    Pagans doubt God because they try to put Him in a box. But Christians sometimes doubt because they forget that He was in the box to begin with.

    OPEN: (I had brought a large cardboard box on stage that my children had turned into a house) I suppose some of you have wondered what this is. Does anybody know what I have on stage with me? That’s right - it’s a box. But, it’s not just any box. This is a marvelous box. This is the creation of ...read more

    What do you bring to the parade? What will you give Jesus today? He is passing by. He is looking your way. Will you look him in the eye, take him by the hand, and make him your King and Lord?

Celebrities would ride in a convertible automobile down the massive canyons of steel and glass, with walls so high ...read more

    Jesus promises us peace, and His entrance into Jerusalem demonstrates He is the prince of peace. This explores what it means for us to have Jesus’ peace

    Could I get an indication of who here desires conflict, fighting, feeling uneasy? (What no one? I thought there would be one or two) Most people desire peace.
