Tough and passionate, yet the apostle Paul stopped to write thank you notes to those wonderful friends who financially supported his ministry. And we benefit from that gratitude with the wonderful letter to the church in Philippi. We take a Sunday to appreciate his gratitude and learn more about prayers of thanksgiving.

Then He bodily ascended into heaven while the disciples watched in awe. The Ascension to the right hand of the Father is a vital part of His victory. Let’s understand more why this is important.

In this Easter morning message, we focused on the importance of the anguish and suffering our Savior endured even before the agony of the cross had begun. For in His seeming weakness, He accomplished so much.
This Easter Sunday was another full Sunday in which I hate to say, but you had to be there to appreciate God’s presence that morning. I am so thankful for the diligence of our people for a wonderful outdoor service at 8:30, breakfast fellowship, and then well-done music in the 11am worship service.

How you answer that question is revealed by your life. God looks on the heart for your answer and all of eternity is at stake. Who do you say that He is?
This Palm Sunday was a full Sunday for us and a smaller portion than normal of the service made it in the audio. The microphone on my pocket didn’t pick up the great singing from the Eubanks family, much less of the egg hunts, pancake breakfast, and sweet fellowship and small groups.

A desperate woman asks but does not receive her request, even after asking repeated times. Yet the trying of her faith reveals a greater persistence and trust than what would have been revealed with an immediate answer. “Great is your faith,” the Master replies to a woman who would not give up. Would you?

Jesus gives compassion to the lost and needy, in particular those who recognize their need. But His compassion exceeds the time and place that the Son of Man occupies. Thus He answers His own prayer by sending laborers to bring His compassion to others.

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus warned that most will not find the narrow gate that leads to eternal life. But showing unmerited favor, Jesus found Matthew when Matthew was not seeking Him. And after Jesus rescued him, Matthew sought to bring others to His Savior.

In the Sermon on the Mount, the Way of the King has been made clear by Jesus of Nazareth.
But what authority does this Man of humble circumstances have to claim to be King and Judge with all Authority. Matthew retells the evidence for the Authority of Christ.

The One Judge over all mankind warns us that we each will face two choices with our life, but only one choice is the way of the King and to eternal life. We would be wise if we followed his word to the preferred destination.
