Jewish holidays, during biblical times, were in the spring and close together, starting with Passover, going into the Feast of Unleavened Bread and then the Feast of Firstfruits.

Jesus Is Worthy Today, Pastor Michael is promulgating a story, seemingly unconnected in purpose and place, about parallels in why folks show up at places. Linking this to Jesus and His stories, the core idea here is “Jesus Is Worthy.” Timeline-wise, this is about 36 hours before Jesus’ crucifixion. The next night would be the Passover meal. Jesus i…

Trust the Timing to God. Today, Pastor Michael is starting us off right on eschatology, a big word that means the science of the last things. If only we had someone on our side who could help us understand time and the last times. This concludes Pastor Michael’s study on the end times. We find Jesus telling a story about a fig tree. The signs Jesus…

Jesus is Peace Today, Pastor Michael is discussing how the world is always ‘on’ these days. The world sells treatments, not cures. It sells distractions, not peace.

Simple Faith for a Complex World. Today, Pastor Michael is drilling down on the complexities of modern life. We like complexity until it becomes overwhelming, but it is a real part of modern day-to-day living. God did not make a world that was overly complex. He put people in a situation that was pretty idyllic and low-key. But we, starting with Ad…
