The Fig Tree
When I was in college I took a class on Early Christian History. It was not taught through a Bible college, it was a class I took at UNM because it gave me an extra history credit I needed and it was interesting to me. During the course of this class, we had to read some of the books of the …
A Song of Complaint and Praise
I really love King David’s Psalms. Here’s why: they are beautiful songs about the tension that David sometimes found himself in, between wanting to love the Lord with his whole heart and soul, mind and strength, but also being a broken person who had sinned and was tempted to sin and was liv…
Listen to Me
There is an Indian man who lives in Mumbai who is an anti-natalist. If you’ve never heard that term, what it means is that he believes that parents have no right to have children without the consent of the child, and since you can’t get a child to consent to being born before they’re born, t…
Communion
Guest Preacher Pastor Allison Storch
Ebenezer
It’s so funny, the things you think as a child. I grew up attending church regularly with my family until I was about 10, and I remember singing one of the songs we sang this morning, “Come Thou Fount”. It’s always been one of my favorite songs, even from childhood. But I remember always thi…
The Benefit of Wisdom
The last two weeks I’ve preached about two people, Barnabas and Phoebe, who both had an influence of the early ministry of Paul, who ministered with Paul, and who seems to have been influential in the success of the early church’s ministry as well. We saw the importance of encouraging others…
The Strength of Courage
You’ve likely heard the term “breaking the glass ceiling.” It was a term that was only coined in 1978, and it refers to difficulties faced by some in advancing to certain roles that have never been held before by someone like them. Originally, it referred to women having difficulties advanci…
The Power of Encouragement
Proverbs 18:21 says that death and life are in the power of the tongue. James 3 says that from the same mouth comes blessings and curses, and he goes on to talk extensively about the power of our words.
Maybe you’ve experienced something like this:
A young person was called…
Guest Sunday
Guest Preacher: Allison Storch, preaching from Romans 12:9-21
Go Tell
We have this habit in the church, of going straight from celebrating the Resurrection of Christ on Resurrection Sunday to looking forward to Pentecost when the gift of God’s Holy Spirit was poured out on all believers. We forget that there’s quite a bit that Jesus still did in between that t…
Missions Service with John Moore
Special Missions Service with Nazarene missionary John Moore. Hear what God is doing through His people all around the world!
Are You Proud? (James 4:6-8)
Are you proud? How many times has God asked you to do something, and you have either not done it or have done it halfway? Do you know why that is? It’s pride. When we do this, we’re saying, “I’m god of my life, and I know what’s best for me in this situation.”
The problem…
Jesus and Empathy
Just as with mindfulness that we looked more closely at in last week’s sermon, we have one more virtue I’ll be talking about in my Christian Character class that will help us better love others with the love of Christ, but isn’t something we often think about in Biblical terms. We understand…
