Flipping through the channels of our television sets, one can’t help but notice all of the shows that are centered around various super heroes as their main character(s). It seems like human beings enjoy the idea of someone who has the ability to save us from the evils of the world. The good news is that long before the TV was invented, Jesus came as a real super hero to do this very thing. Listen to Pastor Bob today as he discusses our real Super Hero in Jesus!
In the 17th chapter of the Gospel of John, we have the opportunity to listen to the heart of Jesus, as God the Son turns His eyes heavenward and prays to God the Father. In this moment, we can see the close personal relationship Jesus has with His Father, as well as the care and concern He has for His disciples. However, Jesus didn’t stop there and in verses 21-26 He prays for all of those who would come to know Him because of their message. That means you and me! Listen as Pastor Bob breaks down the final words of Jesus’ prayer, and what it means for all of us.
It is an amazing thing to think that the God of the Universe would love us so much that He would be willing to live for us, die for us, conquer the grave for us, as well as PRAY FOR US! Listen today as Pastor Bob opens up the Bible to John Chapter 17:6-9, and continues to unpack this beautiful prayer of Jesus, as He turns to His Father in Heaven on behalf of His disciples.

As we watch the news and follow the reactions from others on social media, it becomes obvious that our world is a world full of chaos right now. As a result, many of us are glued to the tv, or to the news outlets in the media, or to social media sites where people are arguing their opinions. It is so easy for us as Christians to get caught up in these debates, and to allow the ugliness of what’s going on in our world to fill our own hearts to the point where we begin to take part in it. As we study our text today in the Gospel of John, Jesus is also surrounded by the ugliness of the world, but instead of participating in it, He turns to His Father and prays instead. Listen as Pastor Bob discusses this prayer in depth as we study through the first 5 verses of John 17.
The Day of Pentecost is a day that Christians celebrate all over the world because it commemorates God pouring out His Holy Spirit upon all those who would come to believe in His son Jesus. Additionally, it was also the day the Christian Church was born as 3000 people were saved. Listen today as Pastor Bob talks about the beauty of that early church and what we can learn from it today.
We live in a world where there is trouble constantly knocking on our door. We hear of viruses, riots, political unrest and more as we listen to the news. Additionally, we have the common daily struggles of life to deal with such as: health issues, relational challenges, and the stresses that come with trying to provide for ourselves, and our families. Listen as Pastor Bob discusses the encouragement that Jesus gave his early disciples, and how we as Christians should approach these times of trouble in our own lives today
