    Beyond denying ourselves and picking up our cross to follow Jesus, we must live courageously and unashamed of Jesus Christ.

    IT WAS GERMAN PASTOR, DIETRICH BONHOEFFER, WHO WROTE, “SILENCE IN THE FACE OF EVIL IS ITSELF EVIL. GOD WILL NOT HOLD US GUILTLESS. NOT TO SPEAK IS TO SPEAK. NOT TO ACT IS TO ACT.” DR.

    The Full Gospel Of Jesus Christ

    Romans does not afford us the luxury of hearing an incomplete Gospel message. Paul lifts the idea of God's Righteousness and Wrath. Both are revealed and should be preached with equal clarity. God’s standard exposes the folly of men.

    Sermon – The Full Gospel of Jesus Christ Scripture Text - Ro 1:16-22 “16 For I am not ashamed of this Good News about Christ. It is the power of God at work, saving everyone who believes—the Jew first and also the Gentile.[a] 17 This Good News tells us how God makes us right in his sight. This is ...read more

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jul 30, 2018
     | 9,533 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

    A sermon that contrasts human concerns with the concerns of God.

    “Whoever Wants to Be My Disciple…” Mark 8:31-38 If we are honest haven’t we all at, some point, have disagreed with Jesus, asking Him why He doesn’t do what we want?

    The Way Of The Cross

    Contributed by Dawn Duryea on Mar 4, 2024
     | 898 views

    In today’s Gospel reading, Peter responds to Jesus’ announcement that the Messiah will have to suffer and die by denying the cross. Peter is in essence denying the truth of this teaching – that the Messiah must suffer and by extension, his disciples.

    Last week we heard about Jesus being tempted in the wilderness right after his Baptism. That’s the way it feels sometimes – you just make a decision and then things happen that immediately bring your decision into question. This wilderness, of course, is metaphorical and now we find ourselves in ...read more
