U Turn with Murder on the Brain | The main idea of this text is to recount the dramatic events involved in Saul’s turn to Christ. If he could be rescues and put to work, maybe we shouldn’t write anybody off. | 9/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Wait | Those Apostles were and add bunch - like us. God sees potential in people even when others can't. It is never too late for a change of heart - just ask Jesus' brothers. Constant prayer is the mark of an Apostle and desiples | 6/11/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

10 |
Hobbling to Emmaus | The death of Jesus was the ultimate disappointment for those who didn’t understand his true mission...the Old Testament Scriptures stated the need for the Messiah to die and be resurrected...Tying the scriptures together with the events of Jesus life made for great joy and excitement. | 5/1/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
11 |
CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? | -- Paying for our own sins…that would be fair. -- What got into God that he stood by and let Jesus die like that? -- Taking the Plunge is the wisest and coolest move I’ll ever make! Ever! -- The Resurrection is the Exclamation Point (!) on the Gospel. | 4/23/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
12 |
We Are Not As Strong (as we think we are) | --Over-(self) Confidence can lead to an early retirement (from victory). --Help Me Jesus is a good phrase to memorize...and use! --If Jesus needed help from angels...what would make us think we can navigate life’s mine field as loners? --“With God” all things are possible. | 4/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Me First...Me, Me, Me! | Jesus’ way of living runs counter to our nature. What is it in us that cries out for being important, popular and prominent? The real way to joy is humbly serving God and others. | 3/27/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

14 |
An Old Meal with a New Meaning | The Lord's Supper sprang from the celebration of the Passover Feast. Better yet, the Passover message was to prepare us for the coming of the Ultimate Lamb...Jesus. Now we look back to Calvary...and ahead to the Second Coming. | 3/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

15 |
The Purpose of Prophecy | - Prophecy is not 'history written in advance'. - God likes to give us fair warnings...and opportunities to repent. - Fulfilled prophecy is the First Alert...so shape up. - What would I do if I knew life would halt in a month or so? | 3/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

16 |
Time and Eternity - Life and Death | Many of the concerns of life are uniquely individual. Health, career, education, family are all examples of these. We often spend most of our time dealing with them and ignore the universal concerns that affect all of us. The Bible has much to offer for our consideration. | 3/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

17 |
And When I Die | We get to listen in listen in on questions people asked Jesus. One thing’s for sure…We won’t be disappointed with heaven. No more dying there! If heaven is secure for me, I can focus on other important stuff | 2/27/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Fruit Bearers | We can't talk about fruit bearing without the source of the one who produces the fruit. Jesus is the source of life, the one who is the true vine who feeds the branches and who makes the fruit. | 2/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

19 |
Loosening My Grip on My Life - Tightening My Grip on God | Jesus used a thinly veiled parable to pronounce judgment on those who rejected his claim to Lordship. It is an age-old struggle…surrendering to the will and rule of God. The parable of the Vineyard helps us take a close look at our own interactions with God. | 2/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Coats Off - That is a King on a Donkey | After three years of ministry, much of it spent hushing people who wanted to broadcast the news of his miracles, Jesus finally accepts the praise and takes on kingly behavior. But he is subdued - without the usual exultation you’d expect from a king coming to town. His heart is heavy for some - those who can’t see this moment for what it really is. | 2/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

21 |
Hey! That's Me in the Tree! | The story of the short tax-collector is really a universal one. We all deal with our deficits, despite our successes. Even when all seems to be going well we know deep inside that we need more than what is visible to make us complete. | 1/16/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
22 |
Living in the Shadow of the Cross | Jesus knew from the very beginning that he would be paying the price for mankind’s sin. The prophets outlined his plight, partly so that the Messiah could be identified by the way he lived and died. Yet even in the shadow of the cross Jesus displayed immense compassion for others. Can we, like Jesus, really see the needy around us, even as we face tribulations? | 1/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Dress for Success | As we move into a new and wonderful relationship with God, we have a new identity…and duties which go with the territory. The characteristics God looks for are not isolated; they are acted out in relationships. Part of this involves the serious task of loosening our grip and focus on things around us. But it also means engaging others with kindness and patience. So love isn’t just a feeling…it is shapes how we behave. | 1/2/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Wrapped in Plain Paper | The main characters in Jesus’ stories were not who we’d expect. He made heroes of foreigners, women, children, sinners, tax collectors and the like. This story stick to that model. An unwed mother gives birth to the Messiah. The site is unlikely as well. And who gets hears the first announcement of the wondrous event…more of the same. What does that say about our own possibilities for being useful to the King of Kings? | 12/19/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Big Shots Beware! | Jesus made it clear that humility is one of the passwords for getting into the Kingdom and in maintaining our relationship with him. Here is a story that makes this point in a powerful way. | 12/12/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pray On! | Prayer may include a commitment to help God bring about the answer I seek. God is not bugged by our persistence and constant beating on his door. God can be moved. Can I? It is not good for a man to pray cream and live skim milk. Henry Ward Beecher | 12/5/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
