Road to Redemption
A Bloody Sword
You can also watch on our Vimeo page. There is a huge difference when you are on the receiving end of somebody doing something for you because they “have to,” or because they “want to.” We know and confess that Jesus Christ died on the cross for the sins of whole world. Since you live in this world, that means Jesus died for you. Did he “have to” die for you, or did he “want to” die for you? It…
Spiritual Olympics
You can also watch on our Vimeo page. Sermon Text:1 Corinthians 9:24-27 We know him best as the “Apostle” Paul, but we could certainly call him “Coach,” as well. In 1 Corinthians 9 he says: “Run in such a way as to get the prize.” He’s coaching us, as Christians, to train, like an Olympic athlete going after the prize. (During Paul’s time, the winner’s “prize” would have been a laurel wreath. Today, it is a gold medal.) As the…
Jesus Stops By
You can also watch on our Vimeo page. Sermon Text:Luke 10:38-42 What would you do if Jesus dropped by your house? Would you race around the house and tidy things up, then head to the kitchen to prepare a meal? You would because this is Jesus! You’d want everything to be just right for him. But that doesn’t leave much time to visit with him. Or, because this is Jesus, and you’d want to spend every moment with him ……
Oil and Bandages
You can also watch on our Vimeo page. Sermon Text:Luke 10:25-37 The Samaritans were not liked by the Jews at Jesus’ time. So, a “Good” Samaritan would be the furthest thing from their thinking. What is Jesus trying to teach us in the parable of the “Good” Samaritan? What’s his point? There are valuable truths in this familiar parable. The three people, who came into contact with the man beat-up and left-for-dead on the side of the road, represent three…
Miracles Do Happen
You can also watch on our Vimeo page. Sermon Text: John 5:1-15 Without a single session of PT, or months in rehab, Jesus healed a man with this 8-word command: “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” This man, who hadn’t been able to use his legs for 38 years, immediately did what he was told. He picked up his old bed, tucked it under his arm and walked down the street, without the slightest limp. What’s the…
A Scary Situation
You can also watch on our Vimeo page. Sermon Text: 2 Kings 22 What if a congregation hadn’t used a Bible in so long, they didn’t even have one laying around? What if a pastor and the church leaders didn’t know why they were doing what a church does every week? What if church members had gone without hearing the Word of God for so long, they didn’t even realize something was missing? Sounds strange, doesn’t it? This Sunday, join…
The Torn Robe: Isaiah Sees the Lord
You can also watch on our Vimeo page. We’re sorry, but we do not have a copy of this week’s service bulletin available for this service.
Hannah’s Prayer
You can also watch on our Vimeo page. If reality TV shows had been a “thing” back in Bible times, last week and this week’s Bible stories would have been popular. How about a prostitute helping a couple of spies of her enemy, who then ends up as a branch of the family tree of the perfect Son of God? That was last week! This week is about a dysfunctional family. The husband really tried to take his spiritual responsibilities…
