When the children of Israel crossed the Jordan River to inhabit the promised land, God commanded them to build altars of remembrance to testify to future generations of God's provision and power. In Joshua 3 and 4, we take a trip to visit this memorial to discover four important takeaways for our lives today.

During one of the darkest times of Israel's history, everyone was doing what was right in their own eyes. Naomi and Ruth learned that even in the most difficult times, God was present and active in their lives. We may never understand the mysteries of God, but we can cling to His promises with confidence.

The book of Ruth, a fairytale like story, which happens to be true begins with a very dark and troubled introduction. Here in the first 5 verses of Ruth is the only time throughout this entire story that God is not addressed, consulted, or even mentioned. That’s the crisis we all should avoid.

Life had not happened the way she had planned it. Ruth was at a major crossroad in her life. In this text, we discover what it looks like to have real commitment and dedication to God in spite of adverse circumstances in life.

In Mark 16:1-8, we see the great hope revealed to the women and then the admonition to tell others that hope was still alive!

So different from the arrival of a king today, the King of kings and Lord of lords arrived to His coronation humbly and riding on a donkey. He is prepared to face His greatest challenge yet, as He completes the redemptive work, which He came to accomplish on our behalf. This story teaches us many incredible truths about people’s reaction to Jesus Christ – rejoicing and praising – that would soon turn to screams of condemnation.

Even though circumstances around us change, God never changes.

In this sermon, we discover three types of responses to the teachings of Christ. The call to discipleship is a choice of sacrifice and stamina.

Friendship is important as it leads to a vital function of Christians: fellowship. Fellowship is basically the developing and nurturing of relationships built on a common foundation in Christ.

In John 4, Jesus shows us the process of intentional conversations - break down barriers, build relationships, and plant gospel seeds.
