    This morning we’ll complete a seven week journey in which we have examined the seven “I am” sayings of Jesus in John’s gospel account. And as we’ve done that, we’ve gotten to know Jesus better through His own words. Each of the seven sayings reveals some aspect ...read more

     | 4,359 views

    A 4th look at standing firm in our faith.

    Stand Firm - Part 4 June 9, 2019 As you read the gospel of John, in chapter 16, Jesus tells the disciples that people will be against them. In fact, Jesus literally says, “whoever kills you will think they are offering a service to God.” That’s brutally pretty blunt - “Hey guys, I really want ...read more

    This is what happens when you ‘abide with God’! You start affecting the life of others! Is it not exciting? Come on, we need to let the world know that it is fun being in the presence of God!

    Vine John 15:5 says, “I am the vine, you are the branches, he who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit, for without Me you can do nothing.” Do you know what it means to abide in Him? The English dictionary defines ‘abide’ as’ hold to and stick to.’ Spiritually it means to ‘stick on to ...read more

  • Identity 1– Created For Relationship Genesis 2 Series

    Contributed by Joseph Rodgers on Apr 11, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,676 views

    Who we are isn’t defined by our vocation or our successes, fears, or failures – our identity is so much more than these things. As Christ-followers, who we are, is determined by our spiritual birth.

    If I were to ask – Who’s Billy Graham? Most would say – BG was a great evangelist. And that’d be correct. But would it answer my question? No. B/c being an evangelist isn’t who BG is – it is what he used to do. If the totality of BG’s identity is found in being an evangelist, then who is he now ...read more

  • The Vine And The Branches

    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 27, 2021
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,450 views

    Divine life only flows in those people who are in intimate fellowship with Jesus Christ. We must spend quality time at Jesus' feet hearing His word. Like the moon has no light of its own, nor do we, but we can shine bright with the light of the Sun of Righteousness!

    THE VINE AND THE BRANCHES John 15:1-8 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man was speeding down a Texas highway, feeling secure in a column of cars all traveling at the same speed. However, as they passed a speed trap, he got nailed with an infrared speed detector and was pulled over. 2. When the officer ...read more

  • Which Branch Do You Want To Be?

    Contributed by Ian Bullock on Apr 28, 2021
     | 4,347 views

    As we think about Jesus being The Vine, this sermon challenges us to think about our relationship with Christ and how we move into closer relationship through our lives.

    In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen. One thing that I am not is green-fingered, I know how to mow a lawn, and how to pull up weeds, although if I’m being honest they are more likely to be flowers, and I know that roses should be pruned. I don’t know why this is the case, I just ...read more

  • Love, Fear, Forgiveness And Forgetting Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 28, 2021
     | 2,170 views

    God fills you with love, and as you mature in Christ, that drives out the fear of eternal damnation, the only real fear worth mentioning.

    5th Sunday of Easter We’ve grown so accustomed to seeing St. Paul as one of the good guys of history, especially of Catholic or Christian history that we might be shocked by today’s reading from the Acts. Paul comes to Jerusalem after a three-year retreat in the Arabian desert. He comes full of ...read more

  • The Life Line (2018, Fifth Sunday Of Easter)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Apr 28, 2021
     | 2,824 views

    Sin is perhaps the biggest of the obstacles because it is connected with all of the other obstacles in our lives that hinder God’s will. Sin has many forms and formats that make deadwood in our lives, but sin has one purpose and that is our destruction.

    THE LIFE LINE Text: John 15:1- 8 Just recently my daughter Lilly looked at the bushes of the parsonage that had been trimmed back. She expressed her concern that the bushes might not grow back. I assured her that that the pruning that had taken place was good for the bushes because ...read more

  • "staying Connected"

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Apr 29, 2021
     | 6,809 views

    In order to imitate Jesus, demonstrate love, joy, etc we must "stay connected" to the Vine. I begin with a story of Oskar Schindler about connections. Through prayer, worship and the reading of God's word, listening to His voice will produce good deeds.

    In Jesus Holy Name May 1, 2021 Text: John 15:1-8 Easter V Redeemer “Staying Connected” It helps to have connections. Everybody knows it’s true. It’s not what you know, the cynic says, but WHO you know that makes a difference. In 1982 there was a wonderful book which was ...read more

  • Fifth Sunday Of Easter; Easter 5 B; Vine And Branches

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Apr 30, 2021
     | 1,683 views

    The Atlantic began to come in; its mighty shoulders underneath the boats lifted—lifted until the derelict had to come. The youth had harnessed infinite energy to his task.

    5B "Apart from me you can do nothing." One of the most difficult acts of self-discipline in the spiritual life is to concentrate on the present moment: "age quod agis", which means do what you are doing, concentrate on the present. Staying connected; to be sustained and ...read more

  • Abide In Me

     | 4,817 views

    Abiding in Jesus is a command that requires an active and obedient response. May we develop and deepen our loving and intimate relationship with God our Father through Christ.

    JESUS DOES NOT WANT TO BE A PART OF YOUR LIFE! JESUS REQUIRES THAT HE IS TO BE LORD OF ALL AREAS OF OUR LIFE! EVERYTHING! NO DIVIDED LOYALTIES NOR WILL HE ALLOW ANY OTHER GODS BEFORE HIM. HE MUST BE THE CENTER OF FOCUS. THIS IS THE GREAT TRAGEDY OF GENESIS 3:9, “BUT THE LORD GOD CALLED TO THE MAN, ...read more

  • Abide In Me, Living The Resurrection Series

    Contributed by Amiri Hooker on May 1, 2021
     | 3,366 views

    We are practicing this abiding in Christ as we worship together with the hope that it will continue after the benediction is pronounced and the postlude ends.

    Like the good shepherd of last week’s text, this week’s image of the vine is another extended metaphor, which also borrows from and adapts Old Testament imagery for Israel. Whereas the Synoptic parable of the vineyard is a story of violence and greed (Mark 12:1-12), this image of the vine is one ...read more
