How does God's grace help us when we turn away from Him?
Scripture: Mark 14:27-31

Last week we looked at Joshua and David. Joshua defeated Jericho but when he lost a battle to Ai his response was extreme. David was a man after God's own heart yet he committed adultery and had her husband killed. Today we'll look at Peter and see how he was just like us.
JUST LIKE US (part six) Joshua was the successor to Moses. No one in the entire nation of Israel believed they could conquer Canaan except him and Caleb. When he was leading them into battle against Jericho, God told him to march around the city seven times and blow the trumpets and the wall would ...read more

Have you ever been cautioned - never say never? Peter and the disciples were told they would deny and desert the Lord, but they vehemently denied they would ever commit such an act. We must seek the Lord and His strength to endure.
Warned of Denial and Desertion Mark 14: 27-31 Our text reveals a critical moment in the lives of the disciples. They had just enjoyed the Last Supper with Jesus in the Upper Room. Having departed, they are making their way to the Garden of Gethsemane. While they are completely unaware, Jesus will ...read more

Communion emphasizes our common unity in Christ. Message focuses on Communion's connections to Passover and ends with some correctives to help us not approach this meal in an unworthy manner.

When it comes to failure and sin in your life, you have two options. You can try to hide it, or you can admit it.
INTRODUCTION This is a message about how to overcome failure. If you’ve never failed, then you are free to leave now so you can beat the Methodists to the restaurants. But if you’ve ever failed, God has a word for you today. Let me tell you the true story of Walter. He grew up in a very ...read more
