What's with the strange story about the young man fleeing naked at Jesus' arrest? Mark leaves out so many big aspects of that event, but he includes this. Is it a meaningless, throwaway story? Or is it Mark at his best, crafting a profound message in a vivid picture?
Jesus leads the 12 into battle even though he knows they will fail. When the hour comes, you’ll have to face the battle, ready or not. Jesus fights this battle on four fronts. Front #1: Judas (Jesus fights dis-couragement by calling out to Abba, Father). Front #2: the rogue disciple who jeopardizes ...read more

This sermon explores Jesus' baptism, the wisemen's search for God, and how these spiritual quests shape our understanding of faith and our place in God's narrative.

Scripture: Matthew 3:13-17
Topics: Jewish People, John The Baptist
This message looks at an account of how encouragement was extended to a young man who had made a mistake, and reveals that encouragement is greatly beneficial in our endeavors at expanding the Lord’s kingdom.
In a world where people are often quick to judge and criticize, we’re all in need of some encouragement, wouldn’t you agree? I am going to be preaching about encouragement this morning. So, what is encouragement? Well, it’s defined as “the act of giving courage, or confidence of success.”(1) I ...read more
Scripture: Acts 15:36-41
Denomination: Baptist
When God’s plans confuse us, as they did John the Baptist, Jesus reminds us that His kingdom begins with mercy before judgment—and blessed is the one who trusts Him even in the waiting.
Good MORNING. Advent, Christmas and the New Year invite us to look at expectations, not only expectations for our own lives, but also the expectations we can make about God. Our Gospel lesson from Matthew shows us how even the best of us, someone like John the Baptist, can make assumptions about ...read more
Scripture: Matthew 11:2-11

Scripture: Revelation 1:4-20
Denomination: Christian/Church Of Christ
1 John is called one of the “General Epistles,” because it was not sent to a specific church. Rather, it was sent to churches in general.
The three books of John are referred to as “letters, however, the first was not written in the form of a letter. For example, it has no salutation nor conclusion. In fact, it has all the characteristics of a sermon in which a pastor is revealing his love for God’s people. To have a good ...read more
Scripture: 1 John 1:1-7
In the first sermon it was mentioned that in order to understand the books of 1, 2, and 3 John, we first needed to understand some things about the place John wrote from, Ephesus.
Because this is essential, I would like to refresh your memory before we get into the heart of this sermon. We dealt with these FOUR things about the Ephesian Christians: (1) THEIR HERITAGE. They were second and third generation Christians. Their parents and grandparents had been in the ...read more
Scripture: 1 John 1:7-8
In 1 John, chapter one, John had the audacity to tell some of those who claimed to be saved that they were liars.
Evidently John never took a course in “HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE”. If he had taken it, he would have had a hard time passing the course. We know this because we see he called those people liars five times. He used “liar(s)” in: • 1 John 1:10. • 1 John 2:4. • 1 John 2:22. • 1 John ...read more
Scripture: 1 John 2:3-11
In a previous sermon we dealt with what John had to say about how we can KNOW that WE KNOW THE LORD.
We discovered that anyone can say that they know the Lord...anyone! All one has to say is, “I know the Lord.” John used the word, “saith,” numerous times. He referred to it in: • 1 John 2:4. He said, “HE THAT SAITH, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not ...read more

Scripture: John 1:6-8
John the Baptist was the fulfillment of the promised Elijah who would come and restore the people’s hearts in preparation for the Messiah. But if that’s the case, why was Jesus crucified? Did John fail?
Mark 9:1 And he said to them, "I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God come with power." 2 After six days Jesus took Peter, James and John with him and led them up a high mountain, where they were all alone. There he was ...read more
