In Defense Of Jesus (John 5:1-30) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 22, 2022

Jesus isn't a sinner, making himself equal to God. He's God's faithful son, doing just as his Father has shown him, doing the job the Father gave him to do.

I started this series by saying that everything in life depends on getting Jesus right. So far in the book of John, we've read about how Jesus is the lamb of God, the preexistent one, the savior of the world. He is also God. Now, how can Jesus be God, and the Father be God? Are there two ...read more

There Are No Closet Christians (John 7:1-52) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 3, 2022

Nicodemus tries to thread the needle, and secretly follow Jesus. This doesn't work. If you are silent about Jesus, you haven't really "come to" him.

This morning, we find ourselves (somehow) in John 7. Throughout the gospel of John, we have found people confronted with one basic choice-- will they give their allegiance to Jesus, or not? Some people, hearing Jesus' words, and learning, have come to place their trust in Jesus. ...read more

Who Was John The Baptist? (Luke, Part 2) Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Feb 3, 2022

The calling of John the Baptist is direct: Repent (turn) and receive. This appears to be tough challenge today … but it’s no different than it was in AD 29!!!

Introduction / Recap - We know that Luke was a physician – helped Paul throughout his ministry -- He was most likely a Gentile from Antioch (Syria) addressing a Gentile audience - Examining the language of the text indicates that he was well educated -- EX: Familiar with Greek; well versed in ...read more

A Redemption Story (John 19:38-42) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Apr 14, 2022

Nicodemus overcomes his fear, and the darkness, to courageously, openly, come to Jesus. A true disciple, is an open disciple.

This morning's sermon is going to have a different feel. The actual passage we are reading is only five verses. But these five verses build on a few other passages in the Gospel of John. And what these verses will help us do, is get a sense of the book as a whole. I'm hoping, after this ...read more

Believe In Jesus (John 20:24-31) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Apr 21, 2022

The goal of the gospel: step up, and be strengthened in your faith. Here, Jesus shows kindness to Thomas, and gives him what he needs to come to full "belief."

Let's start today by rereading last week's passage. John 20:19-22. This is the moment Jesus first reveals himself to all his disciples after rising from the dead: (19) Then, when it was evening on that day-- the first day of the week, and the doors having been shut where the disciples ...read more

The Four Wise Men (In The Gospel Of John)

Contributed by Peter Baumgartle on Dec 20, 2023

The Christmas Story in the Gospel of John is far different than the account in Matthew and Luke. There is no baby, no Mary and Joseph, no angels, no shepherds. But there were four wise men.

The Gospel of John, chapter 1: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light ...read more
