    A look at Jesus’ statements about coming to bring not peace, but division.

    With this speech, Jesus certainly grabs our attention. “Do you think that I have come to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division.” It’s not exactly what most of us come to church on Sunday morning hoping to hear. To a large extent our families are what make us who we are, where we ...read more

    NOTE: THIS IS NOT MY SERMON I DON’T EXPECT IT TO BE APPROVED (Just maintaining my calendar). It was written by Karl Barth - but its definately worth reading (and I’ve got a decent responsive reading to go with it...) MP: Fire produces coals and a

    Title: Fire Upon the Earth “I am come to kindle fire upon the earth and what would I desire more than that it should already burn!” (Luke 12:49).

    based on 94 ratings
     | 22,023 views

    Is it strange to you, that we plant nonbearing fruit trees, and God cuts down nonbearing fruit trees?

    A NONBEARING FRUIT TREE? Traditionally, the New Year is a time of new beginnings. It is a time when we make a commitment to do better this year than we did on last year! Out with the old and in with the new. But, it won’t be strange to us, that the same problems and perplexities ...read more

    What do we mean when we pray "deliver us from evil"?

    People have always been divided about Jesus. I have known folks who are so “sold-out” to Jesus they drive everybody else crazy.
