This morning we come to a place where the I am statements get a little harder for the world and even some in the church to swallow. Jesus didn’t give many ways to heaven. Jesus didn’t tell us there are many truths. Nor did Jesus say that life is found in temporal things of this life. He declares we cannot inherit the true destination of eternal Life, without walking the only path of the righteous...

Yet sometimes the greatest problem isn’t that you cannot find your way! It’s literally that you cannot see! Jesus makes a bold statement because He is the light of the world. He has come into the world to expose the dark and rescue u...

In our sermon study today, Jesus addresses more than our physical hunger. Jesus has just fed over 5000 with 2 fish and 5 loaves and these people chase after Him for more from His hand. I wonder today how many of keep seeking Jesus as a Genie in a bottle! Jesus says He is the bread of life that brings to us more than daily food, but will a hunger that is spiritual. Jesus is the bread that brings li...

Jesus comes at us not to address our behavior so those may change. As we close this series, Jesus has been addressing Lordship in our walk. Who do you truly serve as Master? Love will always expose who or what has your affection, devotion, commitment, loyalty, and honor. There are dangers in thinking you can keep 2 lovers. There are dangers in thinking you can serve 2 masters. Today we address the...

Abiding in Christ and you will bear good fruit because of the good Root.

Jesus ends His sermon on the Mount with choices. These choices will lead us to a final destination. Today, we discover that Jesus identifies 2 gates that have 2 roads with 2 different crowds and lead to 2 different destinations. What gate you choose to enter will determine the road and destination. Can we get off the wide and easy road? Yes we can! But we must then go through the narrow gate with...

When we think about the watchtower, what comes to your mind? God has called men to rise and stand upon the watchtower. Called us to provide, protect, lead, and love as Jesus (Eph. 5)! Today we search the book of Ezekiel who was given the task to be the watchman of the house of Israel. God called him to warn of the coming dangers of not following the Word in obedience. He still calls us to stand wi...

Worship. It is not about just Sunday morning. Worship is about our posture of surrender to the Lordship of Christ. Today, the message is about who you serve? Will it be the idols of this culture? Or will serve the Lord God alone? He will not compete for second place in your life. He has the right to command us to worship Him alone, because of who He is. He is Holy, Supreme, & All-powerful. Com...

God’s heart is for our hearts to be joined with His heart. That we would share in what moves His heart, for what He loves, and for what grieves His heart.

Sunday’s are usually set aside for a Sabbath Day where we enter into God’s rest and bond with our Creator. Today our culture finds so many things to keep us busy and distracted, not to enter that rest with God. In our scripture, Israel disobeyed God’s command to rest on day 7. Rest is dwelling with God almighty. We enter that rest when we are obedient to HIs word. Today we look into what happened...

Love is not what we define as love. God is love and He defines love. For us to understand Chav, or love that exists regardless of our opinions. Love exists but cannot sing unless it is reciprocated. Today, we discover that love is very different than what Tina Turner told us. Love is not a second hand emotion. God is never Willy-nilly about His love. God chose to love us even while we were still s...

Do you want God to reveal hidden things to you? Today, we dig into the depths of what that looks like. What is our responsibility? Are we receptive?

Have you ever had someone rip out your heart and then stomp on it, dance on it, and act as though it never bothered them? God speaks to Hosea and King Solomon about how He is moved and captivated by our heart at just one look. God loves us and He is overwhelmed by us that He sent Jesus Christ to save and redeem. His love tells me, “here is MY heart, you can have it. He trusts that we will protect...
