    We all have a past, but we don’t have to live there. The grace of God is bigger than our regrets!

    We’ve all made mistakes and bad choices. We’ve done things we wished we could forget but somehow the memories of our past sins and temporary stupidity come back to haunt us and when that happens they turn into regrets; they become things we start to second guess: “What if I would have…” “Maybe I ...read more

    The end of Joseph's life provides an opportunity to think about the legacy he left . . . and the legacy we will leave.

Israel is in Egypt. b. They are there because of Joseph. c. When Israel got there, they were highly ...read more

    Our world is in complete darkness. Jesus is the divine light that can take away the world's darkness. As Christians, we are called to show and to shine the bright light of Jesus' love to others.

    Since the mid 1980’s most of us have seen or heard of those famous Motel 6 radio and TV commercials that even to this day we can’t get out of our heads. Do you remember them? It was that familiar voice of their advertising spokesman saying, “I’m Tom Bodett for Motel 6, and we’ll leave the light on ...read more

    Leaving behind what Jesus left behind

    Living the Simple Legacy Legacy: the word has almost become undesirable because we most often hear it used to describe something that politicians and especially get obsessed about. Most of us assume that there will never be a biography written about us so we don’t worry too much about our legacy. ...read more

    Introduction Brian Warner once said: “Initially I was drawn into the darker side of life. But it’s really just human nature.

    The worldly life is 1) Intellectually futile (Ephesians 4:17), 2) Ignorant of God’s truth (Ephesians 4:18), 3) Spiritually and morally callused (Ephesians 4:19a), and 4) Depraved in mind (Ephesians 4:19b).

    Ephesians 4:17-19 [17] Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds. [18] They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart. ...read more

    To think of Jesus in such a light seems almost irreverent. There’s something about keeping Him divine that keeps Him distant and predictable.

    Summary: God in all of His wisdom hid the real date of His Son’s birthday and even His physical attributes ... “She will bring a Son to birth, and when she does, you, Joseph, will name Him Jesus--'God saves'--because He will save His people from their sins." (Msg.) v.22-23 “All of ...read more

    Intro: The miracle that we are going to look at today is the second to last miracle Jesus performed before His crucifixion. What's unique about this miracle is instead of Jesus healing something or making something whole, in this miracle Jesus curses something.

    As you heard in our scripture reading Jesus cursed the fig tree *1st SLIDE and then the next day when they went by it again it was dead and withered away. It’s important to understand that this was a sign to the Jews that if they rejected Jesus as their King they would be cursed, of course they did ...read more
