Religion Kills – Jesus Saves

Genealogies in the Bible. Most people think they are boring to read so they pass right over them. But they are actually fascinating to see how God preserved the lineage from Adam to Abraham and then to Jesus. But in the Gospel of Matthew and Luke there are two different genealogies for Jesus seem contradictory. What is that all about?

Discouragement. We all feel it. The sickness won’t go away. The marriage is on the rocks. The kids are a disaster. So how can we stop from being discouraged? Join us today as we continue in the book of Acts.

John the Baptist. He had a ministry. He promoted Jesus before Jesus showed up. But then he was thrown in prison and beheaded. What? Join us today as we talk about the cost of following Jesus.

We know people who all their life wanted nothing to do with God. But then one day – EVERYTHING changes. Suddenly the good news of Jesus makes sense to them. Suddenly they WANT to follow Him. But what happened? It’s as if they were spiritually dead and then became spiritually alive. Join us today as we see what Jesus says happened as we continue in the Gospel of John. 

Discouragement. Life just brings that on. But what should we do when we feel discouraged? What does the Bible say God does when we are discouraged? Join us as we continue our study in the Book of Acts.

If Jesus showed up at your house, what would He find? This was John the Baptist’s job to prepare people for the arrival of Jesus. But what does that look like? Join us today as we continue in Luke.

Recently there have been more and more UFO or UAP sightings. Should we be concerned about what people are seeing? What are they? Extraterrestrials in spaceships coming to our planet? What does the Bible have to say about this? Join us as we continue in the Gospel of John.

Nothing ever happens in our life that God does not know about or that He isn’t in control of. That is such good news and our job is to surrender our lives to this amazing God so we can be used by Him on this earth. Join us today as we see how the early disciples felt about God after Peter and John’s release from jail!

God can use anyone and when He needs something done He often uses the most unlikely people in the most amazing ways! Today we will see that as John the Baptist steps on the scene. This is a man who yells and is rude to the religious leaders of his day. A man who dresses like he is homeless and who eats bugs. But this is a reminder that God can use anyone -even someone like that to fulfill His purpose. Join us as we continue in Luke.

Times are changing and because of that, Pastors should be teaching the Bible. Pastors should be preparing their people to stand up amidst persecution. Pastors should be telling people what Jesus said it means to follow Him which consists of counting the cost. Taking up our cross. Seeking His Kingdom over ours.  Is that what we are hearing on Sunday mornings?
