New King Church

We are continuing our study in the Gospel of Mark in chapter 12:18-34. Just like we saw last week, Jesus will be presented with more questions from the religious leaders of Israel who have come desiring to trap Him. This week we will see how true life and hope can only be found by believing in Jesus. We hope to see you Sunday!

The Parable of the Vineyard (or of the Tenants) that Jesus tells is in response to the religious leaders questioning His authority in the previous chapter.  The parable is violent and ends in death and destruction. Why did I volunteer to preach this section?  How am I going to relate it to 2025?  Come this week and hear about three main themes: Temple, Authority, and Commitment and see how they relate to your life!

Good afternoon New King Church family. We are continuing on in our study of Mark in a familiar passage to many where Jesus curses a fig tree and cleanses the temple. This Sunday we will study why it is Jesus does this and how to apply these verses to our life today. We hope to see you there!

Finally, we are back in the Gospel of Mark after spending the holiday season discussing our values and advent. This week Jesus has arrived in Jerusalem in a passage that has often been called “The Triumphal Entry”. However, as we will see, in Mark’s account the surprising details he shares will both encourage and challenge us as we learn what it means to follow Jesus. We can’t wait to see you Sunday!

It's been weeks since we last preached from the Book of Mark. Next week we will pick back up in chapter 11. In order to refocus our minds and prepare our hearts to continue our series "Who is Jesus?" we will spend this week recapping and looking forward to the events in Mark. We will also reflect on the incarnation of Jesus and how we should celebrate Emmanuel all year long.

The advent of Jesus was the joyful realization of the long-awaited Messiah, yet Christ's arrival, like our lives, was also marked by grief and hostility. 

Peace, it's something we all long and search for but it seems so hard to get. In our world we see the absence of peace in wars around the globe, recent political elections, chaos from it all, our own anxieties and fears, and broken relationships in our lives. Where can we find peace in the midst of no peace? In this week's sermon we will look to the scriptures and then see Jesus Christ the one who makes peace for those who are in turmoil. 

Join us this Sunday as we continue our Advent series with Jesus the Light of Comfort.  This week we'll look again at the story of Simeon who was waiting for the long promised Messiah, the one called the consolation or comfort of Israel.  We'll learn what comfort is, what comfort looks like and how to get it.

Join us this Sunday as we begin our Advent series with Jesus our hope.  This week we'll look at the story of Simeon who was waiting for the long promised Messiah.  From this passage, we'll see what hope is, what hope looks like, and how to have hope. Luke 2:25-35
