    A sermon on how we deny Christ when we don’t lean on him

    Denying Jesus Luke 22:54-62 Peter was “the Rock”. He was sure that he would never forsake Jesus. That when ever the going got tough he would be there. In fact he even told Jesus that he was ready to go with Him into prison and into death. How often do we do the same thing? We stand and say ...read more

    When Jesus taught, he did so in parables. Now this was not unique in Jesus’ day for most rabbis or teachers taught in parables. The Greek word for parable means “thrown along something else.” Parables are about comparisons.

    Jesus, the Teacher Mark 4:1-20 For the past several weeks, we’ve been looking at the Gospel of Mark through two questions: “Who is Jesus?” and “What meaning does he have for our lives?” We’ve learned that Jesus came to preach that the kingdom of God is near, he ...read more

    How do we witness? By presenting the things of God honestly! We need to know what we know, and be willing to show that to others! If we won’t, then who will … and if we don’t, what can it cost them?

    Jesus and Nicodemus John 3:1-15 Introduction - The gospel of John screams of the faith that we should have in Christ -- It is the clearest example of living life FOR the one who redeemed you and I - If we can learn to love others like Jesus’ … we can bring them TO Him -- Re: We ...read more

    Jesus the Savior November 25, 26, & 29 2007 Jesus Who? The cross as the symbol of Christianity It is very surprising that Christians use the cross as their main symbol.

    One of the great things about God is that He wants us to know Him. Not just know about Him, but, to know Him.

    My servant grew up in the LORD’s presence like a tender green shoot, like a root in dry ground. There was nothing beautiful or majestic about his appearance, nothing to attract us to him. He was despised and rejected— a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our ...read more

    Jesus identifies with us in Baptism

    As we come to think about the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry, we mustn’t make the mistake of forgetting what comes before it.
