He Couldnt Say The Name (Audio)

September 14, 2008 11:03 - 36 minutes - 8.46 MB

Today we turn to Luke 10 in order to finish the parable of the good Samaritan. The point of this parable isn't about having compassion and helping out a stranger in need. This parable that probably shocked it's listeners drives at not only the heart of this teacher of the law, but to all Jews. If we pay attention, we'll find that it has a lot to do with our eternal life as well.

Lazy (Audio)

September 07, 2008 11:03 - 21 minutes - 8.46 MB

When a teacher of the law tests Jesus with a question about obtaining eternal life, he does not realize that his question is based off two false assumptions. If we examine ourselves closely, we'll find that we have something in common with this teacher of the law. Turn with me to Luke 10 as we listen to these few words of Jesus that should change our assumptions.

Presidential Elections (Audio)

August 31, 2008 11:03 - 30 minutes - 8.46 MB

Because of the Democratic National Convention and both candidates choosing their running mates, we have been bombarded with news, stories, and info concerning the Presidential Elections. As I watch the media's coverage of these two candidates I begin to wonder if our political system influences us on how to view God. Turn to Mark 8 and listen in to find what we conclude.

Russia VS Georgia (Audio)

August 24, 2008 11:03 - 33 minutes - 8.46 MB

As we watch the conflict of Russia and Georgia continue we notice hostility, hatred, deceptive words, and evil. Maybe there's a bit of Cain in both these countries for both these nations show the signs of death. Today we turn to Genesis 4 and 1 John 3:10ff

China (Audio)

August 17, 2008 11:00 - 24 minutes - 8.46 MB

I don't know how you could miss that the Olympics are going on in China. There's not just the drama of the games, but the drama of the countries. We've had riots, protest, and boycotts. All this drama in order to influence China to change. What does China have to do with the Jailer in Acts 16? Listen to find out

Brett Favre

August 10, 2008 11:00 - 21 minutes - 8.46 MB

Even if you're not into sports it would be hard to miss the drama following Brett Favre. Favre retired earlier this year and then changed his mind. Unfortunately, Favre was not welcomed back with opened arms. After offering 20 million to stay retired, telling him that he would be the backup quarterback, and then doing everything to keep him away, the Green bay Packers finally traded Favre to the New York Jets (a team that won 4 games last year). I image that there were many moments after he a...

Fame (Julia Allison) (AUDIO

August 03, 2008 11:00 - 29 minutes - 8.46 MB

Today we're looking at an article from wired magazine that talks about how to become Internet Famous like Julia Allison. There's something strangely familiar with this article and the the prayer of Solomon as recorded in Psalms 72, yet there is one fundamental difference.

Can You Eat Your Bible (Audio)

July 27, 2008 11:00 - 27 minutes - 8.46 MB

"Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds from the mouth of God." No, Jesus isn't teaching us to eat our Bible, but he is referring to something more than just reading scriptures every day.

Broken Bike (Audio)

July 20, 2008 11:00 - 25 minutes - 8.46 MB

Turning to Luke 4 one last time, we examine how Jesus' home town was like my bike (No, my bike didn't try to ride Jesus off a cliff) as well as examining how Rudolph (yes, the reindeer) and bird watching relate to spiritual maturity.

Following the Road Signs

July 13, 2008 11:00 - 34 minutes - 8.46 MB

Turning to Luke 4 again, we examine the response of Jesus' hometown. The people of Nazareth were amazed at Jesus and yet rejected him. What's going on here? Maybe it's the same problem Paul warned about in 2nd Timothy, the same problem James discusses in his letter, and the same problem we deal with all the time.

Spiritually Mature Cliff Lovers

July 06, 2008 11:00 - 31 minutes - 8.46 MB

We open our Bibles to Luke 4 and watch Jesus come home. How does His hometown respond? Let's just say that they all don't plan on taking a cliff dive.

Masks And Mickey Mouse

Why do we pretend? Why do we wear masks? Could it be that we're trying to become something which we're not or maybe we're trying to achieve/receive something we haven't obtained. Let's turn to Acts 5 and Mickey Mouse as we explore this more.

Set Apart

May 18, 2008 10:00 - 30 minutes - 8.46 MB

We turn to Acts 11 and find a key shift that transformed our world. At the heart of the issue is people following the leading of Jesus no matter how absurd and illogical it seems, as well as a nation's understanding of holiness.

Die

May 11, 2008 10:00 - 33 minutes - 8.46 MB

Today we look at Mark 3:20-25 and witness a moment where Mary had to realize that the relationship she has always had with her son has to die in order for her to continue to have a healthy relationship with him. As we look at this passage, we'll realize that that this principle isn't isolated only with the relationship of Mothers and children, but it is within the fabric of creation. Why? Listen and find out.

No Country For Old Men

May 04, 2008 10:00 - 29 minutes - 8.46 MB

No Country For Old Men becomes a parable for Luke 10 when Jesus sends out his 72 disciples.

3:10 To Yuma

April 20, 2008 10:00 - 38 minutes - 8.46 MB

Today, 3:10 to Yuma becomes a parable that explains two passages of scripture: Psalms 1 and 2nd Timothy 3:10-4:8.

Mess In The Middle

April 13, 2008 10:00 - 43 minutes - 8.46 MB

Today we have a guest speaker, Jason Salamun, who is launching a Church here in Rapid City, SD. I asked Jason to come and to share his heart, hoping that his heart would spread through our our church like chicken pox among school kids. Because of audio problems (I forgot to push a button), we were only able to record the first 43 mins of his message. Thankfully, Jason has posted his notes on his blog site so you can read what wasn't recorded.

Michael Clayton

April 06, 2008 10:00 - 37 minutes - 8.46 MB

The Movie Michael Clayton is a powerful visualization of some potent Christian concepts. This movie is threaded with concepts of guilt/shame and redemption and so it will provide some unique ways of looking at these timeless teachings of Jesus
