    Jesus shares three stories to show how much every person matters to God. Jesus calls us to repent and return to him, love people he loves, and celebrate with heaven when lost people are found.

    Luke 15:1-10 God’s Unconventional Reach Have you ever lost anything? It’s really irritating, isn’t it? Losing car keys, losing your wallet, losing your cell phone. They make devices to ping all these things, but I’m sure I would probably lose that, too! Luke chapter 15 is all about lost things, ...read more

    "Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, so that Your Son may also glorify You." When God commands his glory to overshadow our church, our mouths will be full of praise and our lips with thanksgiving forever.

    FATHER, GLORIFY YOUR SON. "Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You,  as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You ...read more

    Now, That Makes No Sense At All!

     | 9,567 views

    It makes no sense to be part of the same family and be mad when the father chooses to do for one what he hasn’t chosen to do for the other. Yet, this is precisely what happened in the parable Jesus told of two sons, either of whom were prodigal.

    “Jesus said, ‘There was a man who had two sons. And the younger of them said to his father, “Father, give me the share of property that is coming to me.” And he divided his property between them. Not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took a journey into a far country, and ...read more

    If we harbor hatred or bitterness in our hearts, it leads to disharmony, dissension, bickering and slander amongst brothers. God’s word teaches us how to root out bitterness and be reconciled to one another so there is perfect peace and harmony amongst us.

Then they both cried.” (ERV) The above mentioned verse portrays what transpired between Esau and Jacob who were twin brothers, when they met ...read more

    What to eat, what to wear, who to respond to first, what to prioritize at work — each of us makes hundreds, if not thousands, of decisions each day. Some of these choices have larger consequences than others. For starters, who we choose to surround ourselves with, where we live, who we worship, ...read more

    I would like us to study the parable of the prodigal son considering our own relationship with God, centering our lives on Jesus, and having intimacy with the Father. Oftentimes, our anger and refusal to "join the party," as it were, causes us to miss muc

    Sometimes the biggest gap is between family members. God teaches us about bridge building through Jesus’ story of the prodigal son. We should offer grace to those we have broken relationships with and celebrate when those relationships are restored.

We're going to learn from a story Jesus told about a son who messed up big time, but his dad threw a party when he came back home. We're talking about offering grace to those we've ...read more
