- Nov 4, 2018What to Do When You are ExpectingWhat to Do When You are ExpectingLuke 7.18-23. What do you expect from Jesus? Honestly? All of us have our "great expectations" of what Jesus will do for us. Those impact our walk with God, sometimes for better and sometimes for worse. Jesus helps us set our expectations, so that our walk is sober, steady and straight!
- Oct 28, 2018Is He or Isn’t He?Is He or Isn’t He?Luke 7.1-10. Jesus taught us not to “judge” or “condemn” others (Luke 6:37), but what do we do about that man/woman in the mirror? Is she worthy? Is he? How do we know? What do the witnesses have to say? This week Jesus meets a man who is worthy, or maybe not! You be the judge!

That's a pretty important question when the person on the other end of the stethoscope is a medical professional! And we want a good report! Jesus puts a spiritual stethoscope to our hearts as He concludes His greatest message. What He hears makes all the difference in the world!
- Oct 14, 2018An Equal and Opposite ReactionAn Equal and Opposite ReactionLuke 6.37-42. Raise your hand if you love to be judged! No volunteers? None of us like to be judged by others, do we? Yet it is almost a knee-jerk reaction for each of us to judge what another person says, does or looks like. Jesus had a thing or two to say about my proclivity to judge. Let's consider His advice to us in Luke’s Gospel, chapter 6, and measure accordingly.

- Sep 23, 2018Less is MoreLess is MoreLuke 6.17-23. What do you expect? Most of us have a bunch of expectations! We set them, manage them, meet them, fail to meet them, understand and misunderstand them. We have professional expectations, marital expectations, parenting expectations, educational expectations, and religious expectations. Expectations set us up for success or set us off towards disappointment. In Luke 6:17-23 Jesus clarifies what we can expect if we choose to follow Him. He reminds us that pursuing God’s Kingdom is a stranger thing, an upside-down approach to life where “less is more.” Honestly.
- Sep 16, 2018Jesus’ CallingJesus’ CallingLuke 6.12-16. Some of you are stuck on the punctuation of my title. Some of you are looking for news on a Sarah Young book. In this sermon there will be no talk of punctuation or morning devotionals, but you will see Jesus' call to a few common men to be a part of his big rescue mission. Jesus has a plan but he needed then and needs people today to answer the call.
