Today in our series Jesus - The Real Action Hero, we come to the story of Jesus and His disciples in the Garden of Gethsemane. As Pastor Clay is going to explain, were going to see Jesus in a way weve not seen Him before. Were also going to see the disciples at what turns out to be not one of their better moments. When Jesus announces to them that they are all going to turn their backs on Him, well, lets just say the disciples are confident that Jesus is wrong. But, as well see their confidence was misplaced.

The Lords Supper is one of the most important and meaningful acts that a local church conducts. But how much do you know about that first Lords Supper with Jesus and His disciples in the upper room? As we continue our series Jesus - The Real Action Hero, we come to the night before Jesus arrest. Jesus and His disciples were in Jerusalem for the Passover, a celebration of the Jews deliverance from slavery in Egypt. But as they celebrated that occasion, Jesus initiated a new practice that would commemorate the deliverance of all of us from slavery to sin.

What does love look like? That may seem like a strange question, but most of us have probably heard the old saying: ''Love is a verb'' love an action. So, what does love look like? More specifically what does your love for God look like? Today we come to a story in Mark chapter 14 of an extraordinary act of love. Pastor Clay is going to share with us the story of a woman who showed her love for Jesus in a remarkable way. And from her story, we're going to learn a few things about what our love for God should look like.

The End Is Near! Have you ever seen someone holding up a sign with those words on it? Well, the truth is the end may in fact be near. This week, Pastor Clay returns to Chapter 13 of the book of Mark which records Jesus teaching on the end times events, including His return to earth. Pretty much everyone wishes they knew exactly when the end is going to come, and when the return of Jesus Christ will be. But as Pastor Clay is going to explain today, when Jesus returns is not really the point.

Mention the phrase end times and all kinds of questions come up. When will it be? Are we in the last days? What will happen? When it comes to talking about the end times there is no shortage of questions that people have. But, when the Bible talks about end times, is answering those questions really even the point? As we continue our series ''Jesus - The Real Action Hero,'' Pastor Clay is going to explain how answering all of our questions is really not Gods agenda. Jesus teaching on the end times came as a result of His disciples asking Him some questions about when the end would be. The disciples may not have gotten all the answers they wanted, but Jesus teaching was intended to make a different point.

The uncertain world we live in today terrorist attacks, financial upheaval, and public unrest. Are we moving into the end times? Mark chapter 13 records a conversation between Jesus and some of His disciples about signs and events that would lead up to and be a part of the end times. This week, Pastor Clay is taking us further into Mark chapter 13 as we look at verses 14 through 23, an a further description of events that will take place during the tribulation period. To be sure it is going to be a time unlike any the world has experienced.

The end times thats been a pretty popular subject the last few years it seems. Even Hollywood has gotten into the act with several films centered around end time disasters. People are preparing to live off the grid when it all comes crashing down. Everybody seems to have something to say about what it will be like in the last days. We're returning to our series ''Jesus - The Real Action Hero'' and this week we're on Mark Chapter 13. The chapter opens with Jesus making a shocking prediction about the Temple in Jerusalem. That prediction opened the door for Jesus to teach some lessons on the end times. Most of us have lots of questions when it comes to discussing the end of time. I cant think of a better person to learn about it from than Jesus.

Joy, its a word that may have different meanings to different people. What does joy mean to you? More importantly, where can joy be found? As a follower of Jesus we probably understand that there is a difference between happiness as the world knows it, and joy. But we sometimes struggle with understanding how to live in joy in our daily lives. As youll hear this week, Pastor Clay is going to show us from Luke chapter 2 how the birth of the Savior changed everything and made it possible to live in joy.

Were in the second week of our Christmas series, What God Wants For Christmas. Last week we looked at the life of Mary, the mother of Jesus, and a life of surrender. Today were in Matthew chapter 1 where Pastor Clay is going to show us from the life of Joseph what a faith-filled life should look like. Faith is obviously a very important concept, but a lot of people have some misconceptions about what faith really is, and what it looks like in our lives.
