    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Jan 14, 2014
     | 6,620 views

    The Bible compares us to sheep. We all tend to wander and need a Shepherd. As sheep in God's pasture, choose well who you listen to and follow. The Good Shepherd leads us faithfully, firmly, yet lovingly.

    Lessons from the Sheep Pen Intro: [Play youtube clip of crazy sheep sounds] -Yes, the Bible really does compare us to sheep. But as crazy as what you’ve just heard sounds, it is nothing compared to the craziness that comes from people, whether out of their mouths or out of their lives. 1. ...read more

    Jesus weeps over Jerusalem and the 2 million Jewish people who were gathered there that day. They didn’t get it! They didn’t understand who God was! They didn’t know His plan. They did not recognize that God Himself was among them, offering them peace.

    The Day the King Cried Intro: Four days before Passover, the people of Israel were required to present their lambs to the priest for inspection. This was known as Inspection Day. The law of Moses prohibited Israelites from bringing a lamb from very far away, because an unblemished lamb was ...read more

    Life itself is a series of tests. The moment we die or we are raptured, our days of sharing Jesus with others is over, and the testing is over as well. Are you ready to put your life's pencil down?

    Put Your Pencils Down When we were in school we all had to take exams. Call them what you want, quizzes, tests, finals, exams. But the really big, stressful tests were the timed tests.

    I believe Jesus is drawing our attention to the father and his compassion and joy in order to give us a a deeper understanding of the nature of God and His Kingdom; of our calling to be instruments of His life-giving compassion, and to share in His joy.

    We heard in today’s Gospel reading the Parable of the Prodigal Son, and I am sure most of us have read and heard it numerous times. And we all perhaps have lost count of the sermons we have heard on this parable. You may be wondering what on earth I can say on this that is new or unique. I ...read more

    A sermon for a "Patriot Sunday" together with a "Communion Sunday". Without the courage to sacrifice, there can be no life.

    Last Monday was a day of remembering. The only problem is that too many people have forgotten. Amid the tweets & twitters, the video games, and shopping for school, too many Americans forget that, without the sacrifices of our military, we might not even have a school or church to go to. So, I ...read more

    Dealing with a number of issues at EBC led me to a series by Pastor Jerry Shirley which God has graciously allowed me to revise and use to speak to our congregation.

    The Price of Pentecost, pt. 2 Acts 1:12-14 The early church had none of the things we seem to think are so essential for success today like: Buildings…money…staff…internet and programs. So why were they so successful? The reason is that they had the ONE thing many churches today ...read more
