He is Risen! Enjoy this message for Resurrection Sunday as we examine evidence for the resurrection.

What's the big deal about Palm Sunday? Early on in Jesus's ministry, after performing a healing Jesus would often admonish those around Him not to tell anyone about the miracle. And when the masses wanted to make Him the King after He miraculously fed the thousands, Jesus went away by Himself because it was not yet His time. Then at the end of His ministry, Jesus would enter Jerusalem before the P...

Do you get your financial advice from the world or from the Word? Over the past few weeks in our study on generosity, we've looked at the purpose of the Church as the hands and feet of Christ in the world and how we fit into that body of Christ. We learned about the generous heart of our God for us and how that should be the basis for our own generosity. And we looked through passages of the Old a...

What DOES the Bible actually say about giving? Last week we continued our series on Generosity, looking at the foundations of giving by learning from the heart of God. The heart of our loving Father who gives to us a new heart when He makes us a new creation in Christ. He calls us to follow His example, so how do we live generously in light of that?  This week we will dig into the principles...

How do we have a heart like God's? Last week as we began our new series on Generosity, we spent time looking at what the Church is and how we're supposed to function as members of the Church. We learned that everyone--sinners and saints alike--needs the Church, and we talked about how gathering together as the Body of Christ fulfills our needs for God's people, God's principles, God's purpose, and...

Talking about money isn't spiritual! This week we begin a 4-part series looking at what the Bible has to say about generosity and giving, and we will discover that it is indeed a very spiritual topic. Together we will look at what God has to say to his people about why we give, what we give, and how we give. But it all starts with understanding what this thing called Church really is.  The Ch...

Welcome to this last study in our series through Revelation. How has the study of Revelation changed you? Back in Revelation 1:3, before John began writing down his apocalyptical vision of the Day of the Lord, he wrote down a special blessing on those who listen to the words of this final book of the Bible. As we come to the last chapter of Revelation, let's spend some time reflecting on our study...

Is Jesus your source? In John's vision of what is to come after the great and terrible Day of the Lord, John has seen heaven and earth remade and watched the glorious city of New Jerusalem descend out of heaven from God. A city whose foundations were made of vibrant jewels and whose gates are made of precious pearls and whose inhabitants are the Bride of Christ. But what more is the...

Are you living as the Bride of Christ? The City of Jerusalem, the city of peace that has seen wars and conflict and strife, the center of so many Old Testament prophecies, the city Jesus wept over and the city Jesus will reign from when He comes again. When God makes a new heaven and a new earth, will the City of Jerusalem still have a place of significance in eternity?  This week we'll conti...

What Makes a Home, Home? This week we will continue to study through Revelation 21 and the new heaven and new earth that God will make. We'll see what kind of words God uses to describe our eternal home and look at what kind of people will be there--and what kind won't be there. And finally we'll learn the importance of continually evaluating our own lives according to the eternal truth of the Wor...

What will Heaven really be like? After John saw a vision of Jesus walking among His churches on earth, John was caught up into the heavens where he sees God on His heavenly throne. He then observes the events of the last days from that perspective of heaven: the great tribulation, the return of Christ to earth, the millennial reign of Christ, then the final judgment over all creation. But when God...

Which resurrection will you be a part of? This week we will continue our study through Revelation 20, and compare and contrast the two resurrections that take place before and after the Millennial Kingdom. We'll look at Old and New Testament verses that teach on both resurrections and study the final judgment that is coming for all mankind. We'll see a resurrection to eternal, abundant life and a...

Why do you love? When we talk about love in the Bible what Scriptures come to mind? Perhaps Jesus's words that love is the greatest commandment. Or the famous definition of love from 1 Corinthians 13. But how much do we really know about our calling to love God and love others? And what can we do in the areas where we are falling short? This week we start off 2024 with a study on Biblical love fro...

This week for the New Year, we looked together at the work that God has done here at Hosanna Christian Fellowship over the past year, and then we looked ahead at the upcoming opportunities we have to work the works of God. Then we studied through a portion of Philippians 3 to learn from God's Word how to pursue the ultimate goal: Jesus Christ.

Why does a loving God allow evil in the world? In this week's message, we'll continue studying Revelation 20 and look again at what the Bible teaches about the millennial kingdom of Christ in regards to the imprisonment of the serpent of old, Satan. What will a world ruled by righteousness look like, and why would God allow Satan to be loosed again to lead one last rebellion in the earth? And if h...

Are you watching for the coming kingdom? In this week's message, we'll begin looking at Revelation 20 and study through all the Scriptures to piece together what the coming kingdom of Christ will be like. We'll look at the difference between the Millennial Kingdom and our eternal state, whether 1000 years really means 1000 years, and what the earth will be like during this time. Our Father in heav...

Who can make war against the Beast? Jesus, the conquering King of kings can. This week, we'll finish studying Revelation 19 and see Christ's victory over the armies of the Antichrist at His second coming.

Is Jesus the King of all kings in your life? This week, we'll continue reading in Revelation 19 and study John's vision of the second coming of Christ.

When was the last time we shouted a heartfelt "Hallelujah!" This week, we will begin studying Revelation 19 and look at heaven give a shout of "Hallelujah!"
