    The Good Shepherd offers us a chance to have a new life in Christ

    John 10:1-10 This Sunday is known as ‘The Good Shepherd’ Sunday – almost everyone knows some variation of this parable: the shepherd who knew all the sheep's names, the one who left 99 sheep to rescue one, and gathered them into the sheepfold to be safe.

    In this message, we will see how the birth announcement of the King of Kings wasn’t delivered to the rich or royal, but it was instead delivered in the least expected place. It was delivered to some lowly shepherds.

    When people send out baby shower invitations, they primarily mail them to family and friends. I once saw a really funny movie, a comedy, where a couple sent out fake shower announcements when they weren’t really going to have a baby. They were in debt and needed some money to pay off their bills, ...read more

    Sermon: Striving To Lead With Integrity And Skill

     | 307 views

    With love and skill, David the shepherd cared for his flocks. As the king of Israel, David would care for God’s people. Despite the relentless pressure they had faced from their enemies and their woeful record of persistent rebellion, God had never abandoned them.

    Sermon: Striving to Lead with Integrity and Skill Scripture Leson: Psalms 78:67-72 “Then he rejected the tents of Joseph, he did not choose the tribe of Ephraim; but he chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion, which he loved.

    Isaiah wrote Isaiah 40 to teach Israel that comfort is found in the Messiah who is a sovereign Shepherd, an incomparable Creator, and a strengthening Savior.

    Opening thought: Ever had someone tell you to get out of your comfort zone? Those who say that want you to get out of your complacency, drop the laziness, get moving, do something you’ve never done before, try something risky. In today’s passage, Isaiah encourages us to find a real ...read more

    In John 10:27 Jesus said, "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them and they follow me." If we're his sheep, we'll be able to recognize when he's speaking to us. We will know him, listen to him and follow him. Let's look at this subject and see what we can learn.

    MY SHEEP LISTEN TO MY VOICE John 10:1-10 In March I did a sermon on Ps. 23 about the Lord being our Shepherd. I used some verses from John 10 where Jesus said that he is the good shepherd. In vs. 27 Jesus said, "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them and they follow me." If we are his ...read more

    Christ's became man to present the good news to the world. One aspect of this was to affirm who He was and why He came. We too are to be Christ's presence and affirm what we believe.

    Introductory Considerations 1. This is the 4th message in a series. Peter says "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." 1Pet 2:2,9.

    Why was Cain’s offering rejected? We reproduce Cain’s sin when we allow sin to control us and try to produce our own righteousness.

    We’ve come to a crucial crossroads in our journey through the book of Matthew. Everything that Jesus has taught and done has been leading to this point. You could say that the events we read about today are the beginning of the end that leads to the beginning. In cosmic terms – the Lamb of God, ...read more
