In the life of Paul and Barnabas we find some insights about how God restores relationships in the midst of conflict.

When the separation is deep, the restoration can be life-changing, even eternal.  May we experience the healing that overcomes our social divides and when we do, let’s praise God for the saving work He does through Christ!

In the life of Joseph we find three key aspects in discovering how our human relationships impact our availability to God to restore our faith.

Cheer Up, On your feet! Because just like Jesus restored blind Bartimaeus He’ll restore whatever healing you’re in need of.

The resurrected Christ meets the disciples at the Sea of Galilee, the same place where He first called them.  Jesus restores Peter through three questions and a command that he had heard before, “follow me”.

The risen Christ meets Cleopas and another disciple on the road to Emmaus, but they don’t recognize him. What keeps us from recognizing Christ?

Though we have a "formula" for calculating "when" Easter is, we are called to SOO much more than that. We are called to be an Easter people! Every day living in the truth and the call of the resurrection, to insert the savior that rose from the dead into every day crossroads situations. On your walks back to what you know (your job, your family, your personal battles), are you letting the savior in?

We remember that there were two triumphant entries into Jerusalem through two different gates before Passover nearly 2,000 years ago. Which gate are you going to?

God promises to give us rest, but it is an invitation that requires our response. Today’s sermon looks at three choices we make that can lead to rest for our souls.

Responding to God's grace means choosing to walk towards Jesus. Our response to God's transforming Grace is to share the gospel with others, and pressing on to continue to be transformed. How are you responding to God's grace? And how are you responding to God's call in your community?
