Sermons on Jesus
Not What We Expected
In this special Holiday edition of the podcast, John covers the nativity and what the birth of Christ means to us!
When we picture the birth of Jesus, we look back to the familiar scenes that adorn Christmas cards and lawn decorations. It’s depicted as serene and almost sterile. Historically we know this wasn’t so. The King of all Creation was born into this world in a dirty, drafty, smelly barn essentially. His crib was a container for feeding cattle. Is this what you would have expected from the birth of our God? Probably not.
God so often does things in a VERY unexpected, but more effective way than what we would do.
An Examination of the Trial, Execution and Death of Jesus
This week Jim delves into the specifics and meanings of the trial of Jesus Christ as well as his crucifixion and death. What does it mean for us now? What was it like for the Apostles and early followers of Christ?
The Bride of Christ On Display
The Church is seen as married to Christ throughout the New Testament. We’ve all been to weddings and have seen the bride come down the Isle in all her splendor. That is what God wants for His Family. We should put ourselves on display as a good example and a shining light in the world.
The Forgotten Day in the Life of Jesus
There are many days in the life of Jesus that we remember: his birth, his crucifixion, his ascension. But most likely there is one day in his life that most of us has forgotten. Do you know what it is?
This week Richard will tell you all about it. Did you guess right?
Raised To Die No More
This week Richard explains how in Christ we will never truly die. But we have been raised, as Jesus was raised from the dead to never die again. Death is a facto of life that many people live in fear of and are a slave to. However, with Jesus Christ as our savior, we who are in the Kingdom of God need never live in fear of death.
My Body, My Blood
On the day before his death, Jesus came together with his Apostles to eat the Passover Meal, remembering God’s great deliverance of Israel from their years of slavery in Egypt. This would be no ordinary night. Jesus would take the bread and cup of the Passover meal and reinterpret them in terms of his own body and blood.
