     | 2,613 views

    The Beatitudes provide a description of the signs to be recognized in the experiences of the Christian who is moving along the path toward mature discipleship.

    Seeing the Beatitudes as Steps in Restructuring Your Heart For the past few weeks, we have been thinking about what it means to be followers of Jesus.

    Jesus doesn’t tell Zacchaeus, “I’ll stand in your doorway, but I will not come inside.” Jesus doesn’t tell Zacchaeus, “I’ll look in your window, but I will not come inside.” No, Jesus says instead, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down; for I must stay at your house today.” (Luke 19:5b)

    We are in a short series of sermons entitled The Truth about You. And we conclude this series with a very famous story, the story of Jesus and Zacchaeus. This is the last of Jesus’ personal encounters (in Luke’s gospel) before He arrives in Jerusalem to be tried, crucified, and eventually ...read more

    Evangelism is sharing the hope we have within us that many do not want to hear because it means admitting our rebellious, sinful nature AND there is a qualified to judge.

    So maybe you’ve heard it said, ‘read your bible’ so you tried and failed. Our hope as leaders is that all of us will pick up God’s word and come to understand the true nature of God. After all, the bible is God’s Word curated over centuries detailing His nature, His will, the meaning of life and ...read more

    The life we get from Jesus, a gift from God through the Holy Spirit, requires cleansing and renewal daily, not just at the beginning.

    This familiar chapter from John’s Gospel is the lectionary text for today, the 2nd Sunday in Lent.

    Who Controls Your World?

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Oct 13, 2024
     | 918 views

    So many things seem to control our lives. So what, or who, controls your world? Are you at the mercy of something that has a grip on you that keeps you from being who you want to be? Or have you found the answer to what will best give you the peace you are looking for? We all have a choice.
