    The Family Business

    Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Feb 21, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,038 views

    We don’t know very much about Jesus’ process of maturation. The Gospels are rather silent about his growing up years, with Matthew being the only other canonical gospel that even offers a birth narrative, and he is silent on the years between birth and baptism.

    TITLE: THE FAMILY BUSINESS SCRIPTURE: ST. LUKE 2:49 It was just two months ago we gathered here in the sanctuary as we celebrated the birth of our Lord and Savior. We had special programs like Candlelight Service, attended Christmas Sing Along over at Macedonia Baptist Church, and of course ...read more

    This message is the introduction to my series titled "Stronghold Beliefs." In Part 1 I introduce the concept of stronghold beliefs and why they are important. I also discuss the first stronghold beliefs that all Christians should share.

    Stronghold Beliefs Part 1 Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 10:3-5; Luke 2:41-50; John 4:34; 5:19 Last week, in my Memorial Day message, I shared with you what takes place when a new recruit enters the military.

    Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph: Don't Lose Your Footing

    Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph: Our First Reading says, “a mother’s authority he confirms over her sons.” I read recently a humorous story about a young man who on his graduation from high school was chosen to give the commencement speech.

    The call of God is the greatest privilege granted us.

    In My Father’s House Luke 2:41-52 I am sure many of us have wondered about Jesus’ early life and upbringing. Matthew leaves the child Jesus after his parents returned to Nazareth and picks Him back up more than 25 years later. Mark doesn’t pick up the story until Jesus came to John for Baptism. ...read more

    Growing With Jesus

    Jesus had to submit himself to his parents in order to grow up and mature in wisdom and understanding before he could step out into ministry. Should we not humble ourselves, submit to leaders over us and grow up spiritually, emptying ourselves of pride before we attempt to minister to others.

    Growing with Jesus Sunday, December 30, 2019 By Rev. James May From the time of Jesus’ birth to his appearance at the Jordan River to be baptized by John the Baptist, little is known about Jesus’ childhood and growing up. The only passage that tells us much of anything is found in the 2nd ...read more

    Why does Jesus answer Mary so?

    My Hour Has not Yet Come: An Exposition of John 2:1-12. On the surface, this passage is a cute story which demonstrates the compassion Mary and Jesus had on a bridegroom and his family when they ran out of wine at a wedding feast. When it is preached this way, emphasis is placed upon Mary’s ...read more

    Jerusalem Alone Series

    The story of a 12 year-old boy left behind in Jerusalem by his parents? Sound familiar? Almost sounds like a Christmas classic movie! Not exactly. This is the story of the Son of God, knowing who he was and why he was here.

    As I read through the account from Luke 2 which you heard this morning of how Jesus was left behind by his parents in Jerusalem, I couldn’t help but think of what has become classic Christmas movie, “Home Alone.” If you’re not familiar with the movie, it’s about a boy around the age of 10-12 ...read more

    Joseph was an Israelite and he kept the law, and Jesus did too. Therefore, Luke gives us this incident from the “silent years” of Jesus’ life.

    Harmony of the Gospels -4 BC- Nazareth Childhood of Jesus Luke 2:40, 51 God has chosen not to tell us much about Jesus, until He begins His ministry at about thirty years of age. We are only given a couple of events from those early years, but I believe that they were important to Him. Those ...read more

    Honoring Your Mother

    Contributed by Chris Cuthbertson on May 10, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 14,749 views

    The Fifth Commandment reads, “Honor your father and your mother.” To honor simply means to value, to respect, to pay tribute to. That responsibility to honor our mothers begins when we're a child and continues until the day we die.

    Mother’s Day is really important to Mothers. In case you haven’t caught on by now, let me repeat that for you, Mother’s Day is a big deal to almost every mother. Even the most phlegmatic, laid back, understanding mother expects to be honored today with special attention. If you stop and think ...read more
