Guest Speaker: Steve Krier, Converge Heartland District President
We are going to have our district president being interviewed by Pastor Bear. They will be discussing the district, future plans, and Steve’s goals and vision for the district.
“John: Church Isn’t Going to Cut It”
The stage continues to be set for the upcoming “trial” and crucifixion of Jesus. In today’s passage we’ll see where Jesus sticks with His message that only belief in Him matters which continues to infuriate the Jews.
“John: Lessons About Church Leadership”
In John 10, Jesus gives us some lessons in what good church leaders look like. These principles are good to know whether you are in leadership, want to be in leadership, or will have a role in choosing leadership.
John: I Am Thankful We Have a Shepherd
Today is our annual Thanksgiving Sunday. In today’s message, we are going to learn why those who believe in Jesus have much to be thankful for and why we can have hope and joy in a messed up world.
“John: I Once Was Blind”
It seems to be a human trait to miss what is right in front of us. We are all guilty of this. To say otherwise is to miss what is right in front of you! Today’s lesson will challenge us to open our eyes to see, really see, what God is doing and what He […]
Did the Devil Make You Do It?
Sometimes it takes great courage to speak the truth. We’ll see that in the sermon today. It also takes strong character to hear and absorb the truth. This we won’t see. Today we’ll be challenged to think about which response better describes us and consider who it is who is really controlling our lives.
John: What Do You Know? – Pastor Bear
We’ve all met people who don’t really know what they think they know. Sometimes, to our embarrassment, that person is us. Today Jesus confronts both believers and unbelievers with this reality and challenges us to make sure we actually know what we say we know!
A Matter of Life or Death
Not all of us enjoy thinking about the after-life. That’s because we have questions about what comes “after life”. Today’s passage gives us a glimpse of what to expect and warning we would do well to not ignore.
“John: How Do We Know Truth?”
Does it ever seem like truth keeps getting harder to find? Today we’re going to unpack a message Jesus gave in defense of accusations against Him: people were calling Him a liar! His defense will help us further trust His words and cement our hope for the future.
John: Sand Notes
The woman caught in adultery and Jesus writing in the sand is one of the most beloved stories found in our Bibles today. This story is not without some controversy but regardless of the tension, there is still a lesson to be gained from this account.
