    What do you think would happen, if Jesus Himself would be looking for someone?

    “Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and having found him he said, ’Do you believe in the Son of Man?’ He answered, ’And who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?’ Jesus said to him, ’You have seen him, and it is he who is speaking to you.’ He said, ‘Lord, I believe,’ ...read more

    Ask, Seek, Knock

    Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened. Does this mean Jesus is our genie in a bottle? Can I ask for anything I want and Jesus will just give it to me? There's much to understand about what Jesus said here.

    ASK, SEEK, KNOCK Matt. 7:7-12 1) Ask, Seek, Knock (7-8). Here we see three different words three different meanings. I think this illustrates a process; like a chain of events if you will. As the Fourfold gospel commentary puts it, “Asking is a simple use of voice, seeking is a motion of the ...read more

    Jesus seeks and saves the lost, transforming their lives from being unjust to living righteously, and we are called to follow his example by building relationships with others and experiencing salvation in our daily lives.

    Today, we're going to talk about a story from the Bible that shows us how Jesus can change our lives. It's about a guy named Zacchaeus, who was a tax collector and not very popular because of it. But when he met Jesus, everything changed. What I want you to walk away from this with is that Jesus ...read more

    Jeremiah’s message to seek the welfare of the city applies to the church’s urban setting of drugs, violence, and alienation.

    The Fog - Hide And Seek Series

     | 1,811 views

    The fog has rolled into western culture and choked out intimacy with God. The fog hinders and blocks us from being in an intimate relationship with God. The fog drives us to choose to hide from God rather than seek out His presence! But Jesus is seeking us out even in the fog!

    The Fog Chapter 4 - “Hide and Seek?” Illustration: Have you ever played Hide and Seek – I have with my grandkids – Deklan is the funniest because where he hides is usually in the same place and if you listen you can hear him singing – he loves to sing – at our summer blast I put him on the ponies, ...read more
