     | 364 views

    This morning, I thought we might make a visit to the doctor, the Great Physician himself and in doing so I want us all to think about how we are when He ask, “How are you”?

    Good morning. It is a pleasure to be with you this morning and how are you? “Good morning – how are you?”. This is a very common greeting and more often than not the answer is, “fine and you”? We will often respond this way even if the answer is not even close to being true. For example, once ...read more

    There is a reason why in the chorus of “Days of Elijah” that the phrase “It’s the year of Jubilee” happens in an entire chorus focusing on Jesus Christ. "Jubilee" is about Jesus.

    Today, I thought I would start from the beginning of Jesus's ministry. Just what was His mission? Of course, we know what that mission was for us today. But in that day, the people had no idea what was about to happen.

     | 401 views

    We all face judgments from other people. Jesus faced that too. As He began his earthly ministry, Jesus experienced two completely different responses from two different towns. How will you respond?

    People make judgments about us all of the time. It’s not so much that they are judgmental, but that they get to meet us or get to know us based on certain associations. I know, by virtue of the fact that I’m a pastor, when I introduce myself to people, they make an immediate judgment. If they ...read more
