As Jesus approached the Cross, the weight of His calling began to press on Him. Last week we looked at when Jesus said, “My soul is troubled”. The journey is too much for all of us, but if we let God, He will bear it. He promised to never leave us or forsake us. He...

“Troubled for His Glory” John 12:27-28
In our verses this morning we read that Jesus was troubled by the will of God, but He also found His purpose in being troubled. Often, we want to avoid any feelings of trouble or maybe we expect God to keep us from trouble, but Jesus teaches us that being in God’s will requires us...
“The Hour, the Seed and the Harvest” John 12:23-26
In our passage this morning, Jesus is speaking clearly and is surrounded by listeners. He gives a word that is necessary for their time and for our time. A word that highlights three things: the hour, the seed and the harvest. The hour here is not about a specific date or time, but rather it...
Abie & Peggy’s Trip to the Philippines
This Sunday we had the pleasure of hearing from Abie and his mom, Peggy, as they shared about their recent trip to the Philippines. I encourage you to listen to their message and hear how they tell of how God has worked in and through “Christ to the Philippines” in these last 50 years, how...
“The Greeks” John 12:20-22
Right after we read about the triumphal entry, we read about a group of Greeks wanting to talk to Jesus. Why are these almost seemingly out of place verses here? These are a group of Greeks who had come to worship, they wanted to celebrate Passover. They are a group of gentiles who had forsaken...
“The King is Coming” John 12:12-19
What happens when our excitement causes us to create unreal or even wrong expectations? Do we run with excitement or let patience and endurance have its work? What do we do when excitement wears off? There is a danger when we tend to find ourselves seeking an experience rather than allowing something to be built....
“The Purpose of Poorness” John 12:1-11
Worship is complicated. Worship can be musical, but there is far much more to it than that. Worship is not about us; worship is about God because it flows from what we have received from Him. Worship must be offered in obedience to the Spirit and Word of God. In our text, Mary pours out...
Melissa Kulynych “The Goodness and Severity of God” Romans 11:17-36
This Sunday we had the joy of hearing from our worship pastor, Melissa Kulynych. The vastness, beauty, and sovereignty of God is unfathomable. Do we see His goodness even in our difficulties? Do we see His goodness even in our disobedience? It is not God’s will that we would sin, but in His goodness, He...
“Expedience or Extravagance” John 12:1-8

“Fellowship” John 11:53-57
We are a people of expectations. We have been conditioned to believe that one thing leads to another. For most, our expectations are established from our wants and what we think we need. We want outcomes to meet our expectations and to be what we desire, but God wants outcomes to challenge our thinking and...
