    This is the last section of Mark before the triumphal entry into Jerusalem. Mark gives us a picture of Jesus on the road to Jerusalem with courage and determination. Along the road to Jerusalem we learn lessons about greatness and service.

    Introduction: A. If you would humor me, I’d like to start with a little bit of “road” humor. 1. Why did the chicken cross the road? I don’t know, why? I don’t know—I asked you first! 2. What do you call a chicken crossing the road? Answer: Poultry in motion. 3. Why did the bubblegum cross the ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 125 views

    God’s grace meets us in our sin and need, offering true freedom and acceptance through faith in Jesus, not our own efforts.

    Some of us arrived today feeling like life has been a long hallway of closed doors. You knocked on the door of good intentions and it stayed shut. You jiggled the handle of self-improvement and it wouldn’t budge. You leaned your ear to the keyhole of religious busyness and heard only your own ...read more

    The sermon calls us to live out quiet, faithful obedience to God, shining as lights and reflecting Christ’s character in everyday life without complaint.

    Friends, grace to you. Maybe you carried in a bag of what-ifs and a bundle of weariness. God meets us here. Not with crossed arms, but with open hands. He knows the week you just had.

     | 122 views

    The sermon emphasizes embracing God’s forgiveness so deeply that it transforms us into people who freely extend mercy and forgiveness to others in everyday life.

    Some of us walked in today with invisible suitcases—stuffed with memories we’d rather forget, words we wish we could unsay, and wounds we struggle to understand. We smile, we sing, we shake hands. Meanwhile, there are names that tighten our chest and moments that make our stomach drop. You’re not ...read more

    Jesus meets us in our weakness, restores what is withered, and calls us to receive his mercy and healing, even when others resist compassion.

    Friends, some of us walked in today with hands that feel tired and hearts that feel thin. Maybe you’ve been carrying a hurt so long it’s started to shape the way you hold yourself. Maybe your courage has curled up, your patience has pinched in, your hope has shrunk to the size of a clenched fist. ...read more

    God calls us to courageous, faithful proclamation of His Word, persevering in truth and love, regardless of opposition or changing times, trusting Christ’s presence and strength.

    Church family, have you ever received a message that felt like a hand on your shoulder—steady, strong, and timely? Paul’s words to Timothy read like that: a seasoned shepherd speaking to a younger servant, a father in the faith speaking to a son in the faith. The room is small, the air is cold, and ...read more

    No act of faith or obedience, whether great or small, whether seen or unseen, will go unrewarded.

    This morning, I’d like to address a simple question: Is it worth it? Is the payoff worth the cost, is the potential reward worth the risk? We face that question all the time, for the simple reason that everything has a cost. Nothing is free. Even gifts usually come with some kind of strings ...read more

    The importance of worship

    In my Christian life so far, I have been fortunate, or depending on your viewpoint, unfortunate enough to be present in Churches where there have been considerable discussions about worship. Some of these have involved changes in hymnbooks – do we keep our old book or move to Mission Praise. Some ...read more

    How do we begin the process of personal change?

    If you take one of the bulletins and turn over the flap, you’ll see a list of eight "core values". These core values identify what we’re about as a church. They describe our basic identity, our DNA. And like DNA, which is found in every cell of the body, our intent is that we would see these ...read more

    Less is more and debt is less.

    Proverbs 22:7 The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender. There are more people enslaved in the land of the free than we would like to admit.
