’s an understatement. The verse to memorize for understanding the Gospel, and application to our life, is “unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone”. We’ll see that presently. The context of these words is a feast, where ...read more
