Candyman Or Doctor? Who Are You Looking For?

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Oct 20, 2024

Jesus travels to Galilee and is greeted enthusiastically. However the Greeting is only with the hope of a great show, as those who he comes to preach to only want to see signs and wonders, and not the Savior from Sin.

The Doctor or the Candyman I was listening to someone talk about elections and democracy, and he dug up a great quote from the past. And by the past, I mean like 2500 years ago. Ancient Athens was the first democracy we know of, and Socrates, the smartest man of his time, hated the idea. This was ...read more

Don't Shoot The Messenger

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Jul 19, 2021

Jeremiah was a major prophet in the Old Testament. He was sent to wake up the people of God. The children of Israel were falling away from the Lord God. They began to worship false gods, so the Lord sent Jeremiah to preach a message of repentance and to preach a message of the law.

In Matthew 18:21 we see that Peter asks Jesus the question “Lord how often should I forgive someone who sins against me? Seven times?” “No not seven times”, Jesus replied, but seventy times seven!” I can just see the thought bubble above Peters head “Oh great, not only do I have to forgive my ...read more

Journey From Death To Life (Part 2) Series

Contributed by Brian Williams on Mar 28, 2023

Peter’s brokenness taught him a great lesson about the Lord’s love, faithfulness, forgiveness, and acceptance. Peter had his own journey from death to life. He realized he could not follow Jesus in his own strength. This realization kept him humble and dependent on Jesus.

Last Sunday we spoke about Jesus in the Valley of Kidron, then in the Garden of Gethsemane, and how the whole time He was in God’s will in His journey from death to life. We are coming to the end of Jesus’ earthly journey in the book of John and can see that these last few hours would be the most ...read more
