Who Is Jesus? | Amazing (Mark 16:1-8)
In this sermon we talk about the amazing truth of Christ's resurrection and the amazing results that it has for our lives. Christ came to die and rise again, so that sinners could be restored to a right relationship with the Lord. That amazing truth should give us hope in dark times and inspire us to tell us about our amazing Jesus this Christmas!
Who Is Jesus? | Courage In The Darkness (Mark 15:40-47)
Mark 15:40-47 will show us the followers of Jesus who remained faithful to Him even after His death. Several women and Joseph of Arimathea showed courage in the darkness by continuing to live for Christ, even when it would have been extremely difficult to do so. Because of the gospel/good news of Christ's death and resurrection, we can find hope and courage even in the darkest moments of our lives.
When life is hard, what do I do?
What gives me hope and inspires courage in dark times?
Who Is Jesus? | The Son of God (Mark 15:33-39)
In this sermon our study through the Gospel of Mark brings us to the moment of Christ's death in 15:33-39. In this holy moment, we'll discover how Jesus was forsaken by God so that He might restore us to a right relationship with God. We'll also see how His work on the cross proves that He is the Son of God.
What did Jesus do on the cross for me?
How have I responded to His death?
Who Is Jesus? | The Mocked And Murdered King (Mark 15:16-32)
In this sermon we arrive at the crucifixion in Mark 15:16-32. We'll reflect on how Jesus was mocked, beaten, mistreated, and murdered. Yet, He took all of that punishment so that He could save us.
Why did Jesus suffer and why was He killed?
How do I respond to what Jesus has done for me?
Who Is Jesus? | The Rejected King (Mark 15:1-15)
In this sermon we'll look at Jesus' trial before the Roman governor, Pilate, in Mark 15:1-15. Even though Pilate seems to have all the power and the crowd rejects Jesus, Jesus is still the true King. He has all true power and authority and He is ultimately in control. He remains in control today, even when we turn away from Him.
He was rejected, so that we might be accepted by God.
Who has ultimate power in my life? How have I responded to Jesus Christ?
Who IS Jesus? (Mark 14:66-72)
Elder Dan continues our study through the Gospel of Mark. In Mark 14:66-72, we will learn about Peter's denial of Jesus and what it tells us about who Jesus really is.
What can I do to stay committed to Jesus?
What has Jesus done to commit Himself to me?
Who Is Jesus? | Betrayed, Abandoned, Oppressed, Yet Faithful (Mark 14:43-65)
In this sermon we will be looking at Jesus' arrest and trial before the religious leaders. He was betrayed by Judas, abandoned by His disciples, oppressed by the authorities, yet He still remained faithful. What can we learn about Him from His example? Come Sunday to find out!
Have I ever felt betrayed, abandoned, or oppressed?
What encouragement can I take from the fact that Jesus also experienced those things?
Who Is Jesus? | Not What I Will, But What You Will (Mark 14:32-42)
In this sermon we will look at Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane from Mark 14:32-42.
His example will challenge us with how we respond when our desires
collide with God's will. Will we be stubborn like the disciples? Or by
trusting in Jesus, will we follow His example by submitting to God's
will?
When my desires are not met, how do I respond?
Even when it is hard, will I submit to God's will?
Who Is Jesus? | Our God Is Faithful (Mark 14:26-31)
Pastor Tom will shares from Mark 14:26-31 about Jesus' prediction that His disciples would deny and abandon Him. Jesus knew from eternity past that they would deny Him and leave Him all alone, and yet, He still goes before them and claims them as His own. He does the same with us. When we are faithless, we can rest knowing that Jesus will be faithful.
How have I been faithless to Jesus?
How has He remained faithful to me?
Who Is Jesus? | Communion With Jesus (Mark 14:12-25)
In this sermon we look at the first Lord's Supper from Mark 14:12-25. This passage will teach us about our communion/relationship with Jesus. It is a communion based on God's character, but broken by our sin. However, Jesus' sacrifice restores our communion with God.
What breaks my relationship with God?
How can that relationship be restored?
Who Is Jesus? | A Story To Remember (Mark 14)
We continue moving through the book of Mark and study chapter 14 this week. Pastor Tom will retell the story of a woman anointing Jesus before he goes to the cross. We will see in her a heart for worship and dependence on Jesus. She doesn't trust in her wealth or anything she has, but solely in Jesus Christ.
Do I have any idols in my life that I need to rid myself of?
Who is in charge of my life; myself or Jesus?
Who Is Jesus? | Witnesses Who Endure (Mark 13)
In this sermon we will continue looking at what Jesus has to say about the future in Mark 13. He challenges us to be witnesses for Him and endure to the end. We can do that because God takes care of His own people and Jesus is coming back. We can count on Him, because His Word is true!
Am I a witness for Jesus?
What can help me endure to the end?
Who Is Jesus? | Stay Awake and On Guard (Mark 13)
Jesus will speak about His return in Mark 13. He will tell us that His followers are to be on guard against deception and that they should stay awake, alert, and ready, because Jesus is coming back! Why is it important to be on guard against deception? Am I ready for Jesus to come back?
Who Is Jesus? | The Love Of God (Mark 12:28-34)
Jesus is going to unpack the first and second greatest commandments from the Bible in Mark 12:28-34. Pastor Tom will help us discover that if we get the greatest commandment right, then all of the other commandments will fall into place.
Do I have a deep passion and hunger to love God more?
Do I desire to experience God's love? If not, why not?
Who Is Jesus? | The God Of The Living (Mark 12:18-27)
We continue our study through the Gospel of Mark in Mark 12:18-27. Last Sunday, Jesus talked about our relationship to the government here on earth. Now, He'll look at what our relationships with other people will look like in eternity. In heaven, some of our relationships will look a little different, but they will be perfect. We can have hope because our God is the God of living.
What do I think heaven will be like? How do I know that?
Who Is Jesus? | God and Government: What Do We Give To Each? (Mark 12:13-17)
In this sermon we talk about what Jesus thinks about the relationship between God and government from Mark 12:13-17. In this passage, Jesus uses His God-given authority to teach us what we owe God and what we owe the government that God has placed us under.
What do I owe God? What do I owe the government?
Who Is Jesus? | Who Are The People Of God? (Mark 12:1-12)
We continue our study through the Gospel of Mark in Mark 12:1-12. In this passage, Jesus uses a parable to explain that those who reject God's servants and reject His Son are not His people. Rather, God's people are those who embrace Jesus Christ, the cornerstone of our faith.
Who are God's people? How do I know if I am part of God's people?
Who Is Jesus? | Who Is Your Authority? (Mark 11:27-33)
In this sermon we talk about the concept of authority from Mark 11:27-33. Who is in charge of our lives? Are we controlled by what we want or what other people think? Or have we submitted to the authority of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ?
Who is in charge of my life?
Does Jesus' authority make a difference in my life?
Who Is Jesus? | Faithless vs Faithful Worship (Mark 11:12-25)
We look at the powerful account of Jesus driving money-changers out of the temple from Mark 11:12-25. This dramatic story will teach us about the faith and worship that pleases God. He is not interested in fruitless worship that doesn't have impact on how we live. Rather, our Lord is pleased by faith that leads us to pray and trust in God alone.
How do I worship God?
What does it mean to depend on God?
Is that the attitude that I have when I pray?
