    The Gospel According To Thorns

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Jul 22, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 596 views

    The profound meaning we find in looking at thorns is that the crown of thorns that was thrust upon Jesus’ head was a deliberate symbol of Him taking on our sin. Innocent Jesus Christ took on our sin onto Himself and paid for it. It’s all right there in the thorns.

    THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO THORNS VARIOUS PASSAGES #thorns INTRODUCTION Every week when I mow my yard I come around a particular large bush that was planted around my propane tank I just get shredded on whatever arm and leg that happens to be on the inside as I try to mow around it.

    Trusting Jesus in life’s storms means refusing to panic, fixing our eyes on Him, and finding courage and peace in His presence above our fears.

    If you’ve ever stood in a kitchen at midnight staring at a stack of bills, or sat in a hospital parking lot and felt your heart pound, you know what it is to feel like a thin boat on a thick sea. The wind rises, the waves talk loud, and worries whip across the surface of the soul like whitecaps on ...read more

    Jesus meets our deepest needs with forgiveness and healing, responding to faith—both ours and others’—with love greater than we can imagine.

    If you listen closely, you can almost hear the shuffle of sandals and the rustle of robes in that little house in Capernaum. The room is stuffed shoulder-to-shoulder with people who showed up hungry for more than bread. They want words that mend, a voice that understands, a touch that makes all ...read more

    Jesus, the Good Shepherd, personally calls us by name, offering true life, guidance, and security amid life’s noise and distractions.

    Some weeks feel like standing in a crowded barn. So many voices. So much noise. Phones buzz. News churns. Deadlines demand. You find yourself wondering, Does anyone hear me? Does anyone know my name? The pages of John 10 open like a quiet pasture on a loud day. They whisper, Yes. The Shepherd does. ...read more

    The sermon encourages steadfast obedience and faithful confession of Jesus despite spiritual opposition, assuring believers their perseverance matters and is empowered by Christ’s victory.

    If you’ve ever felt the sting of being misunderstood for loving Jesus, if you’ve ever sensed a shadow trying to smother your song, you’re in good company. The Bible is honest about that ache. It doesn’t gloss over the grit. It names the Enemy. It speaks of a dragon. It recognizes that there is ...read more

    Most of us know the look of a crowded calendar and a crowded heart. The inbox pings, the bills stack, the decisions loom.

    Jesus offers his own unshakeable peace to calm our anxious hearts, inviting us to trust his presence instead of giving in to fear or panic.

    Some days the headlines hit like hail on a tin roof. Bills stack up, calendars crowd in, and our hearts hum with hurry.

    True worship begins with surrender at God’s altar, where we lay down our lives and receive grace through Christ’s ultimate sacrifice.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile that hides the tired places of the soul. Some of us carried questions that feel too heavy to say out loud.

    True satisfaction comes not from physical needs but from seeking God through prayer and His Word, which alone nourishes and sustains our deepest hunger.

    There’s a kind of hunger that a full pantry can’t fix. You know the feeling. You stand in front of an open refrigerator—food everywhere—yet your soul still feels thin. Our bodies crave calories; our hearts crave a word from God. In a world of buzzing phones and bulging schedules, the deepest ache ...read more
