    Jesus wants fruit. Faith and prayer are supplied to us through him for this purpose.

    Mark 11 The final week of Jesus’ life begins with the triumphal entry into Jerusalem among cries of Hosana and blessing. This chapter begins on Sunday of that week and takes us through part of Tuesday as Jesus begins to force the hand of the religious leaders in Jerusalem. Jesus knows what will ...read more

    In this message we discover what it is that God is looking for in us. In fact, we will see what it is that he hungers for. First we wil see what he definitely does not want.

    WHAT GOD WANTS Mark 11:12-25 INTRO: Its hard to figure out what some people are looking for: • The man whose wife tells him he needs to bring her flowers, then cries and is unhappy when he does. • A boss whose requirements change frequently • A teacher whose grading seems arbitrary • A parent ...read more

    A study of forgiveness and the fig tree.

    This morning I want us to explore the incident of the fig tree and how it relates to Jesus teaching on forgiveness. Mk 11:12-14, 20-24 1) Mark 11:12-14 12 Now the next day, when they had come out from Bethany, He was hungry. 13 And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if ...read more

    This is part 2 of ’fruit and the fig tree’. Jesus is looking for fruit: of character (part 1) and His presence going to the gentiles (part 2). This sermon looks at the tearing of the temple curtain as a) us having access to God’s presence b)God’s presenc

    What is the condition of answered prayer that Jesus mentioned the most? It’s the necessity of faith.

    - The condition of answered prayer that Jesus mentioned most often was faith/notice how many times faith and belief are mentioned in vv. 22, 23, 24. How Much Faith Do We Have? 1.

    When Jesus moves in reviving power, He first cleanses the temple and removes the fruitless. Only the humble and watchful will survive.

    Its time to be ready, the King is coming. Its about 30 AD. The place is Jerusalem. It is the month of Nissan and the sun is sweltering overhead. There is a large crowd gathering along the dusty highway and your peer over the heads of the people in front of you. The crowd is shouting Hallelujah ...read more

    The Barren Temple Series

    Christ’s cursing of the fig tree and "cleansing" of the temple caution us about living our lives by mere appearances and trusting in anything other than Jesus.

    Appearances can be deceiving. I was reminded of this several years ago when I was waiting in line at a McDonalds with two of my sons. A guy came into McDonalds who looked really suspicious. He had long hair, tattoos everywhere, several body piercings, and he just looked scary. This guy seemed to be ...read more

    This text is troubling because it doesn’t seem to connect, but when you dig in it has a beautiful message of praying for the nations.

    Experiencing Hope/Expressing Hope (Mark 11:1-24) Sometimes we have a conception that people who approach life in a lighthearted manner don’t take things seriously enough. We often believe that they don’t care about things, that they have a kind of laize faire approach toward life, that they have ...read more

     | 4,418 views

    Jesus actions in the temple demonstrate that we have a responsibility to reach out and not just to make things comfortable for ourselves.

    The story we read today is an interesting one. It’s one that doesn’t really fit with the picture of Jesus that we usually think about. How does a loving Jesus, who goes around teaching good morals, fit with this violent figure who disrupts a market place, stops temple worship and causes chaos. If ...read more
