  • A New Kind Of King For A New Kind Of Kingdom Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Apr 17, 2025
     | 434 views

    On Palm Sunday, people clamored for Jesus to be their King. In the sermon on the plain, Jesus seems to lay out some things that help us to see who the Kingdom people are, what they should value, and how they should live.

    Today is a day that has become known as Palm Sunday, celebrating the day of Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem. Here, near the end of his earthly ministry, people had watched in wonder at 2-3 years of authoritative teaching, profound miracles, and even resurrections. They had become enamored ...read more

     | 518 views

    The Lord Jesus Christ began His "sermon on the mount" by addressing the blessings His people possess. He continues His teachings, covering topics such as influence, the Law, behavior, and how to love one's enemies.

    Matthew 5:13-16: Jesus compared all true believers to salt, which was used as not only a flavoring but as a preservative against spoilage. Our lives and words are to be used by the LORD to preserve morality and godliness in an increasingly decaying society. Like salt, our lives can be catalysts ...read more

  • Seventh Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year C -- The Word Nonviolent Can Be An Adjective, It Modifies How

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 20, 2025
     | 599 views

    Jesus is asking us today not so much as “how can I find a gracious God? But “How can I find God in my enemy?” And, how can we be children of God in real life without loving our enemies?

    The fictional Klingon language from Star Trek has no words for love. Of course, the Klingons were creatures of pure logic, not emotion. So, the closest words for “love” in their language were “honor” or “unhate.” That would be easy for us if we could define love simply as “unhating” others. ...read more

    THE GOD KIND OF LOVE. Luke 6:27-38. The Sermon on the Plain is directed towards those who ‘came to hear’ Jesus (Luke 6:17).

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 27, 2019
     | 5,057 views

    A “Manual” for Escaping Our Vicious Cycles through non-violence is what the Sermon on the Mount has been called; to transform the adversary - and, in the process, to be transformed ourselves.

    1). Mary Lou Kownacki relates the following tale: It seems that in a certain village a snake had bitten so many people that few dared to go into the fields. Finally, it was taken to a wise person who tamed the snake and persuaded it to practice the discipline of nonviolence. When the villagers ...read more

    Jesus calls us to radical discipleship.

    The Sermon on the Plain: An Exposition of Luke 6:17-38 Scholars debate whether this sermon is another version of the Sermon on the Mount. It indeed shares a lot of common themes.

     | 6,234 views

    Will we choose to be Willing Contributors or Wanting Consumers?

    1. John Ortberg tells about a carpenter in San Francisco who is a disciple of Jesus. For years he felt inferior as a disciple because he was “just” a blue collar worker. He had not fancy degrees. He had not special gifts of teaching. Then one day it dawned on him that if Jesus could be a carpenter ...read more

  • Motives For Giving Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 13, 2023
     | 3,764 views

    It is important for us not just to give to the Lord, but to give with the right motives. Jesus rebukes those who gave with the wrong motives, so we need to carefully consider our motives and how our motives align with God’s purposes and glorify God.

    What motivates people to give? You could read about results of research on this topic about what part of giving is motivated by self interest and what part is motivated by serving others. Our interest here is not the human psychology side of giving motivation, but the biblical motivation. What do ...read more

    Jesus said we should love our enemies. But I don't even like them, why should I even want to show them love?

    OPEN: I’ve always loved limericks, and years ago I ran across this one: “There once were 2 cats from Kilkenny Each thought there was one cat too many They fought and they spit, and they clawed and they bit. Till instead of two cats (pause) there weren't any.” (Pulpit Helps 3/97 p. 8) Now that ...read more
