Richard takes us on a quick trip through Jude this week. Jude writes to believers, warning them to keep a strong faith and not allow it to waiver. Richard summarizes Jude’s encouragement in verses 20-25 as this: Stay Strong, Stay Merciful, Stand Blameless.
We take a look at Hannah’s prayer in 1 Samuel 2:1-10, after she was able to conceive a son and gave him up for service to the Lord. This is a great example of a prayer that can be modeled fro all believers. When Hannah’s prayer was answered, she followed through on her promise. Be […]
This week, we take a look at what happens after Easter in Acts 1:1-11. Easter was not the end of the story, it was just the beginning of our story. Without Easter, there wouldn’t be the Church. Because of Easter, Jesus’s story did not end; it kicked off a worldwide ripple and we have been […]
This Easter we take a look at why the Jesus’ story was written. We look at how Thomas’ story was recorded in John and how we can relate. We also see Jesus’ blessing for those who believe and have not seen. His story was written, so your’s can be rewritten.
Richard walks us through the triumphant entry that took place on Palm Sunday as we prepare for Holy Week in Matthew 21:1-11. The people knew who Jesus was when he entered, but by the end of the week they were calling for his crucifixion because he didn’t fit what they wanted. Even if Jesus isn’t […]
This week we look at the life-long process that all Christians go through, and never truly finish….. Growth. Paul writes to the Ephesians in chapter 4 noting the call of Christianity (1-10) and then spend time telling them that they should be growing as to not be tossed to and fro by the waves of […]
Richard continues the #OfCourse series this week, giving us a two-pointer out of the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 6. In this passage, Jesus teaches those in attendance how they should pray and how they should be fasting. It was not a question of if they should be doing these things, but how they […]
This week we take a look at Communion and what it meant for Jesus and the early Church. Jesus foreshadows the Lord’s Supper in John 6, and then Paul addresses the taking of Communion even more in 1 Corinthians. I’m a Christian, of course I take communion.
Richard starts a new series this week that will cover various practices that we do as Christians and explains why we do them. We start the series off with baptism, looking to the books of Matthew, Acts, Romans, and Galatians. I’m a Christian, of course I’ve been baptized.
Richard concludes the Simon Says series looking at the restoration of Simon Peter after last week’s look at the denial in John 21:15-19. God’s restoration is stronger than man’s rejection.
