    The real purpose of Christmas is that of sacrifice; Jesus, the Living Word, sacrificed everything so that we could have eternal life.

    Vision comes from clearly seeing what God has planned from the foundation of the world in Jesus. He calls us to develop fully devoted followers, those that do what He says because they love Him. We must have eyes only for Jesus if we are to succeed.

    Intro: The entire message of Hebrews seems to be that there is something better. What we find is that faith in Jesus doesn’t take away from our lives actually it brings better things. As I like to say, “The longer you know Jesus the gooder life gets.” Hebrews is a letter ...read more

    Just think, the cross was a place of execution. It was therefore considered a place of defeat---the final word for the executed and a warning from those who did the executing.

    WIN BY LOSING Text: I Corinthians 1:18 -25 1 Corinthians 1:18-31  For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.  (19)  For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the ...read more

    As the disciples prepared for the Passover meal, they had no idea what was soon to happen. The Lamb of God had come to redeem humanity, and most of the Jewish people were completely unaware.

    The Last Supper (Part 1) Mark 14: 12-26 Our text today reveals one of the most intimate moments our Lord had with His disciples. It records their last meal together, and the intense emotion experienced on that faithful evening. While the disciples were unaware of the enormity of this moment, Jesus ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 29,246 views

    Love is an essential character trait for the believer. The Lord loved us, so we are expected to love one another. This is easy preaching, but often a difficult practice. John reveals great truth regarding the love we should possess.

    Love Lifted Me 1 John 4: 11-16 John 13:34-35 – A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. [35] By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. There can be no doubt that Jesus loved ...read more

    Just before the Passion of Christ, Mark tells us a story of extravagant love shown to Jesus by Mary who models for us the kind of love we should show to our Savior.

    A sermon that considers love as an antidote to the sin of murder that can embed itself in our hearts

    The Bible reading Exodus 20 1-22 Thou shalt not kill. How come the brief statements are sometimes the most profound? Words like _ I have a dream – For God so loved the world and – All blacks - all conjure up images for us. Thou shalt not kill evokes for us an unlikely to becrossed ...read more

     | 10,000 views

    The friendship of David and Joshua is one of the closest in the Bible. From it, we learn that true friends love as they love themselves, sacrifice for the good of the other, and protect one another. If you want a friend, be a friend!

    1 Samuel 17:57-18:4 Best Friends Forever Have you ever had a BFF? A “best friend forever?” Or better yet, a BFFL? A “best friend for life?” Or in short form, a “bestie?” Someone who knows you better than you know yourself? I saw a quote this week: “We are going to be best friends forever... ...read more
