    Waiting is one of the hardest things we are called to do. And sometimes our expectations get skewed in the meantime.

    Passage: Matthew 11:1-6 Intro: There are few things in the human experience as intense as waiting for something. 1. It seems like we spend our whole lives waiting to grow up, for our birthdays, our graduation, our marriage, our kids and our grandkids. 2. and of course, we wait in incredible ...read more

    Have you ever doubted God? John asked Jesus if he was the Messiah or should he look for another.

    Doubting John Matthew 11:1-6 1. Have you ever doubted God 2. I think most every child of God goes through momentary lapses of faith. From time to time we all doubt.

    We go there some times in times of desperation, sometimes just because we do, maybe the ememy whispers doubts into our ear, but we go there, believe see and hear what the Lord is doing, and be blessed as you remain in him!

    The Beatitudes wrap up, the Baptist doubts! Blessings, what a wonderful thing it is to receive a blessing! Over the last couple of months we have looked through the beatitudes those blessings that Jesus talked about, we looked at the whole way in which he talked about these beatitudes, which are ...read more

    Don’t be defeated because a miracle hasn’t come yet.

    Are You He That Should Come? Matthew 11 There are 2 people that are noted as being foreordained/predestined in the OT to come in the NT. One obviously was Jesus, and the other was John the Baptist. It is interesting to see the correlation between these 2 men, as Luke says they were kin folks ...read more

    John the Baptist had doubts as to Jesus being the Messiah so asked for evidence, receiving details of His Mission and Identity and a Commendation.

    JOHN THE BAPTIST AND THE MESSIAH John the Baptist was a great personality, very much in the mould of the Old Testament prophets. In fact he was the last in their line. As a young man he’d had an inner urge to serve God. No doubt his parents had told him of the special circumstances surrounding ...read more

     | 11,755 views

    Have you ever stopped to consider what you expect from Him? A helper, a rescuer from your troubles, a self-help guru, someone that thinks like you? In this chapter Jesus punctures the expectations of others and ask that you really listen to Him.

    What do you expect from Jesus? It’s a natural question. If you ask you’ll probably get answers like: • I expect Jesus to get me out of my tough situations • I expect Jesus to give me good advice on how to live my life • I expect Jesus to tell me what I need to do to get to earn my way to ...read more

    The emerging culture wants to see whether or not we as Christians have faith we live by, more than just talk about.

For the next 3 weeks, we are going to put some skin on the bones so to speak. There has been one verse that has ...read more

    This sermon but challenges us to think about how we are living as the people of God and how we might shake up our thinking, our relationships, and our communities of faith. . . not just for “shaking’s” sake, but because God is prompting us.

    Tonight our theme is REVERBERATIONS…what does it make you think of? Perhaps the younger people in your community who pump up the bass in your neighborhood and shake your windows with their Hip-hop grooves? Well, hopefully, our reflections on REVERBERATIONS will go deeper than that tonight...not ...read more
