The first gentile Christian

Sunday Nov 28, 2021

We look at the first gentile who is documented in the Bible as being baptized, and we consider a man who was sick in the hospital and who considered himself a Christian, and yet wanted to finally be formally baptized.  We see that in both cases, an individual must make the commitment and go from being a believer to being a fully committed believer.

Waves

Sunday Nov 21, 2021

I grew up in Southern California.  When I was young, I tried very hard to learn to surf.  I never became much of a surfer: I was tossed around badly by the waves.  We look at the Book of James where we are told that our faith must not be weak, like a wave blown by the wind.  In Ephesians, we are told that our faith must not be tossed to and fro by waves.  We look at the use of ocean waves as a metaphor for the intense power that our faith must be able to withstand.

700 pounds in the road

Sunday Nov 07, 2021

My wife and I were recently driving up into the Rocky Mountains when we came across a 700 pound bull elk standing in the road, blocking traffic.  He calmly stared down the driver of the first car in a long line of cars all waiting for that elk to move.  We must be like that elk in the road, making ourselves seen, showing the world what it means to live like a true Christian.

Worshipping humans

Sunday Oct 31, 2021

When Paul and Barnabas were evangelizing in Lystra, they were mistaken for Greek gods - Zeus and Hermes.  The people wanted to worship them accordingly.  But Paul and Barnabas know that only God can be worshipped, and so despite the fact that this puts them at great physical risk, they refuse to be taken as gods.  We look at the issue of how we, today, tend to worship celebrities.  They have become our pagan gods.
