Same Power

Pastor Jeremy leads us through Mark 12:18-27 in his sermon, SAME POWER. Handout download: The Believer’s Bodily Resurrection The Sadducees Ask About the Resurrection 18 And Sadducees came to him, who say that there is no resurrection. And they asked him a question, saying,  19 “Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife, but leaves no child, the man must take the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.  20 There were seven brothers; the first took a wife, and when…

Ownership, Direction and Belonging

In the book of Mark we see Jesus’ enemies trying to trap him with a question about paying taxes. In his reply, Jesus reveals three important lessons about God’s priorities and the created order He established. Listen as Pastor Jeremy teaches from Mark 12:13-17 in the message: Ownership, Direction and Belonging: OWNERSHIP – God owns us. We belong to Him and are made in His image. DIRECTION – God’s ownership of my life determines my destiny. BELONGING – If God…

Marvelous In Our Eyes

We want to move one step closer to Jesus everyday. One way we do that is by studying what Jesus teaches us in the Gospels. Listen as Pastor Jeremy begins our new summer sermon series in Mark 12:1-12 in the message, “Marvelous In Our Eyes.” God shows us three things about redemption in the book of Mark: – God has a plan. – People reject God’s plan. – God redeems rejection and it is marvelous in our eyes.

A Gift

Good Friday is a gift. We can do nothing to gain God’s favor. Christ did it all for us when He died on the cross. It was a gift given to those who believe. Jesus took our sins and gave us His righteousness. Those who don’t yet believe have to choose to believe, accept this gift, love God with all of your mind, strength and heart, and tell someone who can help you grow spiritually. Believers are to love God…

Lessons From a Fig Tree

How does Jesus control nature, and why is Jesus more concerned with your spiritual hunger than your physical hunger?

Stratego: What is God’s?

Like the game of Stratego or Risk, in the Gospel of Mark we see Jesus strategically arranging the pieces on the board. Jesus is completely and absolutely in control of every single detail… including the details in your life. What we need most is not salvation from our political enemies… it’s salvation from ourselves. God’s strategy is to build His kingdom. Listen as Pastor Jeremy teaches us from Mark 11:1-11. Sermon Series: Encounter the Incredible 3Sermon Title: Stratego: What is…

The Right Cup

Are you ever envious or jealous of what others have and feel like you should be able to have the same? Are you measuring yourself compared to the people around you? Your responses demonstrate your heart. Jesus asked, “What do you want me to do for you?” (Mark 10:36). Listen as Pastor Jeremy teaches us from the Gospel of Mark and learn about the cup of wrath that Jesus took for you:1) The Cup we want2) The Cup we get3)…

Three Questions

What do you want Jesus to do for you? Do you see Jesus accurately? Sometimes our view of Jesus becomes fuzzy. In Mark 10:46-52, Bartimaeus saw Jesus clearly and had an incredible encounter with him. Listen as Dr. Paul Pettit asks us three important questions about this passage: Are you “sitting beside the road” watching Jesus? (vv. 46-48) What do you want Jesus to do for you? (vv. 49-51a) Are you “on the road” walking with Jesus? (vv. 51b-52) Sermon…

The Trap, The Law, The Loopholes, The Truth

How’s your heart? How’s your heart toward singleness, marriage, divorce, remarriage, or adultery? Jesus had a lot to say about these topics. What is God’s intent for these relationships? Listen as Pastor Jeremy teaches us from Mark 10:1-12 in his sermon: The Trap, The Law, The Loopholes, and the Truth. Scripture References: Mark 10:1-12 Genesis 1:26-27 Ephesians 5:22-31 2 Corinthians 6:14-16

Heaven, Hell, and Everything In Between

We throw around the term “Hell” like it is no big deal. But the Bible assures us that it is a big deal. Jesus says that Hell is real. Not only is it real, but it is eternal. It is place of punishment with unquenchable fire. Hell is the worst place that you can possibly imagine. No matter how bad it is in this world, it’s no match for eternal separation from God. The torment and terror and horror of…

Not One Single Drop

What does Jesus want us to do? Why should we do it? Sermon Series: Encounter the Incredible 3 Sermon Title: Not One Single Drop Speaker: Pastor Jeremy K. Lobdell Scripture: Mark 9:33-41

How To Experience God’s Power

“Like the physical world, so too in the spiritual. This power is not intrinsic to us but instead it is external [the Lord’s]. All power is derivative. All power is in the Creator. All things are completely dependent upon God. He has infinite power!” –Pastor Jeremy
For Christ and Kingdom

For Christ and Kingdom

What’s the benefit of being a Christian? Jesus said that following Him would be difficult – there’s self-denial, suffering, persecution and hardship. But there is also tremendous HOPE! Listen as Pastor Jeremy teaches us from Mark 9 and Daniel 7 in his sermon, For Christ and Kingdom. ****Sermon Series: Encounter the IncredibleSpeaker: Pastor Jeremy K. LobdellTitle: For Christ and Kingdom Scriptures:Mark 8:38-9:14Daniel 7:9-10Daniel 7:13-14

Proper Expectations

Why is it that people often long for power and wealth? The people described in the book of Mark were looking for just that – a righteous and powerful King to deliver them from their political adversaries. They expected Jesus to overthrow their Roman oppressors, but Jesus set their expectations straight about what the Messiah would do: The Messiah would Suffer The Messiah would be Rejected The Messiah would be Killed Sermon Series: Encounter the Incredible Sermon Title: Proper Expectations…

Who Do You Say Jesus Is?

Here are a few questions to consider as Mike Ladenburger teaches from Mark 8:27-30: Who is Jesus? Who is Peter? Who are We? We need to remember to see Jesus for who he REALLY is. We need to not miss His true self – Anointed by God, Son of God, Holy God, Savior of the World. And because of who he is, we can also remember who WE are: “I am accepted, secure, significant, and empowered to do great things…

Our Only Hope

Where do you place your hope? What hope does Jesus give us with a second chance? Listen as Pastor Jeremy teaches us from Mark 8:22-26 in his sermon, Our Only Hope.

Mr. Can Do, Will Do

Crisis is a catalyst for change. Why? Because issues that we have been able to avoid, or things we’ve tried too hard to control, suddenly get pushed to the surface. In Mark 8:11-21 the disciples also faced a crisis. As Jesus addresses the issue, He points to their hearts and confronts the issue that’s really being raised. Listen as Pastor Jeremy teaches us in his sermon, “Mr. Can Do – Will Do.” What does Jesus bring to the surface for:…

Not How, but Who

“The question is not how, but Who. So many times in our life we are all wrapped up in the how because that’s right in front of us; that’s all we can see. The point is that Jesus is showing the disciples it’s not how, but who. And when the ‘who’ is in the house, then the hows don’t matter.” The key to getting through any problem or any crisis is to recognize Jesus for who he is. HOW: The…
