Jesus never backed down from controversy, and He never backed down from telling the truth. Today's text is a difficult text, and it has caused controversy for nearly 2 millennia now. Let's consider it with the goal of application to our lives in 2024. - Pastor Kevin

Those who have believed in Jesus should be absolutely secure in knowing that they are His. There is nothing that can snatch us out of His hand. - Pastor Kevin

When we listen to (or read) the words of Jesus in the Gospels, we must be very, VERY careful to take His teachings in context. A failure to do this can lead to all sorts of misunderstandings of Christian doctrine and our responsibility as Christians to be obedient to our Lord. Hopefully, this message encourages us to this end. - Pastor Kevin

The people see Jesus as the Prophet; they aspire to make Him king; but they fail to consider His priestly work, enabling Him to be the One who comes to us in the storms of life. Let's not make the same mistake. - Pastor Kevin

The feeding of the 5,000 is the only miracle of Jesus that is recorded in all 4 Gospels. Let's consider it for a time to try and find out why. - Pastor Kevin

Today's text brings us to the end of the 'Divinity Sermon', one of the most powerful self-revelations of Jesus Christ concerning His equality with the Father. We are in a courtroom, with Jesus as the accused, and it doesn't go well for His accusers. In the words of a famous defendant, "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!" - Pastor Kevin

Things may seem dark right now, but according to the promise of Christ, they will not remain dark. He has a great work for His people and obedience to His command will transform the world. - Pastor Kevin

There are several important places mentioned in the Old Testament connected to the coming Messiah. Let's look at 3 of them and their significance. - Pastor Kevin

This sermon in John 5 is one of the clearest presentations that Christ ever gave of His own Deity. Then, He teaches what that means for you and me and our relationship with Him. - Pastor Kevin

Jesus heals a lame man on the Sabbath, intentionally provoking a confrontation with the religious/political elites in Judea. This week's text gives us some deep insight into the nature of man and his relationship with power. - Pastor Kevin

Think very carefully before you answer this question. Jesus asked it to a lame man beside the Pool of Bethesda, and it seems like the answer should be painfully obvious. But, maybe there's more to it than we imagine. - Pastor Kevin

Let's consider together this second of Jesus' miracles in the Gospel of John, and what it teaches us about God and about ourselves. I must apologize for the audio quality... I'm not sure what went wrong. - Pastor Kevin
