The Way of Jesus

The Way of Jesus

Mary Anoints Jesus

John 12: 1-8 Sometimes accepting grace and help is hard. Jesus shows us how to receive a lavish gift. Mary seems to get it, when others don’t and she performs a moving act of worship.

The Parable of the Fig Tree

Luke 13: 6-9 This is really part 2 to last week’s sermon. Repentance means admitting wrong, and changing by taking a step in faith. We will also explore the connection between “bearing fruit” and repentance. God is patient.

Repent or Perish

Luke 13:1-5 The past few weeks have focused on identifying sin, this message will emphasize handling the sin via repentance. Repentance means admitting wrong, and changing by taking a step in faith. We will also explore the connection between “bearing fruit” and repentance.

 A Prophet’s Destiny

 Luke 13: 31-35 In this text Jesus’s pushes through and continues to love and serve Israel (ultimately by going to the cross) even as Israel continually rejects him. We will be challenged to look and see in what ways we are fighting/rejecting what God is doing. Then we will be moved to worship as we realize God pursues us, even as we reject him.   Full service video

The Temptations

Luke 4: 1-13 We will look at the three temptations of Christ and see how they are representative of three of the biggest temptations we face; hedonism, thirst for power, and desire for fame/recognition.
