    Through his life, his teachings and his presence, Christ Jesus has given us the right tools to handle with ease every burden life can throw at us.

    Matthew 11: 16 – 19; 25 – 30 / Easy Yokes and Light Loads Intro: We live in a fast, instant kind of society. We want what we want and we want it right now!

    Who is Jesus

    Who is Jesus? If you are anything like me – at first blush the only part of our passage that is vaguely comprehensible is the end of the reading where Jesus says: 28"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am ...read more

    A Peculiar Person

    There was ano doubt that John the Baptist was a peculiar man in more ways than one. But those who follow is his proclamatorial footprints will be peculiar too.

    Passage: Matthew 11:7-19 Intro: It’s easy to develop a low view of ourselves as we live in the world. 1. when the response of the world is to despise us, ridicule our faith, reject the One we love, not unusual for us to wonder if we are who we are portrayed to be. 2. but tucked here in ...read more

    Why didn’t He intervene when I had that car accident, or when my friend died of cancer? How could He let something like that happen?" It’s kind of like this - "JESUS, I PLAYED MY OWN MUSIC. WHY DIDN’T YOU DANCE TO MY TUNE."

    Part 6 - Matthew 11:15-19 - WHY DON’T YOU DANCE TO MY TUNE! Rome, who is only 1 year old, picked up a plastic spade and began playing it, pretending it was a guitar. It has the right shape. Anything can become a guitar in his hands. He has seen guitars at Church and as he danced he made sounds ...read more

    In the Scriptures "Water" is often a symbol of .the "Word of God". It is important to understand that Wine often times in Jewish literature is a reference or a symbol of joy. Do you need to be filled anew, to be filled to the brim with joy? Updated August 2020.

     | 11,903 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

    Strength Through Humility

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jul 7, 2014
     | 6,621 views

    The world thinks humility is pious weakness, whereas the bible says it is strength through submission, in fact true humility results in power, and honour and glory and majesty and strength. Who would not want that?

    Genesis 24:34-38, 42-49, 58-67 Psalm 45: 11-18 Romans 7:15-25a Matthew 11:16-19, 25-30 “Please join me in my prayer.” Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of our hearts, be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, our strength, and our redeemer. Amen. (Ps. ...read more

    Where can we find true rest for our souls? Do we find true rest on a Sabbath day, in a promised land, or in Jesus and in eternity? Let’s look at what Jesus had to say about rest in Matthew 11:16-30.

    Come Unto Me: An Exposition Of Matthew 11:16-30

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Jun 27, 2020
     | 5,670 views

    Jesus' invitation to come to Him has an "or else" component to it.

    Come Unto Me: An Exposition of Matthew 11:16-30 The Gospel lectionary text selection for what is called Proper 9, seems at first to be quite odd. The selections are Matthew 11:16-20 and 11:25-30, leaving out what is between. The first selection talks about the people rejecting the message of both ...read more

    Though we're born into this world in bondage to sin, we have freedom in Christ Jesus our Lord.

    July 5, 2020 Hope Lutheran Church Pastor Mary Erickson Romans 7:15-25a; Matt. 11:16-19, 25-30 The Gift of Christ’s Freedom Last week I came upon this prayer by Henri Nouwen.

    Too Silly For A Funeral; Too Serious For A Party

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 2, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,808 views

    Christians must be aware of becoming hypercritical of divine work and of other believers, ascribing what is done as unworthy of Christ. To explore this situation, the message is a study of Jesus' censure of the generation in which He then lived.

    “Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force. ...read more

    The Wicked Generation

    John the Baptizer wasted no time in telling Herod that it was wrong for him to have his brother Phillip’s wife saying that it was not lawful. John went to prison for being the prophet God called him to be and not the puppet that Herod wanted him to be.

    THE WICKED GENERATION Text: Matthew 11:1 – 19, 25- 30 N. T. Wright once said that “… wicked people don’t like a message of judgment because they think the message is aimed at them, (and rightly so) while good people don’t like a message of mercy because they think (wrongly) that ...read more

     | 2,562 views

    Jesus gives us four good ways to measure our lives: 1. Have I rejected God's representatives? (vs. 12-19). 2. Have I repented? (vs. 20-24). 3. Have I received God's revelation? (vs. 25-26). 4. Do I have a relationship with God? (vs. 27).

    A Generation Of Spoiled Children

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 19, 2018
     | 6,346 views

    As a church body of believers separated to God we have rejected God’s call to repentance collectively just as Israel as a nation has rejected Jesus as Messiah. We have gotten comfortable with our sin. So much so we don’t even call it sin anymore.

    A Generation of Spoiled Children Matthew 11:16-30 Have you ever tried to please a group of children by suggesting they all pick out just one game or one activity to do together? Some of you may be dealing with this as part of your daily life and others may have to go back to your babysitting ...read more
