    Throughout the Gospel of John you will find Jesus using simple, yet clever, analogies about wind, water, bread, wine, doors, shepherds, light, – etc. Each instance was a teaching moment - created by misunderstandings among His audience.

    August 2, 2009 “What You Talkin’ About, Jesus?” John 4:7-15 / John 3:1-9 A few years ago there was a situation comedy, Diff’rent Strokes, where two cute young black boys were living, as adopted brothers, in an upperclass white family, and invariably there would come a time in each ...read more

    Following Jesus can be difficult, but all who choose this path will be greatly rewarded in the end.

    Many people’s attitude about following Christ is “What can I get?” not “What can I give?” They view Christianity as only a free ticket to heaven. But what did Jesus teach about discipleship? Read Matthew 8:34-38. “If anyone would come after me” means “If anyone wants to be my disciple (in other ...read more

     | 2,965 views

    Some people treat the bible like a Smorgasbord, a Insurance Policy, a Seat Belt, or a Love Letter

  • Looking To 2010

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Dec 30, 2009
     | 4,009 views

    Our hearts should be glad to consider the possible return of Jesus in 2010. People were glad to recognize him as Messiah in 33A.D. I sense some of us may not be as excited about the Lords return as we should be. For some of us that excitement has cooled.

    Looking to 2010 Mark 11:1-11 Happy New Year! 2010, just writing the date reminds us of how quickly time is marching forward. We are into a new year and into a new decade of the new millennium. It is hard to believe that we are already this far into a new millennium. Looking back at 1999 there ...read more

     | 4,001 views

    The Master Carpenter now strips the tree of its branches and begins to peel away the bark. We must rid ourselves of the things that hinder and the sin that so easily entangles.

    Our theme for this Christmas season is The Carpenter’s Workshop. The Master Carpenter, Jesus, is busy working on His project – us, the Church, preparing himself a gift for his return. Last week we talked about how a tree needs to be felled in order to get to the wood. The Master ...read more

    based on 59 ratings
     | 71,891 views

    One of the names by which Christians are known is "Light.” Christians are supposed to be the light in this dark world. Christians are supposed to show the way to people who do not know the way. They are supposed to direct those who are in darkness

    Matthew 5:14-16 says, “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candle stick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your ...read more

    In Christ’s birth we find ours. When our hearts and hands are full from giving gifts to one another, let us remember the tiny Babe Who gave the greatest gifts of all! Christmas doesn't have to end.

     | 7,398 views

    The virtues of goodness and kindness do not come to us naturally and just like the other virtues of Jesus we need to be taught them. Imagine if you will two small children wanting the same toy at the same time. You get the point. We have to be taught.
