He reveals Himself yet remains hidden, and remains hidden even as He reveals Himself. Like the disciples on the road to Emmaus, He walks with us, yet we recognize Him not.“We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade the presence of God. The world is crowded with Him. But He walks everywhere incognito. And the incognito is not always easy to penetrate. Where is God found in our world today? Are we awake enough to notice?”C.S. LewisPastor Ray begins a new series of Bible studies...“Jesus Incognito”.

Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?" Supposing Him to be the gardener, she said to Him, "Sir, if you have carried Him away, tell me where you have laid Him, and I will take Him away."John 12:11, 14-15Why is it significant that the first person to encounter the risen Christ was a woman? How was it that she would mistake Him for a gardener? And what message might all this mean related to the modern American church?“Think of the Church as a garden and the risen Christ as the gardener. Then imagine what it would be like were it to be so.” Charles SpurgeonWe hope you enjoy Pastor Ray's special Resurrection Day message, “Supposing Him to be the Gardener”.

But this honest, accurate commentary from 17th century Bible scholar Matthew Henry proves this was not always the case.“This parable plainly sets forth the sin and ruin of the Jewish nation; they and their leaders were the wicked vinedressers; and the judgment spoken against them is a caution to all that enjoy the privileges of the visible church, not to be high-minded, but fear.”Matthew Henry (1662-1714)We hope you enjoy Pastor Ray's provocative message on “The Parable of the Wicked Vinedressers”.
