Jesus Going to Jerusalem
For many people it can be a dreadful thing for someone to borrow something from us. We are reluctant when somebody asks us and fearful that if the item is given that we will never see it again. We are anxious in awaiting its return to us, but what if that item was to serveContinue reading “Jesus Going to Jerusalem”
The Breath of Jesus
Many people today are looking for a fresh new start in their life. People will make new years resolutions, buy self-help books, take up a new hobby, and look to countless methods of bringing a newness and purpose into their existence. The sad truth is that many will quit and all will still be searchingContinue reading “The Breath of Jesus”
The Lamb of God – John 1:29-34
What is your Jesus story? In other words, what is your personal testimony? It may seem difficult at times to share our faith, but doing so is important to our faith. By the Holy Spirit, God strengthens and gives us the boldness to share what coming to Jesus in faith has done. He helps usContinue reading “The Lamb of God – John 1:29-34”
Let Jesus be in Me
Last week was our church’s Vacation Bible School. We had an awesome turnout of about 45 people throughout the week. We used the previous year’s VBS resources from Answers in Genesis. By using the previous year, we were able to get the supply kit for half-price. We believed this to be a great stewardship ofContinue reading “Let Jesus be in Me”

The fifth word of seven is, “I thirst.” John 19:28-29 28 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst. 29 Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar:Continue reading “Seven Sayings: I Thirst”
Seven Sayings: My God, My God, Why hast Thou Forsaken Me
Jesus was on the cross for six hours at this point. It was about 3pm (the ninth hour of the day). Up to this point, we have seen a great bit of detail about the physical side of Jesus’ crucifixion. In this fourth statement, we are now fully introduced to the deeper anguish pressing down on the Savior.Continue reading “Seven Sayings: My God, My God, Why hast Thou Forsaken Me”
Seven Sayings: Behold thy…
John 19:25-27 In the previous two statements made by Jesus on the cross, we were given a glimpse into the salvific power of Christ. The intercessory work was demonstrated through Jesus’ prayer to the Father over the ignorance of the crowds.

Seven Sayings: Today
The second sermon in our series, “Seven Sayings from the Cross” comes from Luke 23:35-43. Everything Jesus did and said had a purpose. There were no wasted movements or waster breath with Him.
