    In feeding the 5,000, Jesus sets a pattern for his disciples’ future ministry.

    Feeding the 5,000 Jesus’ miracles are commonly understood to prove his divinity. And without a doubt many of the miracles that Jesus performed were signs intended to validate his identity and his mission. We can think, for example, of the first miracles recorded in Mark’s gospel. They were ...read more

    Sometimes reading the Bible can be difficult. Why should we even read it? If if we convince ourselves to open it, where do we start.

    ***Open the time with all the lights out and the room completely dark. Begin to lightly toss stones up front so that the thud can be heard by the group*** The first five books of the Old Testament are called the Torah which is what the Jews look to as their Bible. The Hebrew word torah meant ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,902 views

    While judgment, salvation, discipleship, and the kingdom are elements of this story, this parable is about wealth. Jesus is concerned with the neglect of the poor because people are selfish with their wealth.

    The Parables of Jesus The Rich Man and Lazarus Luke 16:19-31 July 12, 2009 Now we turn to the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. It is true that this is parable about discipleship as well as the future kingdom. But it is a parable specifically about money. How discipleship impacts our use of our ...read more

    We must learn to take God at His Word and go forward with the task that He has laid on our heart.....even though we see no way in which we can go forward.

    According to our passage, John says that this healing of the nobleman’s son was the second sign of Jesus. It was further testimony to the fact that Jesus was the Son of God. It is quite obvious that Jesus is the star of the story. But, I want you to look with me tonight... not at the star of the ...read more

    The object of faith will determine whether we experience God. Do we put our faith in the bank account or in the creator of wealth?

     | 9,419 views

    One of the most difficult teaching (Yet true) teachings of Jesus concerns the "eye of the needle". While this is not a theological exegesis of the text, this message speaks to practical truths found in this text.

    The Principle of “The Eye of the Needle” Luke 18:18-30 * "How hard it is for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God! For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God." These are the words of Jesus as recorded for 3 of ...read more

    “A New Way Forward” Mark 6:30-44 Jesus liked to eat. The disciples of John the Baptist noticed this enough to ask Jesus why He didn’t fast.
