For many of us, when it comes to the Bible, it can seem like a mystery. And that can steal some of the desire and motivation to dig into it.  But with some understanding, it can open up a whole new world. Through our sermon today, Pastor Jeff preaches a message attempting to take some of the mystery out of the Bible. If you’re one who can struggle with motivation because you find it difficult to read and understand and apply the bible, we think this message will change that. We would love for you to listen, to share with a friend, and to see the Bible come to life in your life today!

Can the Bible Be Trusted? Can we be confident that the Bible is from God and is a reliable record of God’s will and purposes for mankind? Beyond that, can it be trusted to be an accurate rendering of what was originally penned by the authors who wrote it?

We’re going to address those issues in this sermon, because a lot of people are wondering and even more people are doubting. We invite you to listen in and share with a friend!

Today we start a new series where we try to make sense of the Bible. Where did it come from? How did we get it? Who wrote it? What is the ORIGIN STORY of this divine Book? 

We tackle those questions and more in the sermon today. We invite you to listen and to share this with a friend. 

Happy New Year!

Today we’re going to be talking about belief.  We’re going to talk about what it looks like to Make Room to Believe Simply.  And to do so, we will look at a couple of very famous verses in the bible that not only talk about Jesus coming to earth but the reason why He did.  

We invite you to listen in to our Christmas Eve service as we finish out our MAKE ROOM series! 

Today, we’re going to be thinking about what it means to Make Room…to Live Compassionately. There are a lot of passages we could go to where we could see compassion on display, but we’re going to go to one that speaks of the compassion we see in the coming of Jesus into our world. That makes it a Christmas passage, though it doesn’t talk about angels or shepherds. But what it DOES talk about teaches us how to Make Room…to Live Compassionately. 

Now, as we get into this, we know that living compassionately doesn’t just happen. It won’t just develop on its own. Left to ourselves, we won’t stumble into compassion. No, to live compassionately requires that we would take some intentional steps. It requires that we would make room for it to happen in our lives.  

We invite you to listen in as Pastor Jeff continues our MAKE ROOM series today.

Today, we’re going to be thinking about what it means to hope expectantly. How does that little word, HOPE, ring in your ears? Are you filled with hope? Have you been disappointed by dashed hopes? Whatever your response, today we are going to talk about the HOPE that we can have through the Messiah, Jesus Christ. We invite you to join us as we HOPE EXPECTANTLY.

There’s no denying we’re embarking on a very busy time of year. It would be very easy to wake up around New Years’ and wonder where December went. At Pathway this year, we’re hoping to change that.  Instead of a season where important people and priorities get crowded out, we want to Make Room.  We want to intentionally make room for what we hope the season would be for us and for our family.  

We’re right at the beginning of the season and it is in your power to make room for whatever you want this season to be. But, it’s going to take some intentionality on your part because the momentum of the season can be pretty overwhelming. But if we set our minds on it, it can happen. You might just wake up around New Years’ and think it was the best Christmas ever.

To assist us along the way, we’re going to be focusing each week on making room for some other essentials. Drawing on the events surrounding the incarnation (Jesus coming to earth), we’re going to examine some key priorities to keep our focus where it can help us make this season as meaningful as ever. Today we’re getting started as we consider how to Make Room…To Worship Freely.

The text that we’re going to be looking at today has some very uplifting truths that we hope will encourage you. It also has some very troubling truths that will grab your attention. It is a good news, bad news text. We invite you to listen in to our sermon from Pastor Jeff, called Good News, Bad News, from Daniel chapters 10-12, as we wrap up our sermon series in the book of Daniel.

The first 6 chapters of the book of Daniel have often been described as history. They give the historical and chronological account of Daniel and the lion’s den; Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and the fiery furnace; the reign of King Nebuchadnezzar over the nation of Babylon, and so on.  But when we come to chapter 7, there is a shift.  From this point on, what we find is a focus on prophecy or The Road Ahead.  Chapter 2 gave us a little hint of the future with the vision of the multi-metal statue in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream, but the rest of the book fleshes it out even more.

The prophecy we find in Daniel is significant.  As we’ll see, it covers the period of time that immediately followed when Daniel was writing for the next several hundred years. From our vantage point, that is now history and we can take a look and see how accurate that prophecy was. But Daniel also takes a look WAY down the road to events that are still future to us…all the way to when Jesus will return again.

We invite you to listen in as Pastor Jeff continues our series, Daniel, preaching through Daniel chapters 7-9 today.

Today we come back to the book of Daniel to take a look at a circumstance where there was a big trial that was being faced and we’re going to see how it was approached. And since it has to do with overcoming lions, it seemed appropriate to call this message: Taming Trials.

The place where we find this account is in Daniel chapter 6.  If you’re familiar with the Bible, you are familiar with this event. If you’re not familiar with the Bible, you’re still probably familiar with this event. However, even if you know the story, there are some keys to this chapter we’re going to talk about today that usually get missed altogether. We’re going to consider that today.

We invite you to join us as Pastor Jeff continues our series through the book of Daniel.
