    On this Palm Sunday, let’s emulate the qualities seen in this donkey, ’the most valuable player’ in the story, and let’s have revival.

    Matt.21:1-11 M.V.P. INTRO: If Jesus had of entered into one of our modern cities, leading the parade, He would have been arrested immediately. He would be a wanted man.

    With so many religious options available, why worship Jesus? Why look to Him only? A message for Palm Sunday.

    Palm Sunday April 8, 2001 What a spectacle it must have been. A grown man on a donkey is treated to the reception of a king. That’s how Jesus entered Jerusalem on Palm Sunday. Surrounded by a crowd who shouted Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord. They wanted to ...read more

    Appluading Jesus is important, but it is not the only measure of commitment. A message for Palm Sunday.

    Palm Sunday March 28, 1999 INTRODUCTION READ TEXT This Friday you’re going to die. Those very words might have crossed Jesus’ mind on this Sunday some 1,970 years ago. The day we now call Palm Sunday was the first day of the last week of Jesus’ earthly life. This Friday you’re going ...read more

    God has little interest in our attempts at being righteous. We will always lack one more thing in our own strength.

    Wonder and Amazement How many of you this morning came into the sanctuary and were amazes, awed or astounded? - Just as I thought - Everything was pretty much as you expected right? - Now some of us, and I hope all of us, were drawn into worship as we sang and prayed - But did you come to stand ...read more

    "I rejoiced with those who said to me, ’Let us go to the house of the Lord.’"

    This morning, we continue our study of Psalms 120-134, the "songs of ascents". Another name for them might be "songs for the road", or "songs for the journey". In ancient Israel, they were sung by travelers making their way to Jerusalem for the annual feasts of Pentecost, and Tabernacles and ...read more

    Confusion over issues like what to wear, who should preach or pray, etc, often clouds the issue. Worship is all about Him!

    March 3, 2002 Paul is a very old and dear friend of mine; he is also a troublemaker! Before the days of my preaching every chapter, every verse, straight through a Bible book, I used to nimbly avoid the trouble traps Paul laid out. Today I am cornered! If I tell the truth about this passage ...read more

    This message examines what true worship is all about.

    Mark 8:22-26; Isaiah 6:1-8 I find it interesting that we call our “church worship gatherings” services. The definition of service is, an act of devotion to God; witness. b. A religious rite. Is that why you came to church this morning, out of devotion to God? Many people go to church with ...read more

    Another Kind Of King Series

     | 7,735 views

    Jesus Christ’s entry into Jerusalem reveals Jesus as the promised king, the humble king, and the unexpected king.

    Note: This sermon was introduced with scene 49 from the play "Traveling Light." As Americans, most of us don’t like kings very much. After all, that’s why we fought a revolutionary war in 1776, to be free of the tyranny of a king. Even though the king might be a benevolent king, he’s still a king ...read more

    The Barren Temple Series

    based on 104 ratings
     | 19,619 views

    Christ’s cursing of the fig tree and "cleansing" of the temple caution us about living our lives by mere appearances and trusting in anything other than Jesus.

    Appearances can be deceiving. I was reminded of this several years ago when I was waiting in line at a McDonalds with two of my sons. A guy came into McDonalds who looked really suspicious. He had long hair, tattoos everywhere, several body piercings, and he just looked scary. This guy seemed to be ...read more
