What does Christian unity actually look like? In John 17, Jesus doesn't simply pray that his followers will agree or get along. He prays that they will become one in a way that allows the world to see God through them. In this sermon, Justin explores the difference between a community built around people who already think, vote, live, and believe alike, and the much more interesting community Jesus imagines: people with different stories, backgrounds, convictions, and experiences who choose to share a table, serve one another, forgive each other, and refuse to walk away. In a world that is remarkably good at uniting people around common enemies, Jesus invites us to become a people united around a common Savior. Through ordinary acts of hospitality, reconciliation, generosity, and love, the church can become the answer to Jesus' prayer: a community where people encounter us and catch a glimpse of God.

The Lord's Prayer is more than words—it's a pattern for shaping our hearts, aligning us with God's purposes, choosing forgiveness, living with a “we over me” mindset, and growing our faith.

Pastor Karl continues the Kingdom Now series in Matthew 20, exploring what sets kingdom greatness apart from worldly greatness. As Jesus tells His disciples He is heading to Jerusalem to suffer, be mocked, and be crucified, James and John's mother asks for positions of honor for her sons — missing the point entirely. Jesus responds with a defining truth: true greatness in God's kingdom comes through serving others, not through status or position. The message then turns to two blind men on the roadside who cry out to Jesus despite the crowd's attempts to silence them, and Jesus stops to heal them. Pastor Karl unpacks what it means to pursue Christ with bold, public faith rather than settling for silent, private belief, and challenges the church to approach God's throne of grace with the same desperation and persistence.

In John 17, Jesus prays, “As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world.” But where exactly have we been sent—and what are we supposed to do when we get there? In this sermon, Jason explores the church's calling to make Jesus visible through truthful witness, self-giving love, costly presence, and stubborn hope. In a world that constantly demands our attention, outrage, and anxiety, Jesus offers us freedom: we do not have to repair everything, respond to everything, or control every outcome. Instead, we can become faithfully present to the people and places God has entrusted to us—and live as if the resurrection is true.

Scripture: Matthew 26:57-75 Date: July 12, 2026 In this sermon we discuss Matthew 26, focusing on Jesus' trial before the Sanhedrin and Peter's denial in the courtyard. The pastor presents Jesus' silence before false witnesses, his confession before Caiaphas, and the condemnation and mocking that follow as the fulfillment of Old Testament passages about the suffering Messiah.The sermon also contrasts Jesus' faithfulness with Peter's repeated denials and bitter repentance after the rooster crows. It concludes by emphasizing Jesus as judge, savior, and advocate, and by calling listeners to repentance, faith, and bold confession of Christ. Topics: Matthew 26, Sanhedrin, Peter's denial, Caiaphas, false witnesses, suffering Messiah, Old Testament fulfillment, rooster crowing, repentance, bold confession Chapters 00:00:03 — Jesus on Trial 00:04:47 — False Witnesses Gather 00:06:50 — Christ Stands Silent 00:07:40 — Peter Denies Jesus 00:13:28 — Silent Servant of God 00:20:30 — Verdict and Sentence 00:22:32 — Peter's Bitter Tears 00:29:35 — Jesus Prays for Peter 00:32:58 — Restoration and Hope 00:34:39 — Our Trial Before God 00:37:43 — Rooster of Remembrance

Pastor Nik takes us through John 17

In week three of our John 17 series, we explore one of Jesus' most misunderstood prayers. As He prepares for the cross, Jesus doesn't ask the Father to remove His followers from the world. Instead, He prays that they would be sanctified—set apart to live differently within it. Too often, Christians have defined holiness as rule-keeping or escaping culture. But Jesus paints a different picture. His followers are called to reject the world's systems of fear, power, greed, and self-interest, and instead become a community marked by love, truth, generosity, and sacrificial service. What if holiness isn't about earning God's love, but becoming the kind of people through whom God renews the world? Join us as we discover why Jesus' prayer is not about withdrawal from culture, but faithful presence within it—and how the Church can become a living witness to a different way of being human.

Storms are inevitable. Sometimes life is smooth sailing, and then suddenly everything changes—a difficult diagnosis, financial hardship, broken relationships, or unexpected suffering. How should Christians respond when the storms of life come?In this sermon from John 6:16–21, we see that Jesus does not promise His disciples a life free from trials. Instead, He faithfully shepherds His people through every storm. As the disciples struggle against the wind and waves, Jesus reveals Himself as the great "I AM," intercedes for His people, and ultimately brings them safely to shore. This passage reminds believers that no storm is outside Christ's sovereign care, and that every trial is an opportunity to know Him more deeply while looking ahead to the eternal harbor He has prepared for His people.Questions for Reflection & DiscussionWhy is it important to remember that Jesus Himself sent the disciples into the storm?How does Jesus' present ministry of intercession encourage believers facing suffering today (Hebrews 7:25)?What does Jesus walking on the sea reveal about His identity?Why is Jesus' statement, "It is I" ("I AM"), so significant in John's Gospel?How have difficult seasons of life helped you know Christ more deeply?Why shouldn't Christians expect every storm to end in this life?How does the promise of our eternal home give hope in present suffering?Which of the four truths from this passage most encouraged you personally?Sermon OutlineJesus in the StormJohn 6:16–21Jesus Sends Us into the Storm (John 6:16–18)Jesus Prays for Us during the Storm (John 6:15; Matthew 14:22–23; Hebrews 7:25)Jesus Reveals Himself to Us through the Storm (John 6:19–20)Jesus Draws Us Out of the Storm (John 6:20–21; 2 Corinthians 4:16–18)Main Idea:The Good Shepherd does not promise a storm-free life, but He faithfully shepherds His people through every storm until He safely brings them home.

As Jesus prays His final prayer before the cross, He gives a surprising definition of eternal life: "That they know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." In this second message from our John 17 series, we explore what it means to build our lives on knowing God rather than on control, success, politics, security, or fear. Standing inside New York's magnificent St. Patrick's Cathedral raises a larger question: What gives the Church its life? Is it beautiful buildings, cultural influence, or something deeper? Jesus' answer is both comforting and challenging. The future of the Church has never rested in our hands—it has always rested in the Father's. Our invitation is not to manage God's Kingdom but to trust Him, know Him, and become a community shaped by His love. If you've ever wrestled with anxiety about the future, disappointment with the Church, or wondered what "eternal life" really means, this message is for you.

What did Jesus pray about in the final moments before His arrest? Before the cross, before the betrayal, before Gethsemane, Jesus pauses to pray. In this opening message of our John 17 series, we begin exploring what is often called Jesus' High Priestly Prayer—the longest recorded prayer of Jesus in Scripture. As Jesus prepares to lay down His life, He reveals what matters most. Justin explores one of the most misunderstood words in the Bible: glory. Rather than power, fame, or victory, biblical glory carries the idea of weight, significance, and the tangible presence of God. From creation, to the tabernacle, to the temple, to Jesus Himself, Scripture traces God's glory moving toward humanity—and then makes the astonishing claim that this same glory is given to Christ's followers. What would it look like if Christians became people whose lives carried that kind of weight? What if the church wasn't known for winning arguments, but for embodying the presence of Jesus wherever it went? This message launches a six-week journey through John 17, inviting us to discover Jesus' deepest desires for Himself, His disciples, and for the Church today.

This episode examines Luke 22:31–34, where Jesus warns Peter of Satan's sifting, predicts Peter's denial, and Jesus explains He prays that Peters faith, and the other Apostles, will not fail. It explores the context of the reality of spiritual trials, and  that Jesus' prayers for His disciples, along with God's power preserve and restore believers so they can encourage others.

In this Father's Day message, we explore the profound significance of the Lord's Prayer, positioned at the very center of Jesus's Sermon on the Mount. This isn't by accident—Jesus intentionally placed prayer at the heart of kingdom living. Discover how the Lord's Prayer is more than just words to recite; it's a transformative practice designed to shape our hearts and align our lives with God's purposes. Jesus gave us this prayer not as religious repetition, but as a proactive spiritual discipline that reminds us who we're talking to, realigns our will with His, and draws us closer to our Heavenly Father. Through each phrase—from recognizing God's holiness to requesting daily provision, from receiving forgiveness to finding deliverance—we learn that prayer isn't primarily about getting something from God, but about getting close to God. It's about knowing the Father, not just knowing the prayer. This message challenges us to move beyond reactive, crisis-driven prayer to an intentional practice that transforms us from the inside out. What would happen if you prayed the Lord's Prayer three times a day for the next week? How might it shape your perspective, your relationships, and your walk with God? Matthew 5-7 (Sermon on the Mount) Matthew 6:9-15 (The Lord's Prayer) Luke 11 (Disciples ask Jesus to teach them to pray) Deuteronomy 6:4-9 (The Shema) Mark 4:1 (Jesus tempted in the wilderness) Mark 9 (Demon cast out through prayer) For more information about our church, visit npfcc.org  To help support the ongoing work of NPFCC and our mission partners around the globe, you can make a donation at npfcc.org/give 

When Jesus prayed, was he talking to himself? Kaitlyn dives into the deep end of Christian theology, talking about the Trinity, Jesus' humanity, and why "three persons, one God" is both true and mysterious. She explores why Jesus praying in the garden is not God merely talking to himself, but a glimpse into the eternal relationship of Father, Son, and Spirit, and why Jesus' human will matters for how we understand prayer, suffering, and obedience.   0:00 - Intro   1:33 - Why Does Jesus Pray for Us if He's God?   4:59 - The Trinity is one   17:02 - Sponsor - World Relief - Right now, there's $150,000 challenge gift that will TRIPLE your giving, ending June 30th!

A People Jesus Prays For | The Gospel of John | Pastor Steve Osborne by Cornwall Church

In this sermon from John 17, we are invited into the true Lord's Prayer — not the prayer given to the disciples, but the prayer Jesus Himself prayed on behalf of His people. As Christ lifts His disciples before the Father, we are given a glimpse into the heart of our Savior and the ongoing work He is accomplishing for those who belong to Him.Jesus prays for the preservation of His people, their joy in the midst of a hostile world, their protection from the evil one, their growth in holiness through the truth of God's Word, and their witness to a world that desperately needs the Gospel. This passage reminds us that believers are not abandoned, aimless, or forgotten — they are loved by the Father, secured by the Son, empowered by the Spirit, and sent with a mission.Key Points:1. For Your Preservation 2. For Your Joy 3. For Your Protection 4. For Your Holiness 5. For Your Witness

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260519dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion [Jesus said] I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. John 17:9-11 Jesus Prays for You “I’m praying for you.” Has anyone ever told you that? It can be an encouraging and comforting thing to have a Christian pray for you. They are asking God to help you with a problem or to bless you in special ways. It reassures you that you are not alone and that others are thinking of you and wishing you the best. Did you know that Jesus prays for you? He gives an example of that in today’s Bible verse. He prayed for his disciples the night before he died on the cross. He acknowledged that his disciples and every believer belongs to God as a child belongs to his father. He prayed for protection and strength. In this world they would face troubles and temptations. Many things in this world would war against their faith, but Jesus was praying to his Father on their behalf. The unbelieving world and the forces of evil are powerful, but Jesus is bigger and stronger. The one who answers prayers prayed for his disciples. We are in the world for a time. In this world, there are various troubles, but Jesus has overcome them. Jesus is in heaven, where he ascended forty days after rising from the dead. Jesus still prays for his followers for strength and endurance. He prays that through their sharing of his word and promises, many others will come to faith and receive his glorious gifts of forgiveness and everlasting life. You are not forgotten by your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The world and the forces of evil are powerful, but Jesus is bigger and stronger. The one who answers prayers is praying for you. Prayer: Lord, grant me strength to withstand all those wars against my soul, and give my great anticipation of the glorious life that waits beyond the troubles of this world. Amen.

Did you know that Jesus prays for you?   In today's Gospel, Jesus says:   “I pray for them.” (John 17)   What an incredible truth: ✝️ Jesus intercedes for you ✝️ Jesus brings your needs to the Father ✝️ Jesus knows your struggles and your heart   You are not alone.   In today's Rise Up reflection, Fr.
