    This sermon explores the confession of Jesus made by the crowds with that of Peter’s confession, and seeks to explain the important differences therein.

    Our text for consideration this morning is the gospel lesson from the 9th chapter of Luke which was read. In it, we hear Peter’s confession of Jesus; that Jesus is the Christ or Messiah, the Son of the living God. Well, I’d like to take a walk through the narrative again highlighting a few things ...read more

    We pray that God’s will would be done, but we live our lives praying that OUR will would be done.

    Over the past few years, I’ve had the opportunity to attend several graduation ceremonies. There are always lots of speeches. Some have been good and others are sometimes a bit boring.

    If we believe Jesus is the Christ, we will follow where He leads.

    Jesus called disciples to follow him. What did he really mean by "follow me"? Luke 9 gives us some insight.

    Martin Luther once said, “A religion that gives nothing, costs nothing and suffers nothing, is worth nothing.” (from Philip Gunther’s intro.) What does Jesus mean when he says, “Follow me”? We need to ask ourselves, am I just tagging along or truly following Jesus? When Jesus says to us, ...read more

    Jesus makes it clear in Luke 9:23 that the path of discipleship is a costly one; what challenges do we face in "bearing our cross daily" in today’s culture?

    COSTS OF THE JOURNEY In this series from Luke we are seeing how following Jesus – what we call discipleship – is like a journey with him. This is what the disciples did in Luke’s Gospel, where Chapters 9-19 are in the form of a journey from Galilee to Jerusalem. In the first week Wayne introduced ...read more

    Freedom Through Self-Denial

     | 15,403 views

    On the one hand, Jesus says "deny yourself, take up your cross and follow me." On the other hand Jesus says "I have come that they may have life and have it to the full." The message explains how is self-denial is a life "to the fullest".

    Today we’re going to look at a topic that is very personal. The scripture is from Luke 9:23 “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.” Just hearing these words is difficult. Putting them into practice seems utterly hopeless, unrealistic. We ...read more
