    The Pharisees thought religion was about rules and regulations. Jesus taught that it was about worshipping God from the heart and meeting human needs. This sermon looks at the Pharisees silly Sabbath rules and Jesus’ correction of their false teachings, and a startling statement of His deity.

    Christmas Significa Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jul 11, 2021
     | 2,415 views

    The real beauty and power of Christmas is how it is as mundane as it is holy, secular as it is sacred, temporal as it is eternal, physical as it is spiritual, worldly as it is heavenly … and this is by design.

    Today’s scripture reading reminds me of Christmas hymns like “Angles We Have Heard on High” in which the angels “sweetly sing o’er the plans” (UMH, verse 1; p.238) or “Hark! the Herald Angels Sing” … “glory to the newborn King” (UMH, verse 1; p. 240). Songs like these beautifully capture the drama ...read more

Some people attribute that quote to John Wayne. 3. I don’t know if the Duke did or didn’t say those words. 4. The line doesn’t appear in ...read more

    One of the intriguing things about people is the differences among them.

    Whether we admit it or not, we all enjoy looking at the many kinds of different people that God created. • Some people we look at with great admiration because of their physical beauty and attractiveness. • Some we look at and with great admiration for their great personality they ...read more

     | 2,619 views

    If you're going to keep the faith, it's necessary to keep the love of Christ as well, especially for one another, and some folks who are likely to be neglected or forgotten. The lifestyle choice is between worldly lust and Christ-lke love.

    When you see Nicodemus before you, it is difficult to imagine a person more qualified to be a good human being. Yet, he was a moral and spiritual failure. The Bible wants you to be asking yourself this question, “If Nicodemus’ faith enough?” If I have the faith of Nicodemus, is that enough?

    Find John 3, and thank you for joining us in a series entitled “Let’s Get Real: Answers to Life’s Biggest Questions.” I read about a young man in 6th grade who was so good at his particular sport that former professionals came to his games.

    In Mark 14, Mark places the themes of love and hate alongside each other to create a sharp contrast. The hatred of the Jewish leaders, is followed by Mary’s loving act, which is followed by Judas’ betrayal. These stories challenge us to examine our feelings and actions toward Jesus.

    In this gospel narrative, not only are we going to encounter a resurrection before THE resurrection, we’re also going to encounter a Jesus who sees not only the brokenness of the world, but does something about it.

    Listen to some of these crazy Easter traditions from different places around the world. In Australia, it’s become very popular to replace chocolate bunnies with chocolate marsupials called Biblys (I guess nothing says Happy Easter like chewing on a chocolate hamster ear).
