    Eating With Sinners

    Contributed by Anthony Zibolski on May 1, 2018
     | 6,819 views

    Jesus called His disciples to sit and eat and be a part of everyone's life including sinners and that made the religious people nervous and anxious. Follow me is the two words given to Levi and the same two words given to us.

    Eating with sinners Luke 5:27-5:32 Luke 5:27-5:32 Prayer- Introduction- We live in a day and age of un-surety. Un-surety that you may put your shoes on in the morning and the undertaker may take them off at the end of the day. Bad things happen to good people everyday. God never promised ...read more

    Jesus didn't stop with teaching about the freedom that leads to bondage; He also spoke of a bondage that leads to freedom.. A true disciple is one who has renounced his or her way to follow the way of Christ.

    Our lives can feel like those of the disciples in the boat, battling headwinds where we barely make any headway. But Jesus will come to us across impossible circumstances. His presence strengthens our hearts.

    August 9, 2020 Rev. Mary Erickson Hope Lutheran Church Matthew 14:22-33 When the Way Is Long and Hard Friends, may grace and peace be yours in abundance in the knowledge of God and Christ Jesus our Lord.

    What To Expect Leading Up To Jesus' Return?

    Who is winning? Churches stand empty or partially filled as compared to last year. How does Jesus expect us to make it through? "Look around and listen!" told his disciples and tells us.

    As Jesus and his disciples were walking through the busy city of Jerusalem, the disciples began to comment how impressive this place was. No matter how many times they had been there before, they couldn’t help but be amazed by the great structures that surrounded them: Herod’s palace, the mighty ...read more

    Sermon 2 - Counting The Costs And Benefits Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Mar 3, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 789 views

    As we become mission minded disciples who seek to share our faith, it helps to understand the costs and benefits of sharing our faith. It will help us remain motivated as we experience the costs and challenges of seeking the lost.

    Introduction: A. Life is full of choices, isn’t it? 1. I read a story about a family who was moving cross-country many years ago before cellphones and they decided to drive both of their cars in the move. 2.

    Timothy was a faithful disciple, leader, and pastor. His life teaches us about mentorship, perseverance, and dedication to God’s Word. Despite challenges, he remained faithful and played a key role in the growth of the early church.

    The Secret Of Spiritual Power

    Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Apr 3, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 643 views

    Christians today are encouraged to seek more power, more anointing, and more gifts. Indeed, as the Lord calls us back to the Cross to become disciples of Jesus, He intends to first humble us before empowering us.

    The basic need of a disciple of Jesus Christ is not seeking for more power from God, but more brokenness. Apostle Paul says in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 “Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in ...read more

    Navigating The Ebb And Flow

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Dec 24, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 694 views

    Jesus shared words to help John's disciples navigate change, as they were dealing with the loss of their leader. He also addressed the change of grace over legalism. This passage can be applied to change within the church.

    I have entitled our message this morning, “Navigating the Ebb and Flow.” The expression “ebb and flow” is an idiom used to describe periods of highs and lows, and growth and decline, just like the rising and falling of the tides. It is essentially the idea that life is not always constant, but ...read more

    Go! And Follow The Great Commission: Not The Great Suggestion Series

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on Aug 11, 2025

     | 376 views

    When Jesus gave the Great Commission, He did not say, “If you feel like it, and if it fits your schedule, go and make disciples.” No — He gave His followers an unshakable, urgent, eternal command.

    Go! and follow The Great Commission: Not the Great Suggestion Introduction: There are two types of instructions in life: suggestions and commands. A suggestion says: “If you get the chance, maybe do this.” A command says: “Do this now. It is your responsibility.” If the fire alarm rings in this ...read more

    This is a short segment from a teaching on discipleship. It is something that the Lord expanded my understanding of the Holy Spirit and the power to live our lives for Jesus, to be His disciples. It is from Revelation 22:1, and then Ezekiel 47:8-9.
