    This is the second in a series of Messages based on Luke 4:14-21 and Isaiah 61:1-4 which equates the mission of the Church with the mission of Jesus as He states it in Luke 4:18-19.

    His Mission and Ours: To Preach and to Heal --Luke 4:14-21 and Isaiah 61:1-4 As I shared last week, I am convinced that Jesus through this series of messages “His Mission and Ours” is beginning to form in my heart His vision of ministry for Trinity United Methodist Church.

    I’ve met folks who think that if Jesus walked among us today like he did back in Galilee, we’d be so much better off in our Christianity. How could we ignore him, they ask, if he was right here in front of us? Judging from the people who were right in front of him a couple thousand years ago, it ...read more

     | 1,503 views

    The church is not invulnerable to the possibility of corruption. The church human leaders therefore corruption will exist. Learn to recognize it because then you can stop it.

    The Pharisees started as a sect with a noble and perhaps a divine purpose. They were organized to resist the Hellenization of the Holy Land. The Seleucids wanted to change Galilee and Judah into a paradise of Greek Hellenism. The Pharisee sect was formed in 168 B.C.E. to combat this infringement on ...read more

    Without religious liberty, there can be no true worship of God.

    “Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.” “You were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.” Religious liberty is not simply an ecclesiastical truth debated ...read more

    Jesus was not a candidate for the most popular award in his class. No wonder they nailed him to a tree.

    Sermon for Luke 14:7-14 September 2nd 2007 Last week I mentioned one of the greatest privileges of being a pastor is the opportunity to preside over Word and Sacrament.
