Jesus Wants to Meet You

Our most recent sermon was based on John 4:1-42 and entitled, “He Had To Meet You.” I would encourage you to read through that section of scripture, as it is an incredible story about the heart of Jesus toward people in the margins. John tells us that Jesus had to go through Samaria, which is…

What the Wind and the Holy Spirit Have in Common (and Why it Matters!)

Are you the kind of person who is willing to go wherever the wind takes you? Maybe, as Christ-followers, we should all be! Look at what Jesus says to the middle of his memorable conversation with Nicodemus: John 3:7–8 (CSB) “Do not be amazed that I told you that you must be born again. The…

What do you do when your wine runs out?

One of the privileges of being a pastor is the opportunity to not only attend but often participate in weddings. I have heard beautiful vows and have experienced the fear of rain at weddings. I am sure you have stories of some of your most memorable weddings. As an officiant, I have some memorable moments…

Who is Jesus?

“Hey Google, how many Google searches happen every day on Google?” This was something that I asked Google this past week and the answer I found was staggering.

Where Was Jesus Before the Gospels?

Have you ever thought about what Jesus was up to before the incarnation, before Christ came as an infant? For millennia, theologians have marveled at what it means that Jesus has eternally existed as the Lord, Yahweh, the God of Israel. This is part of the larger revelation of the Trinity, and without getting lost…

Made For More Than Manna

You are made for more. This is something we have been talking about weekly as we go through a sermon series in the book of Joshua. Some of these passages and themes are accessible and easy to get excited about. Others, however, might cause us to raise an eyebrow, grit our teeth, or scratch our…

Where Does Courage Come From?

“Be strong and very courageous” (Joshua 1:7, NLT) God said to Joshua. These are the kinds of instructions you receive when something risky or dangerous lies ahead. For Joshua, taking possession of the promised land would not be like taking a stroll through Disneyland, where all the thrill and adventure are preset to come out…

When We Look Like Our Heavenly Father

Many of us resemble our parents, whether we take that as a compliment or not! Maybe you say certain phrases they do, or you do a routine chore in a specific and quirky way. Hopefully, we can take the good and learn from the rest when it comes to resembling our parents. But how about…
