    Jesus anger wasn’t about selling things; it was about the evil vendors preying upon the innocent. When barriers go up relationship is broken.

    John 2:13-22 When the Tables Come Tumbling Down I would hazard a guess that when most of us think of Jesus, we picture the soft spoken, peace loving, gentle as a lamb, Savior. Always smiling, always patient, always kind. There is no doubt that Christ had a side of Him ...read more

    Does anybody know what the “S” in Harry S Truman stands for? NOTHING! It doesn't stand for anything. He was born with a middle initial… and that was it. The letter “S” was a compromise that his parents made to satisfy his grandfathers, whose names were Shippe and Solomon.” Several years ago, ...read more

     | 12,443 views

    So many people today live "without hope and without God" (Eph. 2:12), yet we build up walls that divide us from sharing the gospel with them. Christ tears down these walls and builds up the true church in its place.

    [I started the sermon at the altar rail that goes across the entire width of the front of the sanctuary.] Imagine, for a moment, that when you walked into church this morning that you received a big surprise.

    God stands at the end of our rabbit trails when we have exhausted all human options

    You’ve probably heard the phrase, “going down a rabbit trail.” Wild rabbits don’t like to saunter down Main Street; they prefer bolting down trails leading deep into the woods. (By the way, jackrabbits are capable of speeds up to 40 mph to evade predators). To go down a “rabbit trail,” then, means ...read more

    We don't have to look at Jesus's promise "Seek and you shall find" like a disappointed kid at Christmas, but with the light of faith. There's at least one prayer we always get a "yes" to.
