    Jesus came to speak—listen to Him. Jesus came to suffer—trust Him. Jesus came to save—tell the world. And Jesus came to rule--bow before Him for that’s what true success is all about.

    Several years ago, the Tokyo Times carried a report about a 19-year-old man who was desperate to get to Tokyo’s Haneda Airport. So he hopped a bus and demanded that the driver take him there. He was hijacking the bus, but few of the passengers were concerned. For one thing, the hijacker wasn’t ...read more

    Vance Havner was one of my favorite preachers when I was growing up, because had a wonderful, witty way of putting things that really made you think. He went home to be with the Lord several years ago, but I remember a story he told about two Indians who from a distance had been watching a ...read more

    Moses was overwhelmed by the immorality and religious practices from Egypt brought from Egypt. He had met God who gave him the Ten Commandments to implement within the new culture. He had a Shekinah Glory experience--God on earth. The Light of God radiated in his face.

    This past Sunday our pastor was recovering from the flu. When I asked him how he was doing, he said he was about 70% recovered. He then shared this with the church. As he began to preach there appeared to be a sincere heartfelt message flowing from deep within. A middle-aged man always makes a ...read more

    Occasionally, Scripture presents us with events that change everything—epochal moments. This sermon explores one such event from John 1, marking the public unveiling of Jesus' ministry.

    Epochal Events I came across a short line from a theologian and scholar named Richard D. Phillips. He basically said this (as I'm paraphrasing here), “Occasionally in Scripture we come across a truly epochal event that just changes everything.” — Richard D. Phillips I love that word: ...read more

     | 138 views

    Knowing God personally gives us strength to persevere faithfully through weariness and opposition, trusting His grace to sustain and complete the work in us.

    Some of us walked in today with tired feet and a tender heart. You’ve been faithful in the little things. You’ve shown up when the scoreboard didn’t seem to change. Maybe you’ve been praying for a prodigal, cheering on a spouse, or steadying a weary mind in the middle of the night. You’re here. And ...read more

    The sermon calls us to seek God’s kingdom first, embrace repentance, and live out our faith together, trusting God to provide and guide us.

    If you came in today with a to-do list longer than a week and a heart full of what-ifs, you’re in the right place. The King is kind, and His words are clear. He speaks to grocery-getters and diaper-changers, to students and seniors, to the weary and the wide-awake. He leans close and whispers a ...read more

    God’s grace offers healing and new life to discouraged, sinful hearts—not by our efforts, but by looking in faith to Christ, our only remedy.

    Some of us walked in today with sand in our souls. The week felt long, the road uneven. You’ve prayed, but the words sounded thin. You’ve tried to keep a sunny outlook, but the clouds rolled in anyway. Discouragement can be a quiet snake in the grass—one nip of cynicism, a bite of bitterness, and ...read more

    Stay focused on God’s calling, resisting distractions and lesser pursuits, so your life’s work aligns with what truly matters in God’s eyes.

    Some weeks feel like a parade of interruptions. Phones ping, pressures pile, promises pull, and before long our attention drifts like a leaf on a windy day. You set out to do the thing God has put in your hand—raise a child, love your spouse, serve your neighbor, finish that assignment, shepherd ...read more

    God invites us to move beyond cynicism, trust His surprising work, and expect transformation when we honestly bring our doubts and hopes to Jesus in prayer.

    Some of us carry a quiet weariness. We scroll headlines, hear hard news, and think, “Here we go again.” Cynicism creeps in like a cold draft. We start to shrink our hopes, trim our prayers, and settle for safe, small expectations. We wonder if real change is possible. We wonder if God still ...read more
