Raising Lazarus Amid Questions, Fears, and Doubts
Full audio available I want us to read this passage about Lazarus straight through in its entirety, but first I want to begin with verses 5-6… You see, in reading this story, it’s easy to immediately question Jesus’ motives.

12.02.2019
What it Takes to be a Christian
Full audio available I think we could probably all agree that life can be really difficult at times, right? And on top of normal, everyday life difficulties, we have the difficulty of attempting to follow the teaching and commands of Jesus. It’s not easy for...
11.25.2019
God’s Return on Investment

Humility the Jesus Way
Do you appreciate encouragement, to be promoted, praised, honored, patted on the back? In today’s passage, I believe Jesus is telling us that it’s okay to desire these things! But there’s a certain way he prescribes for us to be...
10.20.2019

10.07.2019
The Absurdity of Prayer
Many of us struggle with the idea of prayer. We wonder does God really hear us? We wrestle with the thought of “who are we to ask the Almighty God for something?” Many would prefer to not pray out loud, perhaps...
09.30.2019
How to Recover from “Busy, Busy, Busy” Part Two

09.23.2019
How to Recover from “Busy, Busy, Busy”

08.25.2019
The Door and Shepherd = Protection and Nourishment
Last week we worked our way through John 9, and were able to see a beautiful progression of a man moving from blindness to boldness as Jesus healed him and the man gradually became more emboldened as to what he...
08.18.2019

07.29.2019
The Truth Shall Set You Free

06.10.2019
“Like Children”

The Miraculous Tax Provision

05.27.2019
I do believe; help my unbelief
Last week I had mentioned that the disciples had been on an emotional rollercoaster. They were high as a kite as Jesus had accepted the title of Messiah, but moments later were brought down to the lowest of lows as...
05.20.2019
The Transfiguration
Over the past few weeks we have seen a transition in Jesus’s ministry. We have studied the first two years of His life and actions alongside His followers, and now we are seeing Him focus His attention more specifically to...
05.13.2019
To Save One’s Life
It was such a powerful conversation between Jesus and Peter that we looked at last week. Peter declared Jesus to be the Son of God and the Christ. (Christ meaning the Messiah) And then Jesus made a powerful declaration Himself,...
05.06.2019
The Messianic Declaration
This morning, as we continue our chronological walk through the life of Christ, we enter into a new season of His ministry. It appears that Jesus’s Galilean ministry has for the most part, ended. The focus of His great works...
04.28.2019
The Leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees
On our chronological journey through the gospels we had last seen Jesus in the book of Matthew, healing people in the region of Decapolis. Decapolis was a non-Jewish territory on the opposite side of the Sea of Galilee from Capernaum. Full...

The Lord’s Supper

A Peculiar Miracle in a Foreign Land
