    This sermon explores the personal encounter of the disciples with the risen Christ, emphasizing His manifestation, their meeting, and the mystery of His miraculous appearance.

    Good morning, dear brothers and sisters in Christ. What a joy it is to gather together in His name, to share in the warmth of fellowship and the nourishment of His Word. We are here not by accident, but by divine appointment, called together to seek His face, to know His heart, and to be ...read more

    Thomas: My Favorite Apostle

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 31, 2022
     | 2,513 views

    The apostle Thomas gets the short end of the stick when we read about him and his "doubts" in the Gospel of John. He is more like you and I than we want to admit, and his story affirms it.

    When we read of where Jesus chose the Twelve men who would be known as the Apostles, we need to step back for a moment and realize that these men were ordinary working -class, salt-of-the-earth, rough around the edge individuals who had jobs ranging from catching fish to collecting taxes to a ...read more

    Doubting Thomas

     | 9,281 views

    Thomas helps us to understand what Jesus was teaching His disciples during His post resurrection appearances. Those who loved him on the earth had to learn to live without the physical appearance of Christ - the actual seeing, touching, and hearing him.

    Doubting Thomas John 20:24-31 "Doubting Thomas." refers to one of the disciples of Jesus who is often associated with one word: doubting. He is seen as a natural pessimist, a man very liable to take the despondent hopeless view of the future and see the darker side of everything. . ...read more

    Little Chunks Of Doubt

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 17, 2022
     | 1,106 views

    Often what we perceive as doubt is not really that severe. We experience times in which faith in Christ seems overwhelmingly demanding.

    We may cluck our tongues and roll our eyes at Thomas in this snippet from John’s Gospel. “How can the unanimous testimony,” we wonder, “of those who saw Jesus that Easter evening still leave Thomas, absent without leave then, in doubt of the Resurrection?” At first glance he just looks irreparably ...read more

    "fear"

    A sermon about overcoming fear through the Risen Christ.

    “Fear” John 20:19-31 Our Gospel Lesson this morning begins on the evening of Easter. The doors are shut; they are “locked for fear of the Jewish leaders.” And this is understandable. The disciples were, after-all, followers of this Man who the Jewish leaders hated—hated enough for them to ...read more

    A Breath Of Fresh Air

    Life can knock the wind out of us. Jesus shows up in those closed in places where we hide to breathe fresh Spirit into us to empower us to go on living into the mission He has called us into.

    SERMON TITLE: A Breath of Fresh Air TEXT: John 20:19-29 (NRSV) I. INTRODUCTION: Have you ever got the wind knocked out of you? Maybe as a child, you fell on the playground, or you were somehow hit in the stomach and couldn’t breathe. It is terrifying in those moments when it seems like time stands ...read more

    Just like Thomas, our doubt can show how close we are to God; we can be transformed by Jesus in our doubt.

    INTRODUCTION • Today we will conclude our four-week series concerning the issue of dealing with doubt. • We have covered the fact that we can go through seasons of doubt; and that our expectations can lead to doubt. • Last week we examined how we can struggle to believe because what we see in ...read more

    For thirteen weeks we traced God's I AM from the burning bush to Bethlehem. Tonight we face the ultimate claim: Jesus declared Himself eternal God. Your response determines everything.

    Waiting To See

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Aug 19, 2023
     | 1,234 views

    It is not reasonable for us, like Thomas, to insist on seeing Jesus' wounds for ourselves before we believe; We have clouds of witnesses whose lives proclaim the truth of their words. What more do we need?

    Not too long ago I had some serious computer problems. I took my printer in to be repaired only to be told that it was a software problem.

    Beyond A Reasonable Doubt

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Aug 19, 2023
     | 1,727 views

    At first the disciples doubted. But when faced with the evidence, they weighed it, tested it, and then acted upon it. Their verdict has stood the test of time. And the grounds on which they stood are the same grounds upon which we can stand.

    Why do you suppose is it that, faced with the same data, some people interpret it one way and some people interpret it another? You have only to look at the George Floyd riots – and the other ones later that year - to know that. Not even exhaustive investigations convince people whose minds are ...read more

    Jesus Defends His Divinity

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 27, 2022
     | 1,579 views

    Shortly after Jesus healed the crippled man at the pool of Bethsaida (John 5:1-15), He was confronted by the religious officials who wanted Him dead for saying that God was His Father, making Himself equal withe God. Jesus responded with facts to back up His claim.

    If there was an apt description of the attitude of the Pharisees towards the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ (John 5:18), it is this, "There are none so blind as those who will not see". All throughout this account of the Lord's life and work and in the other Gospels as ...read more
