A man had just moved into town and stopped at local restaurant for dinner. The waiter did his best to please him but the man complained that he’d only received one piece of bread with his meal, so the waiter promptly brought him four slices. The man said, "That’s good, but not good enough. I ...read more

Jesus Is God's Answer Sermon Vi: Jesus Meets Our Deepest Needs Series

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Jan 6, 2020

JESUS OUR LORD MEETS OUR DEEPEST NEEDS Of all the words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: “It might have been.” Folks, there is no need whatsoever for a follower of Jesus Christ to despair over what was, what is, what will be. ...read more

Jesus Christ: The Messiah, Not A Meal Ticket Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 14, 2021

When Jesus fed the five thousand, as recorded in all four gospels, He demonstrated what He taught about God being the Provider of our needs (Matthew 6:25-34). Most of the crowd, however, wanted food, not faith.

The Lord Jesus never taught anything about the nature and character of God the Father that He Himself did not demonstrate or model before either His disciples or the people who followed and listened to Him. When we first read of this miracle, mentioned in all four gospels, we see the Divine ...read more

Jesus Feeds His Hungry People

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 15, 2021

When we go to God through Christ, we will never walk away hungry. When we draw near to God with our whole heart, we will never walk away, disappointed. Because for us, our faithful Saviour will always provide enough—more than enough.

If you’ve recently prayed the Lord’s Prayer, then you made the request to your Father in heaven that He would give you this day “your daily bread.” I wonder if that’s a petition we make with a lot of sincerity. Are we really concerned about getting what we need to maintain our bodies? Is there ...read more

Don't Settle

Contributed by Jeff Poor on Jun 10, 2019

The problem with this crowd is that they are seeking Jesus for the wrong reasons. They’re ready to settle for barley loaves and sardines when Jesus came to give them eternal life. Throughout this narrative, the clear lesson is, “Look beyond the flesh.”

INTRO Good Morning… Blah blah blah… Stuff around loving John… Reading Keller, go through it a few times a year… And it always gets better… I love looking at the interactions Jesus has with the people in John… What I love is that Jesus gives people what they need, not always what they are ...read more
