September 03, 2017 00:22 - 51 minutes - 70.2 MBJesus loves deniers 27/08/2017, Dwight Bernier Denial is hard to accept. Whether it be a relationship or job, it is often difficult to move past. What we will see this week in our text is that Jesus knows he will be denied by his friend. Not only does he predict this, but also makes promises about what will happen after the denial. Now, maybe you think that Jesus is going to pull out all the punches for this denier. Instead, he promises him something that is naturally impossible to...

The job description is intense (we will see on Sunday). And this is what makes me marvel at Jesus. He is the perfect shepherd of the most difficult flock ever - his people. This Sunday, we will look at four aspects of the shepherding of Jesus. We will see that Jesus knows his sheep, feeds them, leads them, and protects them - even to the point...

If you are a follower of Jesus then the answer to that question ought to be “yes”. Jesus is calling you to lead others to him. Jesus never intended to change the entire world by himself. He accomplished the work that only he could do on the cross, but by his design he told his followers to take it from there, empowered by his Spirit.
