     | 5,506 views

    Dr. Wood shows his audience that in the midst of problems the good news of Jesus Christ cannot be held back. God uses three groups to get the good news out. The unexpected, the unsuspected and the undeflected.

    The council that had convened was prepared to kill the disciples. God had miraculously freed them from the prison and they returned right back to doing what the temple rulers had told them not to do The Good news was too good to keep it to themselves. Verse 33 There were some that were ready to ...read more

    Jesus didn't fit John's idea of what the Messiah would be like. Jesus stressed love rather than judgment. Jesus moves in surprising ways and communicates God's grace in unexpected situations.

    Matthew 11:2-11 “Different Expectations” INTRODUCTION The family gathers around the newborn’s bassinette. They marvel at this squirming gift of life, and give thanks for health and wholeness. As they gaze upon the baby’s features they wonder what the child will ...read more

    While on his way to Balak, king of Moab, Balaam experienced two things that he probably never forgot! He heard a message from the Angel of the LORD--and from another, unexpected source!

    The disciples were tired and worn out from ministry; however, Jesus challenged them to put aside their own needs to love and serve others. As a result, the disciples were refreshed and strengthened in an unexpected manner.

    The apostle Paul once informed the believers of Galatia, “For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself’” ...read more

    Jesus rode into town as a king but died as a rebel. However, in his death we recieved a King. This sermon discovers reasons He was labled a rebel worthy of death.

    As I was beginning to prepare for this weeks sermon on the secrets of the Kingdom I realized that we have not met the King yet. Therefore, this week we are going to step away from the Kingdom teaching so that I might introduce you to the King. Since this is Palm Sunday, I think we should start ...read more
