Growing In Wisdom: Even 12 Year Old Jesus Needed To Learn

Contributed by Jessica Linde on Jan 6, 2025

By looking at the story of 12 year old Jesus wandering away from Mary and Joseph to go to the Jerusalem Temple, this sermon’s ultimate goal is to highlight that Jesus is fully Man as well as fully God, thus He needed to "grow in wisdom" just like the rest of us.

Because today marks the Christian feast of Epiphany—the day in which the Three Kings (the Magi) finally arrived in Bethlehem to adore the newly born Christ Child—this also means that today marks the official end to the liturgical season of Christmas! ?Now for some of us here, this might be a sad ...read more

The Priorities Of Jesus And His Family Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jan 7, 2025

This passage seems to reveal how Mary, Joseph and Jesus prioritized God’s things in their routines, regards (or affections), and relationships.

Today, as we continue our study in the book of Luke, we come to a rather peculiar passage that provides a rare glimpse into Jesus’ childhood. The other gospels vary in how much they share about Jesus before his public ministry begins. Matthew devotes about 48 verses to Jesus’ early years (some of ...read more

Sibling Jealousy: James' (Eventual) Turning To Jesus

Contributed by Jessica Linde on Sep 1, 2024

By considering how sibling relationships can often be contentious, this sermon's ultimate message is that we can't rule out God's ability to radically change people's hearts, because He ultimately radically changed the heart of James the "brother" of Jesus.

Well… I mean… we do know how the Gospel stories conclude (with Christ’s death, resurrection, and ascension), so I guess the biggest spoiler is already ...read more
