    Fifth Sunday of Lent – Year C Readings

    A rusty old shield one day prayed, “O sun, illumine me"; and the sun answered, “First, polish yourself." Jesus told them, “Let the one among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” Apparently, each of the Pharisees was weighing in his mind the risk of pursuing his ...read more

    This parable got people listening to Jesus - as always. There was a twist for his hearers, and for us. Will we accept Gods invitation or will we make excuses?

    For the second week in a row the subject of food appears in our Bible reading. Last week we thought about Jesus sending out teams of two into the local towns and places that he was about to go (Luke 10:1). His teams were instructed to accept the hospitality of food and drink and shelter they were ...read more

    The Church at Work with the Spirit Acts 3:1-26 A. A Miracle of Healing Some weeks – maybe up to 3 months – after Pentecost, Peter and John go up to the Temple for the 3 PM prayer time, and encounter a man born lame.

    "The Might Of The Widow's Mite"

    based on 21 ratings
     | 7,841 views

    I love people who overcome excuses. If anyone had a reason not to “give,” it was this woman. The widow’s might… she shuts down everyone else’s excuse!

    Title: “The Widow’s Might” Introduction: Jesus had just warned the people about the leaven of the Pharisees. They looked religious on outward appearance, but God looks upon the heart of a man. Thus our text begins. Here the widow woman is used by Christ to illustrate the kind of Christian that ...read more

    We long for revival, but revival seems to be delayed. Contemporary Christians must "break up the fallow ground" if we will ever experience revival.

    “From the days of Gibeah, you have sinned, O Israel; there they have continued. Shall not the war against the unjust overtake them in Gibeah? When I please, I will discipline them, and nations shall be gathered against them when they are bound up for their double iniquity. “Ephraim was a ...read more

     | 9,799 views

    This message challenges the doctrine, the belief, that God is responsible for birth defects. It also examines the question "Do children come from God?"

    I have three children. At each of their births, my wife did what mothers tend to do – she held their hands and feet and gently rubbed them. I now know what she was doing. She was counting fingers and toes. And we always thanked God that He blessed us with healthy, normal children. A few years ago ...read more
