Who Is Jesus To You? Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Feb 24, 2025

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

Into The Wilderness: Tempted But Not Alone Series

Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Mar 8, 2025

This message is about the temptation of Jesus and how in our lives we are tempted but never alone. It helps show that the wilderness isn't about punishment but about testing and growth. It also helps us realize that when we are under attack God's word is our defense.

Into the Wilderness: Tested, but Not Alone You never really know if you’re ready until you’re tested. I remember the first Certified Volunteer Firefighter class that I ever taught. We spent months training … running drills, studying techniques, learning how to handle the heat and smoke, how to ...read more

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.

5 weeks from today it will be Easter. So, I thought that I would use the month of March to talk in detail about our Lord Jesus—my favorite subject.

How Extreme Attacks Can Reveal The Depth Of Your Godliness And Anointing Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Dec 22, 2024
