     | 3,946 views

    Third in a series based on the movie "John" released in 2003. Certain characteristics mark all true heroes. Jesus fits all of those descriptions, and more.

    If you like the book, you’ll love the movie. Or is it the other way around? If you liked the movie, you’ll love the book. The truth is that I loved the book (or books) when I read them for the first time in the 1970s. And I loved the movies (two so far) when they came out. Now I’m looking forward ...read more

    In this introduction to the series, we discuss what idolatry is and how it is still a problem in our modern times.

It is the problem that more than 50 of the laws in the first five books of the Bible are directed against. b. In Judaism it was one of only four sins to which the death ...read more

    Communion message the second Sunday of Advent. Gifting doesn’t come from stores but from our Lord in the incarnation of the Eternal Son, Jesus Christ

    Gift-wrap has either been tossed out or neatly put away and saved for another time. Boxes may have been recycled and hopefully the toys aren’t all broken yet. CD’s have been played, DVD’s watched and those new clothes worn. Christmas is officially over. So what’s the good news? It is a mixed bag. ...read more

    Jesus Says it is better for Him to go and to send the Holy Spirit. That may not make sense, so let's dig into John 16 and see why!

    Why Jesus Left Good Morning. This Morning’s Gospel text is from the same chapter we read from in John last week, John 16, and it does make a nice Part II to what we read. So, let’s review a couple of things from last week. 1. It comes from a part of the Gospel of John I figuratively called Jesus ...read more

    For many people, life seems dissatisfying. They are actually searching for home; but our true home is in heaven. Until we reach heaven, Jesus is our home. This is the expanded version of a funeral sermon I did called "Looking for Home."

    Some say, “Home is where the heart is.” What is home? John Ed Pearce, long-time writer for the Courier-Journal, stated, “Home is a place you grow up wanting to leave, and grow old wanting to get back to.” I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Searching for Home,” and I’m addressing this topic ...read more
