    Look To The Crucified One And Receive Our Healing

    Contributed by William Tan Yh on Sep 10, 2020
     | 2,018 views

    Sometimes we are tempted to think that life is so unfair. Where is God when we are suffering? We attempt to look at questions such as: Why does Jesus has to suffer and die? & What does the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ has to do with me?

    Part 1 : Facts About the Crucifixion Crucifixion probably started first with the Persians but perfected by the Romans to inflict the maximum pain to the victim. Crucifixion was also the most disgraceful form of execution and cruel that Roman citizen will not be executed by crucifixion. ...read more

    A look at the Prodigal Son story through the eyes of the older brother. Video of this sermon can be viewed at https://vimeo.com/253087477

    For those who haven’t been here, the story so far is this – A son scandalously asks his still-living rich father for his half of the inheritance. Even more scandalously, the father gives it to him. The son does what you might expect from a young man – he goes and wastes it on wild living. He goes ...read more

    God’s Unconventional Reach

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Sep 14, 2019

    Jesus shares three stories to show how much every person matters to God. Jesus calls us to repent and return to him, love people he loves, and celebrate with heaven when lost people are found.

    Luke 15:1-10 God’s Unconventional Reach Have you ever lost anything? It’s really irritating, isn’t it? Losing car keys, losing your wallet, losing your cell phone. They make devices to ping all these things, but I’m sure I would probably lose that, too! Luke chapter 15 is all about lost things, ...read more

    Overwhelming Grace: The Prodigal Son, The Unjust Steward, And You!

    Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Sep 19, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 8,238 views

    This sermon examines the relationship between the prodigal son, unjust steward, and the hearer. It draws upon the parallels among all three to make a Gospel application. I am indebted to Dr. David Schmidt's observations on this text found on 1517.org for the idea.

    A few weeks ago, I bought the movie Dunkirk on sale, which is about the evacuation of over 300,000 British troops after the Fall of France in World War II. I tried to watch this movie at night as I was going to bed. Between falling asleep, helping with Mia, or checking my phone, the movie took ...read more

    What is God's attitude toward repentant sinners?

    Searching for the Lost: An Exposition of Luke 15 There are three well known parables in Luke 15, the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the lost son. Parables are illustrations which use a story to shed light on spiritual truth. Jesus wasn’t the only one who taught in parables in his day, but he was a ...read more

    "two Lost Sons"

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Mar 25, 2019

    A sermon focusing on the elder son in the prodigal son parable.

    “Two Lost Sons” Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32 This is probably one of the best known parables of Jesus in the Bible. I’d say it is right up there with “The Parable of the Good Samaritan.” It is usually referred to as “The Parable of the Prodigal Son.” According to the Merriam Webster Dictionary, the ...read more

    Being lost creates a strong sense of anxiety and often fear.

    Weekend Message/Devotion March 31, 2019 Luke 15:1-3, 11-32 Finding a Way Home! Most of us are very familiar with today’s gospel reading which is inclusive of the parable of The Prodigal Son. One commentary that I read entitles the reading: “Lost and Found”. Because the prodigal son is such a ...read more

    The plan of the Father is much better. He wants all humans to be His children, to be one with His Firstborn, Jesus Christ, worshiping in spirit and truth, in the Holy Spirit of Truth.

    Extravagant Love

     | 4,948 views

    There are some stories that are so wonderful they leave us feeling blessed just by hearing them. The story of God's extravagant love is one such story.

    There are certain stories that at the moment you read them or hear them they have the ability to really tug on the strings of the heart. They are so moving, so beautiful that you can’t help but feel blessed just by the mere fact of having heard or read them. This is exactly the way I felt when I ...read more

    This first person sermon hears the account of the prodigal son from the prodigal son himself. His story is our story - a story of God's amazing grace!

    This morning I would like to speak to you as if I was that prodigal, wasteful and reckless son that we heard about in our gospel lesson. I come to you this morning to share my story, the same story that Jesus shared with a rather diverse group of people who had gathered around him from every walk ...read more
