    "Someone" (vs 23) asks a general question but God desires personal questons... Thoughts on our walk toward the Narrow Door. Can be a very fun sermon. A call for people to have a deeper walk with God. Concluding sugestions at the end of sermon.

    In some of our previous messages I shared from: 1) Luke 13:31-35 where Jesus weeps for Jerusalem. The Pharisees have a pretense of caring for Jesus by warning Him of Herod's plans to kill Him, all while they themselves desire to do just that. We also talked about the animal imagery used in the ...read more

    God’s kingdom will come, but it can only be received by willing hearts. Let’s look at some thoughts about how we can make God’s kingdom more accessible to those around us.

    “Love is God” says 1 John 4:8 or to reverse this thought “Love is God” God minted and defined what Love is. John 1:1 tells us Jesus and God are one which also implies that Jesus is love.

    Introduction Song by Beth out of communion: Love came for me from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8tjqtJA_xU Thoughts from Shannon Wexelberg on her song “Love came for me!” For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son… Have you ever wondered how the cast of Heaven reacted to the ...read more

    Can you remember a time when you were so afraid you thought you weren’t going to make it? The most dangerous storm that night wasn’t the weather on that lake. It was the storm of fear raging in the minds of the disciples.

    This message is a contrast been a person who lives life for himself without any thought of God and his ways to the one who is guided by the Holy Spirit to remain connecte to the True Vine, Jesus. That person is fruitful and productive throughout his life

    A Tumbleweed on the Prairie “Cursed is the strong one who depends on mere humans, who thinks he can make it on muscle alone and set God aside as dead weight.

    “But David thought to himself, “One of these days I will be destroyed by the hand of Saul. The best thing I can do is to escape to the land of the Philistines. Then Saul will give up searching for me anywhere in Israel, and I will slip out of his hand.”

    Have you ever wondered what "Total Surrender" looks like? Through the Saul-Paul story, we learn that true surrender involves giving up control and submitting our will, thoughts, desires, and ambitions to God.

    Acts 9:1-19 Total surrender is a foundational aspect of our spiritual journey. It requires us to fully trust in God and align our hearts, desires, thoughts, and beliefs with His will. This process is not easy, but the rewards are immeasurable. One powerful example of complete surrender can be seen ...read more

    We don’t have all the answers to life’s hard questions, but God has. His ways are higher. His thoughts are greater. He fights our battles even those ones that we don’t know about.
