    When Jesus Calls My Name

    When Jesus called Mary’s name that first Easter morning, it made a tremendous impact on her life. Jesus still calls our name and it ought to impact our lives in a similar way.

    As we go through life, many different people call our name. And it’s amazing to me just how many different messages that can be conveyed to us, depending on just how people call our name: • When we’re growing up, our parents call our name. Sometimes that is done in a very calm, gentle, loving ...read more

    The disciples were disillusioned and disoriented after the crucifixion.

    I grew up in a family with four sisters and no brothers. There were a lot of downsides to this…which I won’t go into now. One upside, and maybe the only one, is that I had to have my own bedroom in the basement, along with my own bathroom. I loved to just go in my room and shut myself out from all ...read more

    I want us to look briefly at two worshipping women who shared the same name, but had different job descriptions: Mary, the mother of Jesus; and Mary Magdalene, who as far as we know, was not a mother.

    While it’s nearly impossible to spell out everything a mother does, this Motherhood Job Description hits the highlights. TITLE: Mother, Mom, Mama, Mommy. SUMMARY: Long term, team players needed, for challenging permanent work in an often chaotic environment. Candidates must possess excellent ...read more

    Ravi Zacharias’ book "Jesus Among other Gods" gave the idea for this Easter sermon. It looks at four gardens, Eden, the desert, Gethsemene, and the garden where the tomb was and relates each garden to a time in our lives.

    Four Gardens of Life Introduction: One of the things that I look forward to in the spring is planting our gardens. Leslie and I are starting to put away some money for plants. She is telling me some things that she would like to do with the flowers, and I have been telling her some things I ...read more

    Part of an adult Sunday school series on the Person of Christ.

    • THE RESURRCTION OF CHRIST WAS A PHYSICAL RESURRECTION. Some skeptics have tried to solve their dilemma of not being able to explain away the resurrection by suggesting it was a “spiritual resurrection.” Dr. Wilbur M.

    An Easter Sunday Sermon from 1991, based upon John 20:1-18.

    What is there to say on this on this Easter Day? There is an ancient liturgy of the Church, a saying from our grandparents in the faith, so to speak.
