There are times when life is difficult. I can’t think of anyone in Scripture that gives us a clearer example of not only the difficulty of life but also how to overcome that difficulty and follow Jesus fully. Paul tells us that he was shipwrecked three times, beaten with rods, stoned, beaten with lashes, put...

Peter: Following Through Failure
Scripture teaches us very plainly that we “all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” Viewing our stumbles, our weakness and our times of doubt as failure is a dangerous thing because it creates separation and isolation within us. During the Last Supper Jesus told Peter that he would deny Him three times...
Caleb: Following Through Disappointment
There was a recording difficulty this morning. Please go forward approximately 5 minutes to find where the recording of the sermon began. We all face disappointments in life. We have times in which our expectations are not met, in which the timing of God does not seem to line up with the timing we had hoped for...
Abraham: Following Through the Unknown
If Ruth taught us that following God through tragedy is all about love then Abraham teaches us that following through the unknown is all about trust! There will be many times in our lives in which we will be unsure of what comes next, the key to faith is learning that God is never in that...
Ruth: Following Through Tragedy
We are all called to be followers of Christ, to trust Him to lead us and to willingly stay near Him on the path of righteousness that He has purposed for our lives. In Scripture we find many examples of followers, each with their own path and their own purpose. I believe that in the...

Time to Follow
In Luke 9 Jesus said, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.” We were created to be followers of God, to set aside everything in this world and to chase after Him and Him alone. When Jesus approached the four fishermen that became...

The Great Equalizer
In a world filled with inequality and division Jesus’ cross and resurrection make us all equal. We all have sinned, we all are loved by God, we have all been given the opportunity to be free and we all have been called to a mission. I pray that we will all embrace the equality of...
When God Intends More Than We Expect
We have all had experiencing in our lives that id not meet our expectations. Usually when things don’t go our way we immediately believes that the outcome was wrong. This attitude can be very destructive to us when it comes to living and trusting in God’s will. His ways are perfect, even more, His ways...
