An Extraordinary Commission (Part 2)

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 25, 2025

Jesus gave His disciples a commission to go and preach; to not only do good deeds, but use words. He would provide them food, clothing, and shelter for their journey, and the Spirit would guide them to those receptive to the gospel.

I have entitled our sermon this morning, “An Extraordinary Commission,” and this will be Part 2. The word “extra-ordinary” means “outside, above and beyond the ordinary,” which is what we saw in our last message, when Jesus gave His disciples “power over unclean spirits” (Matthew 10:1); and ...read more

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 8, 2025

Teach Us To Pray Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 11, 2025

Following a time of prayer, one of Jesus' disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray. Luke records an abbreviated version of the Lord's prayer and then includes elements that encourage us to be bold in our prayer, promising provision and presence from God.

Over the last couple of sections of Luke’s gospel, we’ve considered the importance of loving God with all that we are and loving others. We’ve also reflected on the value of sitting before Jesus in order to just be with Him and learn before we get in to the practice of serving. It seems like in ...read more

I remember when I used to answer every call that came in on our telephone with a sense of excitement and anticipation.
