John’s gospel, written to believers who would remain after the one remaining apostle’s death, is a gospel directed to us today. In Jesus’ absence it would be the disciple’s responsibility, and by extension our responsibility, to carry on the work that Jesus had started. In the closing chapter of the gospel of John, the author has an encounter with Peter that reveals 3 things; 1) Jesus’ calling for each of us is personal, 2) His calling is costly, 3) It…

Bernard Madoff went to prison on June 29, 2009 for stealing 65 billion dollars by lying to his friends, family, and fellow Jewish networks. At times, he acted like a devout Sabbath keeper.

Scripture: Exodus 1:17-21; Joshua 2; John 7; Heb 11 “When God’s People Lie” preached by Pastor John K.…

Not On My Watch
This is Memorial Day weekend. We honor those who stood up to evil and said “Not On My Watch.” Thankfully, besides the military, the police, and the fire-fighters, we have a guardian to protect us. He is identified in John 10. Last week He spoke to us and said “I Am The Light Of The World.” What is He going to say this week?

Trust Trap
John 8: 5 In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” 6 They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. According to Stephen Covey, author of the bestseller entitled “The Speed of Trust,” four kinds of trust exist: blind trust, smart trust, no trust, distrust.

Come and See
The gospel of John was written to the 2nd generation church. That is, the church who would no longer have an eye witness to Jesus’ death. John was aware that his death was no longer in the distant future. How will the church survive, no longer having an eye witness to minister and encourage them? Today, all Christians are members of that 2nd generation church. When we have failed, or grow discouraged, or at times even unsure of our faith…
