This passage records two prayers, in which are shown two kinds of hearts, whose contrast is not only seen in the way they make their requests, but also in the way they approach God. Some people trust in themselves; others trust in God.
This evening’s sermon is entitled “Two Revealing Prayers,” and it’s taken from what is commonly called “The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector.” Darrell Bock, in The NIV Application Commentary, says, “This parable is really the parable of the two prayers. In those prayers appear two ...read more

Divine Irony: Idol Worship Still Exists in the 21st Century 1 Kings 18:27 (NLT): "About noontime Elijah began mocking them. 'You’ll have to shout louder,' he scoffed, 'for surely he is a god! Perhaps he is daydreaming, or is relieving himself. Or maybe he is away on a trip, or is ...read more

Jesus shared words to help John's disciples navigate change, as they were dealing with the loss of their leader. He also addressed the change of grace over legalism. This passage can be applied to change within the church.
I have entitled our message this morning, “Navigating the Ebb and Flow.” The expression “ebb and flow” is an idiom used to describe periods of highs and lows, and growth and decline, just like the rising and falling of the tides. It is essentially the idea that life is not always constant, but ...read more

Sometimes I think God puts a message on my heart, especially when it is a specific passage, then as I dig in and began my sermon prep, I find out what He really put on my heart!
Stealing a question I told a man about a year ago, that I was going to steal a question from him! So today, I am making good on that promise of theft! We’ll address that question eventually. Did I mention that this message started out differently about 3 weeks ago? The key passage is centered ...read more

We will see that in our passage this evening Jesus asked for only two things. He asked that He may glorify the Father in what was about to happen. And that God would restore His Son to His former glory.

This passage stands out because teaching is so highly valued throughout the New Testament. Why is it discouraged here? James considered himself a teacher and was teaching even as he penned these words about not many should be teachers.
James 3:1 Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. 2 We all stumble in many ways. If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to keep his whole body in check. Introduction: We Talk a ...read more
Scripture: James 3:1-2
Grace is God doing in us what we can't do ourselves. In this passage, we see God's grace revealing Himself to Peter, Jesus building His church, and the church's victories over the power of death.

HoHum: As we head into the Lenten season, the Easter season, wanted to do a sermon on Isaiah 53. I thought I had never preached on this passage so I went into my files and there at the top was a sermon by Davon Huss. I preached on Isaiah 53 during the Lenten season heading into Easter in 1996. ...read more

This passage has two troubling phrases: "make every effort" and "try . . . and not be able." What are we to do with those? And do they mean that God is setting up difficult barriers to get into the Kingdom?
WHAT DOES "MAKE EVERY EFFORT" MEAN? It doesn’t mean that it’s nearly impossible but that you should focus your attention. - Luke 13:22-24a. - Jesus is asked an important question: “[A]re only a few people going to be saved?” (v. 23). - That's a great question. What is the nature of ...read more
Scripture: Luke 13:22-30
Time and time again in the Scriptures, we see that God chooses the most unlikely candidates to serve him - David the shepherd to be king, fishermen to be apostles, and in this passage, the lowly shepherds to be the first to meet the newborn Christ child. Why?
One of the things I enjoy most about Biblical narrative—that is, the historical accounts in the Old and New Testament—is how often God does something completely unexpected. These can be surprising, or revealing, or thought-provoking. And sometimes they’re quite funny, as when God gave Balaam’s ...read more
Scripture: Luke 2:8-20
This passage offers deep lessons on legacy, faith, divine power, and the enduring impact of a life yielded to God. It is a reminder that even when a man of God is no longer active, his influence, prayers, and anointing can still speak.
