Christians often call Jesus king, and rightfully so. But how often do we consider what it truly means to live under the rule of a King?  As the final days of Jesus earthly ministry comes to an end he ascends into heaven to take his place enthroned in heaven where he reigns forever, and Pastor Fikre Prince asserts that this should mean something to the believers daily living.Big Idea: Jesus is enthroned as King.Key Question: How does Jesus' enthronement impact us today?1.     He rules over us.

Message by Josh Mutter – April 20, 2025 BIG IDEA:  Jesus meets us where we are and changes what we believe is possible. John 20:19-23 (NIV)  On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace … Read more...

Pastor Andy Cass In a world of brand confusion, even Jesus gets reimagined to fit personal preferences. But what if the real Jesus doesn't cater to our image—but calls us to be reshaped in His? TEXT: Luke 11:23, Luke 11:37–40, Luke 11:42–44, Luke 11:46–48, Luke 11:52, 2 Timothy 3:1–5, Micah 6:8, Philippians 2:3, Psalm 24:4, Galatians 6:2, Romans 12:9, Matthew 5:16 NOTES: -Do you see Jesus for who he truly is?” “Are you branding Jesus, or is Jesus branding you?” “Are you sitting at his table or have you placed him on your table as a decoration?” -“Do you have a Biblical perspective or a collage from culture and your hopeful thoughts?” BAD BUT COMMON BRAND (False brand) -A Friend who loves but never convicts. -A Messiah who serves but never leads. -A King who blesses but never corrects. BIG IDEA-“Jesus will not be branded as a pushover. Instead, He is the One who pushes through our expectations, desires, and self-serving nature.” Questions: BRANDING JESUS into a better way: Neglect → Justice – Practice justice and love for God. (Micah 6:8) Pride → Humility – Seek to serve rather than be honored. (Philippians 2:3) Corruption → Integrity – Be pure in heart and actions. (Psalm 24:4) Burden → Compassion – Help others instead of weighing them down. (Galatians 6:2) Hypocrisy → Sincerity – Live authentically in faith and action. (Romans 12:9) Obstruction → Guidance – Lead people to truth, not away from it. (Matthew 5:16)

April 13 – The Power of Surrender | Rica | Baptism Sunday  Scripture: Mark 11:1-11  Big Idea: Jesus' triumphal entry was a paradox of power—He ruled not with force but by surrendering His life for the sake of others. Servant leadership means sacrificing for the good of those we serve. 

Message by Josh Mutter – April 13, 2025 BIG IDEA:  Jesus invites us to be honest with ourselves.   Matthew 23:29-36 (NIV)  “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites!

Message by Christin Taylor – March 23, 2025 BIG IDEA:  Jesus gives us the power (and love) to give and serve.   Matthew 23:23-24 (NIV) “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites!

Message by Josh Mutter – March 16, 2025 BIG IDEA:  Jesus calls us to integrity over self-interest. Matthew 23:16-22 (NIV)  Woe to you, blind guides! You say, ‘If anyone swears by the temple, it means nothing; but anyone who swears by the gold of the temple is bound by that oath.' You blind fools! Which is greater: the gold,… Read more...

BIG IDEA: Jesus is Better

BIG IDEA: Jesus is Better

Big Idea: Jesus turns a funeral into a birthday.  In the Beginning: Joseph Genesis 50:1-14 I. The distance of death hurts. 1-6 Then Joseph, leaning over his father's face, wept and kissed him. He commanded his servants who were physicians to embalm his father. So they embalmed Israel. They took forty days to complete this, for embalming takes that long, and the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days. When the days of mourning were over, Joseph said to Pharaoh's household, “If I have found favor with you, please tell Pharaoh that my father made me take an oath, saying, ‘I am about to die. You must bury me there in the tomb that I made for myself in the land of Canaan.' Now let me go and bury my father. Then I will return.” So Pharaoh said, “Go and bury your father in keeping with your oath.” II. We grieve differently. 7-11 Then Joseph went to bury his father, and all Pharaoh's servants, the elders of his household, and all the elders of the land of Egypt went with him, along with all Joseph's family, his brothers, and his father's family. Only their dependents, their flocks, and their herds were left in the land of Goshen. Horses and chariots went up with him; it was a very impressive procession. When they reached the threshing floor of Atad, which is across the Jordan, they lamented and wept loudly, and Joseph mourned seven days for his father. When the Canaanite inhabitants of the land saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, “This is a solemn mourning on the part of the Egyptians.” Therefore the place is named Abel-mizraim. It is across the Jordan.   III. Go any distance to honor a dying wish. 12-14 So Jacob's sons did for him what he had commanded them. They carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave at Machpelah in the field near Mamre, which Abraham had purchased as burial property from Ephron the Hethite. After Joseph buried his father, he returned to Egypt with his brothers and all who had gone with him to bury his father. Next Steps:  Believe: I want to be adopted into God's family today.  Become: I will live for eternity this week.  Be Sent: I will show others that Jesus lives this week. Group Discussion Questions:  What makes funerals so painful? Have you ever spoken during a funeral?  If so, what did you say? Has death changed your family's dynamics?  Why? Read John 11:33.  What touched Jesus so profoundly? Are you attempting to live out someone's last words to you?  If so, explain.  What would your last words be to your family and friends? Ask the Holy Spirit to help you focus more on eternity tomorrow.

BIG IDEA: Jesus is the Substitute

BIG IDEA: Jesus is the Substitute

The Big Idea: Jesus paid our debt on the cross. He bore our sins upon his body. He suffered and died in our place, as our substitute. Jesus took the shame, condemnation, and pain we were to bear. He carried our cross and paid the ultimate price. It was a very high price to pay for our forgiveness.Main Points:1. Forgiveness comes at a cost. If you forgive someone, you bear the cost rather than insisting that the wrongdoer does. And that is what Jesus, the Mighty God, was doing when he came to earth and lived as a man and died a criminal's death on a wooden cross.2. Here is an important understanding about our forgiveness: Jesus didn't have to do it. He was not obligated to take our penalty. He was not forced to do so. He did not have to love us. We are not worthy of his love. Yet, Christ chose to love us. He chose to take our place. He chose to lay down his life for us.3. What a great and awful price was paid for our freedom. Let us never forget there was a high cost to our forgiveness, but it was a cost Jesus was willing to pay.Today's Scripture Verses:1 Peter 1:18-19 - “For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.”John 10:18 -  "No one takes my life from me; I lay it down of my own accord.”Galatians 2:20 - “The life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and delivered Himself up for me.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group
