    Esther Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 3, 2022

    Mordecai, Esther's uncle, offended a high court official called Haman, who decided to kill not only Mordecai but all the Jews in the Persian empire. Esther turned the tables on Mordecai. She pleaded with the King, and Haman was punished – hanged on the very gallows he had built for Mordecai.

    The story of Esther centers around Queen Vashti, King Ahasuerus, Esther, Mordecai, Haman, and the Jewish people. If you are not already familiar with these individuals, they have been briefly introduced to us in the following paragraphs. Who was Esther? 1. Queen Vashti disobeyed the drunken orders ...read more

    In the “flesh”… • When I am wronged I demand my rights In Jesus’ kingdom… • When I’m wronged, I am to relinquish my rights

    We live in a culture that seems to be increasingly focused on individual rights. In some ways that is not all that surprising since our country was founded, in large part, in order to protect the rights of the individual. Our founding documents contain many references to those rights: • The ...read more

    Living hope is a matter of looking ahead rather than looking around

    ENGAGE/TENSION In general, I tend to be a pretty optimistic person. But I’ve got to admit that it is getting harder and harder to be hopeful about life here on earth in the 21st century. Let’s face it, 2016 didn’t exactly get off to a great start: • This week, the stock ...read more

    Sometimes we are so burdened we can't even express words in our prayers. When you're praying if you don't know the words to say, don't worry. God understands sigh language.

    INTRODUCTION After a break for the holidays and the Treasure Truth series, we’re back in the Gospel According to Mark. I’m calling this series, “The reMARKable Power of Jesus.” What you don’t know can hurt you—or embarrass you. It’s important to understand what things mean. I found an actual text ...read more

    The Gospel And God's Wrath Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Apr 8, 2019
     | 7,591 views

    The gospel is the good news of Jesus that is the antidote of the bad news of God's wrath and judgment against sin. In Romans 1:18-32, Paul discusses why God's wrath is justified, and what happens to humanity when they reject God and God gives them up.

    A. The story is told of a street evangelist who was trying to get the attention of people passing by. 1. He spoke loudly, urging the people to flee from the wrath of God to come. 2. He roared, “I warn you, that there will be weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth!” 3. An older woman passing ...read more

     | 1,300 views

    Jesus went from the heights of glory to the depths of shame. He went from the wonders of heaven to the wickedness of earth. He went from exaltation to humiliation. He had experienced coronation in Heaven before Christmas only to experience the curse on this earth.

Maybe you’ve been praying for a prodigal, cheering on a spouse, or steadying a weary mind in the middle of the night. You’re here. And ...read more
