    Every single one of these men - Judas, Peter, The Sanhedrin, believe that they are faithful, and they appear faithful to those around them. But appearing to be spiritual, appearing to be faithful is neither spiritual nor faithful, it only appears to be.

    Jesus, an innocent man, is arrested in an olive grove and now stands ready to be condemned to death – there is no doubt about the outcome. How did it all come to this? How did it come to this, that the most theologically adept men of the day sat ready to condemn an innocent man, they sat ready to ...read more

    We live in a mixed up world. People are so untrained in the Bible and mixed up about what a Christian is, that nearly anything can be labelled “Christian” and they’ll believe it. Let's look at what one is.

    BE AN EXAMPLE OF JESUS 1 Tim. 4:12, 15-16 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Sometimes being close isn’t good enough. Like Bill, who ordered a cord of firewood to be delivered for $100. 2. When the firewood was delivered, Bill got upset. “That’s not a full cord of wood,” Bill ...read more

    The purpose of Biblical fasting is to satisfy our hunger for God.

    This morning we’re going to address a topic that frankly doesn’t get as much attention in the church as it does in the outside world around us. Fasting has actually become quite popular in our culture, primarily for physical reasons like weight loss and health. In fact, this week I went ...read more

    The Politics Of Jesus

    Christians think they align with Jesus' views. Some are surprised, others offended. Jesus’ campaign sounds like a liberal utopia because we’re not ready to let go of hate, we’re not ready to trust in God and not in the law. We have to transcend hate and show the mercy we’ve been shown by God.

    There are only two shows that I’ve ever watched the entire series. One of which I still own on DVD and have watched the entire series 3 times. If there was any show that I’d love to see still running today it would be this one. I’d love to see how it would interpret and respond to the issues of our ...read more

    When you consider the influence of Jesus Christ upon human history, he is like the tail of a comet, which darts across the night sky. His life brings inspiration to art, science, medicine, government, and education.

    We begin a new series this morning in the Gospel of Luke but more on that in a few moments. For the next few moments I want to talk about our church and a personal challenge for you in 2013. That challenge is why I am and we are wearing these t-shirts today. I want us to think about the next twelve ...read more

    Jesus Uncut

    A preacher is very much like a traffic engineer. And the preachers of Jesus’ day were routing the traffic right off a washed-out bridge with no warning. For real love always stands against deception.

    While Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee asked him to dine with him, so he went in and reclined at table. The Pharisee was astonished to see that he did not first wash before dinner. And the Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside you are full of ...read more

    Sometimes we get so wrapped-up in what Jesus can do for us …when we really just-need to find Jesus!

    God continues to look for women and men like Mary and Joseph. People who will pursue obedience, whatever the cost. People who will trust God – even though the outcome seems unsure. God continues to raise up people for His purposes.

    When I first proposed doing this, I know that it struck a lot of you … well, probably all of you … as something odd … out of the ordinary. When it came time, you weren’t sure what to do. Do we put up our traditional Christmas decorations? And, again, I’m sure that you found my answer a bit odd … ...read more

    We can either choose to long for Jesus and end up rejoicing or long for “stuff” and end up weeping and mourning.

    This morning, as we continue our journey through Revelation, we’ll be covering all of chapter 18.
