    Thomas, one of the twelve, who was called the Twin, wasn’t with them when Jesus came. So the other disciples kept telling him, "We have seen the Lord!" But he told them, "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands, put my finger into them, and put my hand i

    We’re in John chapter 20 this morning - the familiar story of ‘doubting Thomas’ - and, as I’ve noted many times before, this is one of those few passages in the Bible that the church in her wisdom suggests that we should read every year at this time (rather than every three years, which is the ...read more

    Note: This is a study from the book 12 Ordinary Men by John McArthur an excellent book.

    In the bible leprosy is a picture of sin; even though there has been many diseases that have been kept under control because of modem medical advances, an estimated ten million people around the world is said to have leprosy.

    Luke 5:12-15 JESUS MAKES A LEPER WHOLE 12-01-12 Today I want to bring a few thoughts to do with leprosy; let me say that Leprosy is still around in many countries even today, mainly in third world countries. Even though there has been many diseases that have ...read more

  • King Of The Jews Series

     | 4,472 views

    Using the title King of the Jews, was a title which causes conflict and puts people in a place where their identification with Jesus brings mockery, disparagement and even persecution.

    Message Matthew 2:2 Name Above All Names - King of the Jews Through the Advent period we have been looking at the importance of the different names of Jesus. Specifically the different names that appear in the New Testament from before he was born to the time when He goes to Egypt. The Word Son ...read more

     | 9,599 views

    Having taught the disciples to pray that the Father would send forth laborers into the harvest, Jesus commissioned them to serve in the harvest, essential using them as an answer to their prayers.

    Commissioned to Serve Matthew 10: 5-8 Today I want to begin a series focused on Jesus sending the twelve out to labor in ministry. Up until this point, Jesus had ministered alone. Granted, the disciples were continually with Him, and crowds were normally around, but these were all observers or ...read more

  • Conditioned To Serve Series

     | 6,402 views

    Prior to sending the disciples out in ministry, Jesus sought to prepare them for the task ahead. He did not promise it would be easy, but He did promise to provide for them. We share the same promises. Service isn't always easy, but the Lord is faithful to provide.

    Conditioned to Serve Matthew 10: 9-15 As we continue to examine the instructions Jesus gave the disciples prior to sending them out to share their faith, we discover additional benefit for our lives and witness as well. While these were sent solely to the house of Israel, prior to Jesus’ death and ...read more

    No matter where we are in life Jesus is able to see what we can become.

    “Transformed” Mark 5:1-20 Jesus and His disciples got in a boat and crossed the lake to the region of the Gerasenes. In doing this, Jesus was taking His ministry into non-Jewish or Gentile territory. The biggest clue to this is that the people raised pigs and Jews wouldn’t have had anything to ...read more

     | 8,854 views

    Why did Jesus' disciples desert Him in His hour of need?

    As Jesus hung on the cross, He saw the soldiers who had dismissed Him, the Romans who had tortured Him, and His own people who had rejected Him. But perhaps the response most troubling was that of His closest followers. With the exception of John, His disciples deserted Him. In His greatest hour of ...read more
