     | 7,809 views

    A look at Jesus is asking us to identify with in the Parable of the Good Samaritan. The critical question is, can we be merciful without remaining connected to our own need for mercy?

I am sure you guys know the story, Jesus rides a young colt into Jerusalem and the Passover crowd goes wild. They lay their coats and palm fronds onto the street to cover his path and the cried Hosanna to ...read more

     | 7,524 views

    This second part of the short 2 part series, looks at the state of the Church in every town and city, and how this current situation works against genuine New Testament order and results in pastoral ministry.

    God’s Order and Assignment for Pastors (Part II) Eric J. Hanson In my previous message, I taught about the nature of the equipping gift of pastor. • First of all we learned that the word pastor means shepherd. • I brought out the important fact that in God’s plan, there ...read more

    Paul, like Jesus, tells us to love everyone, even those who irritate us. We should practice love in action because 1) God tells us to do so, and 2) Jesus is coming soon.

    Change, if the world is not the way it needs to be---what is our response

    One of the pressing questions of our day, or any day, is how do we make lasting social change which reflects the values of God’s Kingdom. The short answer for many is the ballot box.

    The Innkeeper And His Guests Missed The First Advent Series

    based on 2 ratings
     | 9,136 views

    It would be tragic to leave Jesus out of Christmas 2021 because I am too busy or because I am so absorbed in my own little world. That’s what happened the First Christmas, and that same time have been happening in many homes Christmas after Christmas.

    INTRODUCTION CUSTOM BLOCK Advent means the arrival; the appearance and that term is usually associated with someone who is notable. So, it is fair to say that those who lived in the times of the Old Testament were looking for the Advent (the coming, the appearance) of Christ. In fact, Advent is not ...read more

    Advent/Christmas Sermon, specifically on the subject of God's love.

    John 3:16, Romans 5:8 As we are in the final Advent Sunday before Christmas, it makes sense the topic is love. The gospel is rooted in love (John 3:16). In fact the whole Bible is; that's really all the Bible is, it's a love-letter from God. Tragically, some abuse it, weaponize it to ...read more

    So, let us keep a firm grip on the faith. Jesus alone will put us together and on our feet for good. He gets the last word; yes, He does. He will have us put together and on our feet for good

    The first word that came from the mouth of God when we were created was the word “good!” The serpent’s words however was “you shall be like God” on Adam and Eve which still reverberates on us, Christians of today. He wants us to believe on God and be like God.... to live independently from God. It ...read more

    We need to be made ready, by the power of the holy spirit, to suffer persecution with grace and humility. Jesus is, and will always be, the greatest example in history of denying his own rights and giving up his own power.
