Disciple-making Disciples (Matthew28; Mark 16)
Pastor Michael highlights to us how Jesus speaks to His disciples as her is speaking to us today: that He is giving us all authority, sending us to all nations, and that He will always be with us. The Father sends us, but the Holy Spirit empowers us.

On Mother's Day, Pastor Michael taught us from Luke 10, specifically how to rest in a season of harvest. We are to seek out the harvest, to stop for the broken, and to sit at His feet. "Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord".

Pastor Michael taught us out of John 21- the restoration of Peter. Peter had disqualified himself, but was never disqualified by Jesus. Jesus tells Peter if he loves Him, to care for His people, and to lay down his life for His people. "You can't say you love Jesus and hate His Church". Are we willing to lay down our lives for His Church?

Pastor Michael draws our attention to Luke 24-- the Road to Emmaus. He highlights to us how Jesus' own disciples did not know Him when He appeared to them again. They did not understand Him. And they did not expect Him... they were unprepared for the possibility that it was Jesus. Do we resonate at all with the disciples?

Pastor Michael begin the "Behind Locked Doors" series by teaching us out of John 20: 19-31... Jesus answers our fears with His presence, He answers our failure with His Spirit, and He answers our doubts with His scars. "Your doubts comes from your scars, but He answers them with His scars."

Jesus the King. Celebrated. Welcomed. Honored. How quickly things unravel. He paid the price in full for us-- it is finished. Everything around you may have changed. But Jesus' resurrection has changed everything. Because He's paid everything. If only you'd take Him at His Word.

Just days before Jesus' crucifixion, the High Priest tells the ruling council of religious leaders in Jerusalem, "it is better for you that one man should die for the people" than the "whole nation perish." And so the scene is set, for Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem. For the people, it is a political event, for Jesus' Himself, it is a theological statement - He is the Messiah - Anointed, Triumphant and Rejected...

As Pastor Michael concludes The Restoration Series on The Story of Ezra, we continue to look to the life of Ezra. We see through his life and story that the work of God requires community, a heart for God demands compassion, and the Word of God produces conviction. Are we willing to humble ourselves before God as Ezra did?

Pastor Michael continues to teach us from the book and life of Ezra. In Chapter 7, we learn how God's Word prepares us, how His Word instructs us, and how His Word judges us. "Come let us return to the Lord" (Hosea 6:1-3)... there's never been a more vital time!

Pastor Michael began our new series- Restoration: The Story of Ezra. He shares with us that we are in a time to return; a time of favor, a time to rebuild; a royal decree, and a time to contend amidst opposition. On the National Day of Prayer, and our first meeting outside of the building due to the Coronavirus, he challenges us all to to press into the Lord during this season, because He wants to speak to us!
