Good News Brings Great Joy

All of us love to hear and share good news. In Luke chapter 2, the Christmas story is referred to as good news and the result of hearing it brings great joy. The good news of Jesus is so much greater than anything else and it permanently produces joy both now and forevermore. Maybe we need to be reminded of the good news of Christmas and freshly receive the joy that responds to all that God has done in Christ.

Christmas Changes Everything | Pastor Randy Remington

God loved humanity so much that He sent Jesus, God as a man, to save us! Through Jesus we now know a lovingkindness and a tender mercy like none other, and we can now draw near to a heavenly Father who first loved us.

The Call to Give All | Mark 12:41-44

Jesus was asked what the greatest commandment was and He responded by saying, “Love God and love others.” Right after Jesus said these words, He showed His disciples what loving God looked like by highlighting a widow who gave all that she had to God through her temple offering. God doesn’t want us just to give Him a little money, He calls us to give Him our entire life.

Loving God | Mark 12:28-40

If you have been a Christian for any length of time there is no doubt that you have asked the question, “What does it really mean to love God?” Loving God is not as mysterious as it may seem. In Mark 12:28-40, Jesus is asked what the greatest commandment is and His answer not only satisfies the question but clarifies what it means to truly love God.

Growing Pains | Pastor Ryan Kim

Because we live in a broken world, we will all experience growing pains in this life. Yet James tells us to "count it all joy" when we experience trials of many kinds. When our faith is tested, we must get our heart right before Jesus, rather than get all the answers right.

God of the Living | Mark 12:18-27

What happens when you die? Christians believe what Jesus taught concerning resurrection and this causes us to live each day with hope for tomorrow. In Mark 12:18-27 we read about when Jesus is challenged with a question by some members of the Sadducees who don’t believe in life after death. This challenge is a perfect opportunity for Jesus to further demonstrate his wisdom and reiterate the teaching and hope of resurrection.

Loyal to One, Responsible to Many | Mark 12:13-17

At this point in the Gospel of Mark, the religious leaders are doing everything they can to discredit and remove Jesus entirely. They approach Him with a number of difficult questions that touch on both political and theological issues. These questions have the potential to divide the crowd and pique the interest of Roman authorities implying that an insurrection is in the making. Jesus sees through their questions and communicates a powerful message that while we are responsible to many in this life, ultimately, we can only be loyal to one.

The Marks of a Religious Spirit | Mark 11:27-33, 12:1-12

In Jesus' time, it was the religious leaders' duty to investigate the teachings and practices of other religious teachers. However, the fact that they could not discern Jesus as the true Messiah shows us that there was more going on spiritually than a general dullness of heart. Demonic power is alive and at work not only in the world but also in religious and even Christian circles in order to distort the truth and derail the church from the true mission of Jesus. What we observe in the religious leaders through this text is not far off from what can happen to us if we don’t stay humble before God and His Word.

When You’re Too Busy For God | Pastor Iziah Dawn

When our lives become filled with responsibilities, commitments, and everyday tasks the tendency is to put spiritual things and disciplines on the back burner. Pastor Iziah Dawn shows what happens when we become too busy for God and how a short story of two sisters in Luke 10 encourages us to choose the better thing…sitting at the feet of Jesus.
