    Seeing is not always believing. The Jews who witnessed Jesus' miracle of feeding the 5,000 did not understand the truth about Jesus-that He was the manna from heaven in the flesh.

    "Believing “Out of Yourself” and Into Christ:" John 6:22-34 John 6 contains 71 verses and includes 2 days in the ministry of Jesus. After Jesus fed the 5,000, He sent His disciples out ahead of Him while He spent time alone with His Father. Last week we had the privilege of ...read more

    True Biblical knowledge married to a living spiritual relationship with Jesus leads to new creation behavior. Anger is an emotion given by God to respond to injustice and unrighteousness. Learn in this sermon to use anger biblically.

    Intro: If you remember last week one of the most important things we can do is saturate our minds with God’s word. We do this so that the Holy Spirit can plant it deeply within our minds and give us something of the Spirit to think about. We don’t learn more of the Bible which ...read more

    A crisis is a test. It reveals our attitude towards God and faith in Him. What is the posture of your heart?

    Saul showed an unwillingness to trust God. This sounds odd at first. Why would anyone not trust God? • If we think of our own experience, then we can understand. It could be pride (we think we know best), freedom (I like to do what I like), pleasure (I want some fun), or fear (sacrifices ...read more

    When the people of Judah and Jerusalem were in exile in Babylon there were false prophets who professed to be speaking for the Lord but they were just telling the people what they wanted to hear. These false prophets exist today. Warn your people!

    The story is Elijah's proposed show-down between God and Baal at Mount Carmel. God doesn't want just part of us. He wants all of us, and he will tolerate no substitute, because he knows nothing else will satisfy in his place.

    1 Kings 18:20-39 When You Really Need God to Show Up Today’s story might be called, “The Great Show-down at Mount Carmel.” It is an ultimate, winner-takes-all kind of challenge, Yahweh God vs. Baal. Which one is real? Which one will come through for his people? But why all the ...read more
