Easter Sermon On Peter

Contributed by Ava Ch on May 25, 2025

Resurrection hope meets us in our wandering and regret, assuring us that no failure is final when grace rolls the stone away.

Introduction Christ is risen! He is risen indeed. Friends, we gather on this Easter morning in the light of resurrection, but many of us carry shadows too. The shadows of the past year. The shadows of our regrets. And if we’re honest, some of us arrive like Peter—with hearts that have wandered, ...read more

The Mount Of Olives – The Priority Of The Great Commission (12/12) Series

Contributed by Eduardo (Eddie) Fernandes on Oct 12, 2020

The urgent task and maximum priority of the Church is the fulfillment of our Lord’s final instruction. The Way of the Cross does not end at the crucifixion or with the resurrection. It ends 50 days after Passover with the Great Commission. We bleed evangelism.

Message by Eddie Fernandes (Click series title) Introduction We end a 12-week journey today. We have been in a 3-month study on the Stations of the Cross. We did not follow the traditional 14 stations. We will also not end at Calvary, as most traditions do. Let me remind you of the 11 places we ...read more

The Field Manual Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 21, 2009

Is the Bible really "truth"? Jesus said it was, but there are people who problems with that. How do we answer their objections?

Stand Firm And Work Hard Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Apr 16, 2022

'Stand firm and work hard' might seem a very strange Easter message. But it's Paul's key message in 1 Corinthians 15 - the longest passage on the resurrection in the Bible. The resurrection gives us hope - and that hope gives us reason to stand firm and work hard.

Easter Sunday is the day when we celebrate the fact that God raised Jesus from death. When I say WE celebrate the fact that God raised Jesus from the dead, I mean, WE IN THIS CHURCH celebrate it. Clearly, a lot of other people DON'T celebrate it. A few years ago the Daily Telegraph conducted ...read more

Transfiguration

Contributed by James Jerpseth on Feb 28, 2001

The word Transfiguration is another way to say transformed. We too have been transformed by the power of hte resurrection and hte love of Jesus.

One of my favorite parts of confirmation is the day we spend in the Church going over the special vocabulary that we have in the Church world. It is a funny thing that we have a different "Churchy" name for everything that we would otherwise call by its normal or non-churchy name. For example, ...read more

Please Explain Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Aug 24, 2004

The Ethiopian Eunuch didn’t understand the Bible until someone explained it to him. The whole Bible points to Jesus’ life death and resurrection.

In a few minutes we’ll say the creed, as we do most weeks, and we’ll repeat these words almost without thinking: "For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again - in accordance with the Scriptures." I wonder whether we ever stop ...read more
