This week we look at the last “I AM” statement in the book of John. In chapter 15, Jesus not only presents Himself as the one true vine, but also reveals there are basically two kinds of branches: those that can alive and bearing fruit and those that are withering and dying and fruitless. The difference between the two is one is abiding in the Vine, connected to Jesus, and the other is not. The qu...

Lazarus had died, and Mary and Martha informed Jesus about his death. Instead of tending to him right away, Jesus waited. He waited not because He didn't care, but because He chose to use the situation for the glory of God. Martha asks why He wasn't there in the first place to save His friend since she knew He had healed the sick before. Jesus informs her that “He is the resurrection and the life”...

Do you hear the voices in our world calling for your attention? The phone is constantly ringing, emails continue to arrive, meetings come and go, days turn into weeks, then months, and we have lost our ability to hear the voice of our Shepherd. He is our caretaker, provider, sustainer, defender, protector and friend. He calls us by name, leads us to still waters and restores our souls. This week’s...

This week’s “I AM” statement reminds us that Jesus is the light, and the light reveals not only where we are but directs us where we need to be. Jesus promises that those who have His light will never walk in darkness but always have the light of life. Sin and satan want to keep our minds, hearts, and actions in the dark, but the grace, love and mercy of Jesus fill our minds, hearts, and lives wit...

Throughout the book of John, Jesus compares something physical to something spiritual by saying “I AM the bread of life” in John 6. Jesus lets the crowd know He can provide so much more than the thing they crave and seek after, namely, physical things, physical bread. Jesus wanted them to know that He is the satisfier and sustainer of life, and that they must turn toward Him for everything and in...

Christ was raised so we were raised and we were raised to live a new life in Him and through His resurrection...therefore we are different because of His/your resurrection. In fact, the Matthew reading reads “then go quickly and tell His disciples that He is risen...” again, suggesting that the resurrection moves us to action.

Six hours, the darkest part of history, the Savior was killed for all mankind.

Jesus was given and shed for us. Join us as we celebrate communion together.
