Found Among Sinners Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 5, 2017

Large crowds followed Jesus, coming where He was. He could've waited on them to come to Him, but often He went out, seeking them. Jesus was often found among those society rejected. We too must be willing to go where they are, seeking to reach them.

Found among Sinners Mark 2: 13-17 Following a season of ministry around the region of Galilee, Jesus had returned to Capernaum. His return created quite a stir, as multitudes arrived at Peter’s house, hoping to see Jesus. The palsied man was miraculously healed, and Jesus made a statement that ...read more

The Church As A Hospital

Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 12, 2018

Many churches are no more than museums or Country-Clubs, unable to help those in need. Jesus wants the church to be like a hospital, not to judge, but to bring healing and positive direction. Do what Jesus did!

Jesus asked a "black sheep" to be one of the 12 apostles. It probably caused a stir among the apostles, and sure did with the Pharisees! But it changed Levi's life and he celebrated it with a party for Jesus!

Showcase For Saints Or Hospital For Sinners?

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Feb 19, 2022
