    While we are waiting for answers from God, there are some valuable lessons for us to learn.

    Most of us have experienced the following: You want to get down the road, but the road is curvy, and you’re behind a slow driver. You have to slow down and wait. How about making an important phone call, and all you get is a machine. The machine says, “If you live within the U.S. press 1; If ...read more

    This is a call to examine our hearts through a thought provoking and shocking story to determine what type of faith we have.

    Crumbs of Faith by Rev. Andrew Chan Mark 7:24-30 Valentine’s Day, what shall I preach on? Since we have been going through Mark I thought we continue… Tempted not to preach on this. Rather difficult esp. on Valentine’s Day! Seems like not a very convincing love story…or is it? Shocking to hear, ...read more

    Is the way Jesus treated the Greek woman a sign of racism? Let’s find out...

    In the beginning of Chapter 7 Jesus had a discussion with the Religious leaders of the day about what made a person clean or holy to worship God and what made them dirty or unholy, unfit to worship God. The Pharisees liked to look on the outside of a person’s life & judge them by what they see or ...read more

    When we follow Jesus, he will lead us beyond our comfort zone with people, especially people we are not naturally drawn to.

    Note: This sermon was introduced with a scene from "Traveling Light" All of us have limits and boundaries that make us uncomfortable if we go beyond them. I was reminded of this back in November when my oldest son and I went to the Promise Keepers "Passage" event at the Anaheim Pond. At one point ...read more

    I told my neighbor that I was Italian and Puerto Rican. She said, “The Italian side is the good side.” How can we break down racial walls? I have three ideas.

    Breaking Down Racial Walls Mark 7:24-30 I told my neighbor that I was Italian and Puerto Rican. She said, “The Italian side is the good side.” Imagine how I felt. Where does racism, prejudice, bigotry come from? God to Samuel: Man looks on the outward appearance, but God looks on the ...read more

    Jesus tongue is a sword. His words are God’s words and they have power to heal or destroy. How do we handle hearing harsh words from heaven’s holy herald?

    Read or quote Mark 7. Does God’s word ever say something that bothers you? I dare say, if you have never had that experience, you must not be reading your Bible much! The word of God comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable, does it not? God told Jeremiah, (23:29) "Is not My word ...read more

    When Jesus meets the Syrophoenician woman He seems to act totally out of character. However there is a reason why He acts in this way … and it is a reason which gives us all hope.

    Mark 7:24-30 People of God in the Lord Jesus Christ, On many occasions in the Scriptures the actions of Jesus make perfect sense – but our text doesn’t seem to fit into that category does it. The way Jesus acts in this passage seems to be so out of character, doesn’t it.. In fact this is the ...read more

    What's Inside?

     | 6,962 views

    In a culture obsessed with diets it seems that everyone’s obsessed with what goes inside because it effects how we look on the outside. The Pharisees weren’t much different. But Jesus said it’s what’s on the inside that counts!

    What’s Inside? Mark 7:1-8; 14-23 Move 1 – Swallowed Penny Story - I’ll never forget it. I might have been eight years old when one day my parents told us to sit still while they ran into the store to grab something.
