    Roadwork Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on May 28, 2015
     | 4,891 views

    When you think of it, roadwork is a pretty good analogy of the journey of faith. God accepts us where we are but wants us to become like his Son. For most of us, that means there’s serious roadwork to do.

    Road Work Mark 8:34-38 My wife and I used to live Uptown on Octavia Street between Constance and Laurel just two blocks from Tchoupitoulas. At that time, the Port of Orleans was redoing Tchoupitoulas. When the street was dug up, they found that many of the feeder drainage pipes from the ...read more

    "fan Or Follower?" Series

    There are two groups and we have to decide which one we are going to be. There are fans and there are followers. Here’s the difference. Fans only follow when you are popular. Once you make one wrong move they turn against you.

    NOBODY BUT JESUS Fan or Follower? Mark 8:31-38 Let me ask you a very deep question this morning. Serious business. Did you know that Ben & Jerry’s has a new ice cream flavor? They put cookies and actual peanut butter cookie pieces mixed into the ice cream and then they bore a hole down the ...read more

    Loose Your Life To Save It

    Contributed by Scott Spencer on Feb 9, 2014
     | 5,206 views

    We are not called to a superficial Christianity. We are called to be Christ's disciples. We are called to discipleship.

    “Life is precarious, and life is precious. Don’t presume you will have it tomorrow, and don’t waste it today.” —John Piper Losers Keepers Mark 8:27-38 Peter’s Confession of Christ 27 Jesus went out, along with His disciples, to the villages of Caesarea ...read more

    Acquire The Vision Of Jesus

     | 2,640 views

    Nobody can be like Christ and attract others to the community of faith without being filled with His compassion.

    Thursday of 6th Week in Course 2014 Lumen Fidei "Get behind me, you adversary! For you are not on the side of God, but of men." I suppose St. Peter, who was just plain Simon Peter at the time, was confused by what Jesus had just said to him. After all, he was supposed to be the ...read more

    Say What!?!

     | 5,384 views

    We may not understand all of what Jesus says ~ or see where He’ll take us, as we continue to walk with Him; but, the point is, do we trust Him with our life and with our heart?

    Walkin’ with Jesus: Say What!?! Scripture Text: Mark 8.31-38 INTRODUCTION Did you hear about the high school basketball team that showed exceptional sportsmanship? A couple of weeks ago, the two-teams suited-up to play. …The problem-was that one of the key-players ...read more

    Contributed by Gregory Griffin on Jun 25, 2014
     | 5,443 views

    A look at Jesus as He dealt with His Disciples trying to get them to see Him for who He is and understand His purpose. As Pastors, we do the same thing each week, and get the same response from many...they don't get it and it can be frustrating.....

    “A Frustrated Jesus” Mark 8 Focal Passages Mark 8: 34-38, 2 Corinthians 5:11-20, Acts 11:19-25 As we have read, it was at Antioch that followers of Christ were first called Christians. It was meant to be a derogatory remark. This was during the time of great persecution of the church ...read more

    Is it "Come and Dine" or "Come and Die" as Bonhoeffer stated about the Cost of Discilpeship?

    The Call to True Discipleship: An Exposition of Matthew 16:21-28 Poor Peter! He had just had a most dramatic revelation and confession of who Jesus is. Because of this, Jesus had called him blessed. He had given Simon a new name Peter which means “stone.” Not only this, Jesus had personally given ...read more

    We humans think that we can be happiest when there is no struggle, when we can just coast. . .But that is not the state of society when there are still many who have not accepted and begun to live the call of Christ.

    Thursday of the 6th Week in Course 2019 St. Peter Damian Life after original sin came into the human family is a continual struggle. The story of a great flood is found in more than one culture. Here in our first reading we see God establishing a covenant after the flood between Himself, Noah and ...read more

    Sounds pretty harsh, right? Jesus said the very same thing on four different occasions and it is recorded six different times in the Gospels. What can we do about it?

    Live For Today and Die Forever Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … 1 Peter 4:10 “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” And our memory refresher verse(s) for today is(are) … 1 ...read more

    Where is the deal if being a Christian requires choosing tomorrow’s promises over today’s values?

    As you know, last we began a message series entitled, “Jesus TV.” JTV is an imaginary cable network of programs which mimic current and former hit shows by using their names to explain biblical truth.

    Jesus says that the Son of Man MUST suffer greatly...

    24B. Talk about anti-climactic: Peter’s inspired answer that Jesus is “The One,” (the Messiah), through whom God will accomplish all that he promised is followed by the rebuke of, “Get behind me, Satan.” e.g. A married lady went out shopping one day and when she returned home she brought with ...read more

    The Paradoxical Sayings Of Jesus: Lose Your Life To Save It Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jul 30, 2018
     | 9,600 views

    Perhaps Jesus' most challenging saying of all is that to save your lives we must be willing to lose it for His sake and the Gospels. We explore what this really means practically, and whether Jesus meant for it to be literally true.

    The Paradoxical Sayings of Jesus Lose Your Life to Save It Mark 8:31-39 We continue in our summer series on the paradoxical sayings of Jesus. Jesus said a number of things which violate common sense, and seem to be impossible with regard to all the realities we face in this world, and would not ...read more
