    Often churches are not united because people kill the vision God has for the church, this sermon shows what kills a vision.

    As I read and meditate on this passage of Scripture, I find myself in awe of the profound truth of Jesus’ prayer. For many Christians it is hard to comprehend, much less receive. Yet, Jesus words are truth...

    John 17:20. "I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; 21. "that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. 22. "And the glory which You gave Me I ...read more

    Unity in Oneness – John 17: 20 – 26 Intro: I don’t believe Jesus was naïve enough to think that people in his church are going to agree on how many candles to put on the communion table, whether a wooden cross or metal is more appropriate or whether to use styrofoam, paper, ...read more

    What is on Jesus’ heart when he prays for himself, and for you? How could this change your prayers?

    When someone communicates to us a need in their life, we as Christians have an automatic response. We say, “I’m praying for you.” Now that is a fine response if we actually do it. Many times what we really mean is “I’d like to pray for you, lifting you up to the Father, but in reality I’m going to ...read more
