John 5:25-45 / In this study, Jesus continues his line of argument against the Jewish leaders who were enraged that he made himself equal with God the Father. Jesus provides us with a proclamation of his deity as well as an thorough apologetic. We listen to Jesus as he not only declares his power and authority, but provides four witnesses to his divine identity

John 5:18-24 / After Jesus healed the certain man on the Sabbath, many of the religious leaders were upset, but that alone was not enough to stoke their desires to kill him; the Jewish leaders wanted to kill Jesus because he claimed he was God. In our study, we are going to look at the scriptural evidence that Jesus was who he said he was, Jehovah - the existing one. We are going to also look at the specific claims that he makes and unpack what they mean for the world, but also for us as forgetful Christians.

John 5:1-17 / Jesus once again returns to Jerusalem for a feast celebration. While there he comes across a multitude of people with severe ailments waiting by an ancient pool, hoping in the second hand promises of a miracle. Jesus engages with a certain man who is unable to walk, and calls him to receive healing - and he does! This certain man receives such a wonderful gift, but responds to that blessing in a very peculiar but unsurprising way.

John 4:46-54 / Upon Jesus’ return to Cana, a man seeks him in desperation. He has heard that Jesus is capable of great miracles and in his hour of need decides to leave his dying son’s bedside to find Jesus and ask for his mercy. When Jesus meets him, he challenges the motivations of his request. The result of their interaction is a story of God’s grace and how faith grows when we choose to rely on the promises of Christ.

John 4:31-45 / Jesus knew his mission. Christ had devoted his faith, his time and his energy into doing exactly what the Father asked - and it was deeply satisfying to him. The twelve disciples on the other hand, they were just getting started; they were easily distracted and often misunderstood the goals of their work. In this sermon, we listen as Christ helps correct their temporal thinking and gives them eyes to see just how fulfilling it can be to labor in the fields of the Lord.

John 4:1-30 / Jesus had an appointment to get to; regardless of the pressure from his friends, the inconvenience of his journey and the cultural lines he had to cross, Jesus had a woman he needed to meet. When he arrived he delivered a message that would change everything about her life and impact everyone she knew.

John 3:22-36 / A group of religious Jews and a handful of John the Baptist’s disciples came to him to inquire about his ministry in relation to Jesus. They sought to inquire about the possibility of contention between John and Jesus. John graciously instructs them on the doctrine of salvation through Christ, but also what it means to be humble in ministry.

John 3:8-21 / A Pharisee named Nicodemus seeks Jesus to inquire about spiritual matters and Jesus provides him with four illustrations to help him understand the salvation that he brings. John chapter 3 helps us to fully understand the gravity of the gospel message and what it means for our souls.

John 3:1-7 / A Pharisee named Nicodemus seeks to ask Jesus questions about his identity and his views on spiritual matters, but when he arrives Jesus begins answering all the questions Nicodemus never knew to ask. In this study, we look at Christ’s call to “be born again” and discuss what this means in our story and what it means for our lives.

John 2:13-25 / Are you struggling with making Christianity about you? Has worship and ministry grown stale? After the wedding in Cana, Jesus and his disciples go to Jerusalem to celebrate the passover. When Jesus arrives, he finds something seriously wrong with the way in which people are approaching God in worship. Jesus responds in a way that is befitting the offense, a reaction that precisely deals with the false religion, cheap worship and empty symbols he finds in the temple of God.

John 2:12 / Jesus and his disciples are invited to a marriage feast in Cana of Galilee, but when the wedding party runs out of wine, Jesus’s mother requests that he do something miraculous. In the first public miracle of Jesus we learn about faith, expectation and what it means to always be ready to obey Christ.

John 1:43-50 / Jesus is beginning to gather disciples to follow him and learn from him. Philip of Bethsaida begins following Jesus and in his zeal goes to find his friend Nathanael to share that he had found the Messiah, but Nathanael is resistant. Like many of our friends and family, Nathanael holds a bias that becomes an impediment to the gospel. In this sermon we learn how to reach those who seem to be hindered in their view of Jesus.

John 1:29-42 / As we continue in our story, John the Baptist reveals Messiah and points his disciples to Jesus. As those disciples spend time with Jesus, it produces a desire to invite others to experience the goodness of Christ as well. This portion of the Gospel of John provides us with incredible insight into what it means to have a personal relationship with Christ and to understand ministry the way God intended.

John 1:14-28 / Do you know who you are and what you have been made for? Many Christians don’t. The purpose of our Christian faith is often clouded by our culture, pragmatism, elitism, politics, entertainment and other distractions that only serve to make us tepid and ineffectual. In this sermon, John the Baptist serves as an example of what it means to know what we’ve made for and unabashedly embrace our cause.

John 1:1-13 / Of the four gospels, John most clearly magnifies that divine attributes of Jesus. The opening of this gospel declares Jesus as God, but more than that, it defines what that means in terms of humanities relationship to him. Join us as we begin this wonderful journey through the Gospel of John.
