The Time That Has Passed
As we continue to mature in our walk with Christ, the things we learn should change our attitudes and actions. In 1 Peter 4, followers of Jesus are encouraged to leave their sin in the past and live their new lives by His example.
Just As He Said
As Jesus prepares to enter Jerusalem, things happen exactly as the prophecies said they would. This moment where He is recognized as King is another great reminder of God’s power and faithfulness. We can have faith in what He says.
Renewed
In Luke 18 and 19 there are two men with two very different needs. The blind man simply wants sight. Zacchaeus is probably hated by his community and seeks acceptance and forgiveness. Both of their lives are immediately made new by the power of encountering Jesus.
Suffering For Good
As much as we do not like to experience it, suffering is a part of life. in 1 Peter 3 we are reminded that suffering can result in good things and that Jesus is a great example of that truth. As we tell that story we also know that after His suffering, He won the […]

The Will of God
Each month in 2019, we will spend one Sunday evening addressing a question submitted by one of our church members. This week we discuss this question, “Do we use the phrase ‘It was God’s plan’ to much?” We will look at the difference between God’s wish, God’s will and God’s plan, and how these things […]
Harvest
The instructions Jesus gives to the 72 sent out in Luke 10 offer us great insight as to how the world around us reacts to Christians and the story of Jesus. Like them, we should stay encouraged and motivated to tell others the good news.

Your Will Be Done
In 1 Peter 2, Peter describes how part the will of God relates to how we interact with each other. Although we often think about God’s will for us, we glorify Him by honoring others.
