    The most difficult words that Jesus ever uttered are easy to understand but hard to do. Let’s see how they would solve some of humanity's biggest problems. Let’s examine the selfless life in Mark 8:27-38.

    God expects us to take up our cross. What is that cross He is asking us to carry?

    Sermon Title: You’re asking too much. Scripture Text: Mark 8:27-38 ILLUSTRATION: Several years ago I read a story written by a preacher in the Philippine Islands. One day he was passing a large church on Good Friday when he spotted many selling incense, candles, veils and rosaries. He also ...read more

    Journey With Jesus

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Sep 24, 2021
     | 4,047 views

    Jesus explained his journey to the cross to suffer the punishment we deserved for disobeying God. Jesus then described the journey that we as his followers make throughout our lives.

    In what ancient city were the followers of Jesus first called Christians? Acts 11:26 tells us that the disciples were called Christians for the first time in the city of Antioch. Now let me ask you another question closely related to that one. What were the followers of Jesus called before they ...read more

    Simon Of Cyrene Helps Jesus Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 16, 2022
     | 1,767 views

    We don’t know if Simon complained all the way to Golgotha, or recognized Jesus and was glad he had helped, but his name--unlike most of those minor players in the Gospel drama-- has come to us.

    Simon of Cyrene helps Jesus (Those of us who have had the privilege and honor of a pilgrimage to the Holy Land always make Jerusalem part of the holy time. There, although the Jewish Temple has been replaced by a grand mosque, we can see the very places we read about in the New Testament, the ...read more

    Your Life Direction From The Lord

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 22, 2021
     | 1,053 views

    Peter thought he knew Jesus' direction. He did not. Do you know your life direction? Ask the LORD.

    Peter thought that he knew what the LORD’s plan was for the restoration of Israel. When Yeshua said that he would die at the hands of the Hebraic leadership, Peter was compelled to say, “not going to happen.” How many people today believe that they know what the LORD’s plan is? Many Christians ...read more

    Eyes To See And Ears To Hear

     | 6,827 views

    In a bible reading plan I'm involved in Mark 8 was among the readings this week. In vs. 18 Jesus asks his disciples if they have eyes but fail to see and ears but fail to hear. Let's look at Mark 8 and see what we come away with.

    EYES TO SEE AND EARS TO HEAR Mark 8:1-33 I've been going through an online bible reading plan with someone where we read the passages of the day and comment accordingly. Mark 8 was among the readings this week. In vs. 18 Jesus asks his disciples if they have eyes but fail to see and ears but ...read more

    Thank You Lord, For The Thorns That Hurt Us

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 24, 2021
     | 3,527 views

    No true child of God gets out of life without enduring some kind of pain, adversity, discomfort, or suffering. Each encounter we have with the difficulties of life need to be seen as lessons the Sovereign LORD teaches us to rely less on ourselves and more on His wisdom and grace.

    I've spent much time in thought and silent prayer, organizing in my mind and soul on how this message should be presented. I wanted to be certain that what I was about to say would be based primarily upon the Word of God and not merely a repeat of topics that I have covered in previous ...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

    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

    What does it look like to deny ourselves, take up our cross and follow Jesus?

    [IMAGE] Philippine Passion Play - practice of literally crucifying people (voluntarily). The practice began in 1962 after a popular play about Jesus’ death. One man, Ruben Enaje, (as of 2019) had been hung on a cross 33 times. Many men and women have voluntarily submitted to temporary crucifixion ...read more

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

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jul 30, 2018
     | 9,554 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

     | 1,262 views

    The life of discipleship has three steps: attachment, understanding, and imitation.

    God is unquestionably the world’s greatest fisherman. And he’s not at all offended by the description, either, because that is what he called us to be. And the first thing a fisherman has to know is what bait the fish will bite on. God got me good. Back in ‘83 I was Miss Corporate America, junior ...read more

     | 4,840 views

    This sermon marks a critical point in the ministry of Jesus. It is time for Jesus' disciples to know that He is the Messiah and to know what kind of Messiah He will be. They are shocked to discover there is a cross in store for Jesus and for all of Jesus' followers.
