Life is difficult for all people, regardless of their religious beliefs. Mark 4:35-41 describes a hardship the disciples encountered. While passing across the Sea of Galilee, they were hit by a storm. It was so great they feared for their life. Finally, at their wits’ end, they called out to Jesus who got up from […]
This message is the conclusion of the book of 1 John. In the final chapter, John tells the reader that there are three who testify that Jesus is the Son of God. Those John calls to the witness stand are rather unusual. Listen in! But the testimony is the same: Jesus is the Son of […]
In light of difficulty that life brings, you may not always feel like an overcomer. But if you have a relationship with God, through Jesus, the writer of 1 John says you are an overcomer. An overcomer’s heart is drawn to love the One who enables him/her to overcome. Love is demonstrated by obedience to […]
The Bible tells us in the book of 1 John that God is love. God’s love was demonstrated to humanity even though humanity didn’t love God. Paul writes in the book of Ephesians that because God does not tolerate sin, those who do nothing about their sin are objects of God’s wrath (2:1-4). This is […]

There are plenty of voices speaking into our lives on a daily basis. As believers in Jesus we must be careful to discern what voices are actually true verses voices that simply sound true.

God is known for His love so we might almost feel uneasy saying there is a love God hates! But we must be honest about this one. God isn’t willing to take second place in a person’s life. Yet how often are we drawn to that which the world offers in hopes of finding satisfaction […]
As we continue this study in 1 John, we discover a second ingredient that John says must be true if I genuinely am in the light: love for others within the body of Christ. In essence John tells us that talk is cheap but actions convey where we really are. If I claim to have […]
In this message we begin a study from the book of 1 John, credited as being written by the apostle John. In this letter John begins by describing his interactions with Jesus and the message received by Jesus. The message: God is light. John unpacks this truth by telling believers that claiming to live in […]
