    This is a sermon that focuses on our life just one week after Easter. It follows the central character of Thomas as our representative in that room, one week after Easter.

    Isaiah 53:10-12 Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the Lord makes his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand. After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be ...read more

    A Easter Message... God’s Plan for us through the Resurrected Christ is revealed.

    * Watch the video… God Has A Plan… Let’s open up our Bibles to John 20: 1-18... Let’s stand as we read God’s Holy Word. 1. God has always had a _Plan_ for your Life.

    The Carpenter's Cloth Series

     | 11,405 views

    This is taken from Sigmund Brouwer’s wonderful book of the same name. This speaks of the cross being only part of God’s plan of salvation for us, the empty tomb being the other. Jesus the carpenter wants to complete His work in us.

    John 20:1-9 – The Carpenter’s Cloth Tonight I’m going to share a thought with you that I read several years ago, and it has blessed me ever since. In fact, likely, you remember it since I read it to you on my 1st Easter Sunday message in Doaktown and Blissfield. I hope that it encourages you ...read more

    Fools Rush In Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,938 views

    This is about John beating Peter in a footrace to the empty tomb, but Peter going in first. t’s about Peter’s courage, and how we need to live courageous lives, following God’s plans for us.

    John 20:1-9 – Fools Rush In Today, as we are continuing our series called He is Risen Indeed, where we have been studying Jesus’ resurrection and what it means to us, we turn our attention to the men of the story. We have studied Jesus’ female disciples, but now we look for inspiration from ...read more

    Who Do You Look Like?

    We should look like Jesus - or atleast his brother. When the world looks at you, who do they think of?

    Who do you look like? John 20:19-31 I have heard it said that every body has a twin in this world. I remember hearing that in high school. I had never though of it much until someone pointed out somebody that thought could be my twin. Our high school has 1200 students and I was not exactly a ...read more

    Sight Unseen Series

    When the Risen Jesus told Mary Magdalene not to cling to Him, it was because Jesus wanted Mary to have a faith that went beyond the 5 senses. Jesus asks us to walk by faith, not by sight.

    John 20:10-18 – Sight Unseen Today I am preaching 2 different sermons on the same passage of Scripture. That’s really the power of the Bible – there is so much good stuff in there. Two different people can preach on the same passage and get 2 completely different sermons out of it. The same ...read more

    Three times people did not recognize the Risen Jesus. This looks at why. There were spiritual reasons, of course, but also real physical reasons too. This looks at what distracts us from seeing Jesus.

    John 20:10-18 – Distractions Today we are continuing our series called He is Risen Indeed, messages about Jesus rising from the dead and what that means for us some 1976 years later. Today we are in John 20:10-18. We are looking at the 1st appearance Jesus makes after rising from the grave. He ...read more

    Who is Jesus to you? Is He your friend? Is He your healer? Is He the One who does great things for you? I hope He is. But He is also so much more. As we start our journey through the book of John my prayer is you will see Jesus for who He is and that you

    This morning, I have to admit that I am very intimidated. As most of you know, I am deeply committed to what can be called systematic consecutive expository preaching.

    Jesus said we who did not see, hear or touch Him, are more blessed that those who did

    John 20:19-31 Why we believe what we believe In Hebrews 11 verse 6 it says: ‘without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists’. The writer of John’s Gospel gave us the beautiful words in 3 verse 16: ‘For God so ...read more

    After Pentecost 120 men & women changed their world. The power is still here, & the challenge & authority are still with us. For the same power & authority that sent Jesus, is desiring to send us to change our world.

    JOHN 20: 19-23 ON MISSION WITH CHRIST [John 17:13-23] The Day of the Resurrection had been full of strange rumors and growing excitement. The news that Jesus was alive began to spread among His followers, hesitantly at first, and then with enthusiasm. Even the Apostles were not convinced by ...read more

    Why did John focus on Mary Magdalene’s viist to the tomb in his gospel? What was there about what she saw and what she believed that made her story so important to his story?

    These verses summarize the Book's strategy, subject, & purpose. The strategy was to use selected works or "signs" of His subject, Jesus, which illustrate Jesus' character, demonstrate His power, & relate Him as the answer to man's great needs.

    JOHN 20: 30-31 ENCOUNTERING GOD'S PURPOSE For many scholars these last two verses of chapter 20 constitute the conclusion of John's Gospel with chapter 21 being John's personal appendix. These verses summarize the Book's strategy, subject, and purpose. The strategy was to use selected works ...read more

    Faith Over Feelings

    You are to believe! But it’s what you put your faith in, that’s what’s often left unsaid. And when the object of your faith is not clear, then your faith isn’t connected to the Lord.

    Intro The Apostle John says in his first Epistle, “This is the victory that has conquered the world: our faith” (1 John 5:4). If so, then it seems that all we have to do is have more faith. If we believe more, if we have more faith, then faith will destroy our sinful urges. Faith ...read more
