When a child is adopted, it's the choice of the family that adopts them to accept them into their family. In today's message, Pastor Ken says the story of Hosea is an example of how Jesus adopts us into His family. He chose you. Jesus wants to be with you in eternity. All you must do is choose to follow Him and let Him lead your life. Have you chosen to follow Jesus? If you haven't, there's no better time than right now. He's seeking you and wants to give you every opportunity to follow Him. Trust Jesus today!

In this powerful Sunday message from John 6, we explore the miraculous feeding of the 5,000 and the deeper lessons Jesus teaches us through it. When faced with overwhelming problems, we often turn to our own solutions—avoiding them, throwing money at them, or relying on others. But Jesus shows us a better way: bring the problem to Him.Through four key responses—from the disciples, Philip, Andrew, and Jesus—we learn how to:1. Trust Jesus with the little we have,2. Trust Him with the surplus,3. Trust Him through life's storms,4. And feed our faith daily on Him, the Bread of Life.No matter the challenge, Jesus doesn't waste anything in our lives and invites us to rely on Him every single day—especially the last day.

The priests, scribes,and elders have been listening to this. And when you read John 11:47–54, it isobvious that Jesus knew what these religious leaders were thinking. When hetells this parable, they know he's speaking of the vineyard, which is Israel. God,in the Old Testament, had sent prophets to call the nation to repentance. Read Jeremiah7:25–26, where Jeremiah said the Father, who has this vineyard sent prophets toask you to repent, to turn back, but because you have not repented, judgment iscoming. Also, in Nehemiah 9:26,Nehemiah, after the captivity in Babylon, in one of the longest recordedprayers in the Bible, prays a public prayer before the remnant that returned toJerusalem. In this prayer he mentions how that God sent prophets, teachers, andpeople calling the people to repentance, but they rejected and killed them. In John chapter 11:47-53,we read: “Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council andsaid, "What shall we do? For this Man works many signs. If we let Himalone like this, everyone will believe in Him, and the Romans will come andtake away both our place and nation." And one of them, Caiaphas, beinghigh priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all, nor do youconsider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people,and not that the whole nation should perish." Now this he did not say onhis own authority; but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesuswould die for the nation, and not for that nation only, but also that He wouldgather together in one the children of God who were scattered abroad. Then,from that day on, they plotted to put Him to death.” Jesus knows what thesereligious leaders are thinking when He shares this parable. They know He issaying that He is the Son that the owner of the vineyard sent to claim His vineyardand they are rejecting him. Jesus is proclaiming that judgment will surely fallupon them, and that's why they said, “Certainly not.” Jesus, the Messiah, isthere, presenting himself openly, and religious leaders know that if the peoplereceive Christ and accept Him as the Messiah, it is all over for their religioushypocrisy, and that's what they fear. Already, when John the Baptist baptizedJesus, and the Spirit came upon Jesus, and people saw this. They also heard thevoice from heaven say, “This is my beloved Son.” Now, when here Jesus inthis parable said, “He sent his beloved son,” they knew He was speakingof Himself. And these scribes, lawyers, priests, and elders knew that He wasspeaking of them rejecting him as the Messiah. And that God's judgment wouldcome upon them and the “vineyard” would be given to others. What a powerfulparable. My friend, it is a costly mistake to reject Jesus as your only hopefor salvation. He is your only Way to avoid the judgment to come. Don't be likethese religious Pharisees, hypocrites. Trust Jesus, focus on him, and live forhim every day.

Bible Reading: Colossians 1:9-14When Jack came into the living room, his dad was watching the news. He heard the end of a report about a man trying to collect a large inheritance. "If that man's parents died, why can't he get the money that was left?" asked Jack after Dad turned off the TV."He ran away from home when he was sixteen years old," Dad explained. "That was thirty years ago, and he never contacted his family again. They searched and searched for him and found out he'd moved to another state. They wanted to have a relationship with him again and made repeated efforts throughout the years to contact him--including several visits to the city where he lived. But he wouldn't even speak with them."Jack frowned. "But he's back now, so won't he get at least some of the money?""Apparently not. His parents gave up trying to get a response from him and didn't include him in their wills.""But now, after they've both died, he finally shows up and thinks he should have the inheritance?" asked Jack."Yes, but now it's too late," replied Dad. "He contested the will, but the courts upheld it. They said he's not entitled to any of the money.""Wow!" said Jack. "I bet he's sorry he didn't make up with his parents when he had the chance."Dad nodded. "He not only lost the inheritance--he missed out on having a relationship with his parents too. He learned a hard lesson--and, sadly, a very common one.""You mean there are lots of people who leave home and refuse to have a relationship with their parents?" asked Jack in surprise."That happens often enough," said Dad. "But I was thinking of the inheritance God offers to everyone through Jesus Christ. Because of our sin, we're cut off from God, so He sent Jesus to restore our relationship with Him. But if we refuse His offer of reconciliation, then we miss out on having a relationship with God. When life ends, we're going to want the inheritance--eternal life--given to those who are part of God's family, but it's going to be too late. That's why it's important to accept God's offer to have a relationship with Him now, while we still can." –Heather M. Tekavec How About You?Will you be able to claim the inheritance God offers? He's offering something far better than money--a relationship with Him and life that lasts for all eternity. It's available to anyone who trusts in Jesus. Someday it will be too late to accept His offer, so don't put it off. Trust Jesus as your Savior today and become part of God's family.

May 11, 2025 Jesus would have us know him as the Good Shepherd. We need to listen to him by receiving his teaching. We need to follow him by living out his teaching.

Today's episode of the sunshine would like to know why we have such a hard time trusting God, who can't lie and is never wrong, but have such a easy time trusting people or Internet information that has let us down or misled us. I pray that God will open your heart and mind to trust Jesus and choose him as your Lord and Savior today.

Use this guide to help your group discussion as you meet this week. TranscriptGood morning. Happy Easter! My name is Chet. I'm one of the pastors here. If you will, grab a Bible and go to Romans chapter 4. We're going to consider just a few verses in the book of Romans this morning. We're going to pick up and look at the text that we looked at on Good Friday if you were with us then. We will be in Romans chapter 4, verses 24 and 25, and then we'll look a little bit at chapter 5.I want to read this: "It will be counted to us who believe in him who raised from the dead Jesus our Lord." We gather on Easter and we're celebrating that Jesus was raised from the dead, that he was dead and then came alive again, that He was crucified, buried, and then resurrected. His disciples, His mother, those who followed Him, the centurion, the religious leaders—they all saw Him die, saw Him buried, and then came back to life.There's a story recounted in Luke chapter 24 where Jesus's disciples are together and Jesus shows up after He had been crucified and buried. When He appears, His disciples are frightened and think He's a ghost. I've always thought that was funny that it's included in the Bible, but it makes a lot of sense. If you watch someone be brutally murdered and then be buried, and then you're gathered with people to be sad about it, and then they show up, your response isn't "oh!" Your response is "ah!" You immediately think something's wrong with you, your mind is broken, or ghosts are real. You don't jump to maybe there's a resurrection, maybe you've conquered death.Jesus shows them His hands and feet and says, "I have hands and feet; spirits don't." He's like, "Ghosts don't have feet, but I do because I'm real." And then He eats food. He verifies that He's been resurrected; He was literally dead and then literally rose back to life. We're going to study a text that helps us understand why that's wonderful because if you don't know much about Christianity, you may know that Jesus died and rose, but we want to know why that's wonderful.There are people in this room who have things they've done or that have happened, and you're like, "It's happened, it's done, it's sealed, it's final, it's official, it's locked in." But if we follow a God who can rise from the grave, then He can undo things that are sealed and locked in. The most final thing we have is death. You don't go see a judge and they're like, "All right, you're going to be executed today and then you better be at work tomorrow." That's not how it works. The most final thing we have is death. If He can undo that, then He can undo the things that we carry with us.We will see why it's wonderful. It says, "It will be counted to us who believe in him who raised from the dead Jesus our Lord, who was delivered up for our trespasses." That's what we looked at on Friday—that He was delivered up for our trespasses, meaning that we have actual debt, actual sin. One pastor says that sin does something; it literally does something in the world, in spiritual reality. He said it's similar to if I came to your house and broke something.Let's say you invited me over to watch something on your television. During our enjoyment, I got very frustrated and threw something at it, breaking it. The party is over; your TV is broken, and I have a debt. I have a guess that you like your TV, since you invited me over specifically to watch it. We have a problem: something is broken, and there are only a few options. I can pay the debt, or you can. Those are our options. I can fix what's broken; the cost can come from me, or the cost can come from you. Even if you said, "Don't worry about it," that doesn't fix your TV. You're just saying you'll pay the debt or incur the cost by never watching TV again or getting a new one.Do you know who can't say "Don't worry about it"? Me. I can't ruin the party and then go, "Wait, don't worry about it, it's not a big deal, let's pretend it never happened." The one person who can't do that is me. I can't bump into you, spill something on your shirt, and go, "Let's just forget this ever happened. Let's move on. It's not a big deal. It's your shirt, it's not mine. Let's just go about our day." I can't do that.Y'all realize we do that sometimes with people. We'll say, "Well, I don't know why it's such a big deal. God just needs to, like, why does He care?" That's us breaking the TV and then saying, "Don't worry about it." We can't do that. There's real debt, real trespass, a real cost.What we're celebrating is that Jesus paid it—that He was delivered up for our trespasses. That's what we talked about on Good Friday, that He paid the debt. Then it says this: that He was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification. Not only did He take our debt, but when He rose, He was raised for our justification.Justification is an intentional legal word. It's very specific, precise, legally precise language. Now if you don't work in law or contracts, you might not see a lot of legally precise language. I think the place we most run into it is on food labels. For example, if you buy Cheese Whiz or something you spray on stuff, it says "processed cheese food" because it can't just say "cheese" since it's not just cheese. It can't say "processed cheese" because then cheese would be a noun. It says "processed cheese food," where "cheese" is an adjective describing the type of food it is. You're like, "What am I eating?" Scientists say, "Food." You're like, "Yeah, but what do you mean?" They're like, "Well, it's a cheese food." So legally precise language.If you buy Pringles, it doesn't say chips, it says crisps. What is a crisp? Legally, it's not a chip. That's about all I know—it's legally precise language.One of the places I appreciated this most was on the show The Biggest Loser. On that show, people try to lose weight. It sounds like they just got them together to make fun of them, but actually they lose weight, and the biggest loser is the winner—it's clever and confusing. My wife and I used to watch it, popcorn and Mountain Dew, and they would do challenges.In these challenges, to win immunity for the week, they'd have to eat a lot of sweets like Pop-Tarts or cupcakes. The trainers would be mad because they were breaking the spirit of the game. But the funny part was: they weren't allowed to say "Pop-Tarts" because they didn't have the rights, so they had to say "sugar-frosted breakfast pastries." It was like a game of Taboo.The reason I mention this is that the word "justified" in this text is intentionally precise, legal language. It's wonderful because "justified" means legally not guilty in court, but actually it means better than not guilty. It means declared righteous, ruled in your favor—that you are made righteous, declared righteous, legally not guilty, and you get to walk out free. It's officially accomplished by God in the highest court.This is beautiful, legally precise language. When He was raised, it was for our justification, meaning that you have been declared righteous, that He took your sin to the cross, and that when He rose, you have been made righteous. The debt has been paid.It's not just that Jesus says, "Hey, if you come to me I'll forgive your sins, and you need to go live a good life." He doesn't just wipe the slate clean; He signs your name at the top and turns it in. That has been applied to your account.Periodically, I'll hear Christians say things like, and they're right in one aspect, "I'm a sinner; I have debt." If you come in and say, "I'm a pretty good person," we want to tell you, "No, you're not." If nobody's been kind enough yet to point out how not wonderful you are, welcome to Mil City Church. No, you're not. We are so thoroughly unimpressed with you. You're a sinner. You have real debt. You have real trespasses. We want you to be aware that you innately sin—that you sin on your own and then, when you know it's sin, you still do it. Once you learn it was wrong, you still do it. You can't just say, "It's okay because you're offended; you caused the offense; you can't declare it's okay."So, you're a sinner, but if you belong to Jesus, you are not. You are justified and made righteous. I hear Christians sometimes say, "I'm the worst, I'm just so terrible, I'm always waiting." And I say, "And then Jesus made you righteous?" If you belong to Christ, no, you're not. You're not guilty—you're made righteous. Paul calls himself the chief of sinners in the context of declaring he's received mercy. He says that so everyone else can know if Paul can be forgiven, so can you.The hope that we have is that He was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification—that we've been made righteous. But there's a way this happens; it applies this way.Go back to the beginning of the sentence: It says, "It will be counted to us." What is "it"? It is what Jesus has done, what Jesus has done will be counted to us, accredited to us, put on our account, granted to us, applied to us. It is what Jesus has done.How will it be counted to us? By belief. That you believe in Christ, believe that God raised Him from the dead, that you believe He paid your debt, that you want it applied to your account. Then it will be applied.There's a movie called My Cousin Vinny. My wife was out of town, and I was bored, so I watched it again. It's about two young guys from New York going to school in Alabama. They're in the wrong place at the wrong time, driving the wrong car, and get accused of murder. Because they're from New York, it's not going well. Then one says, "I'm going to call my cousin Vinny," a lawyer from New York.Vinny shows up. It's not going well. There's tension over whether he'll represent them. The local guy is worse than Vinny. There's a big moment in court where Vinny says to the local guy, "You're fired. I want to represent my cousin."It's a moment where you can look cosmically at God and say, "I want Jesus to represent me. I want Him to go before me. I want Him to take my debt. I want Him to grant His righteousness to me." And it will be counted if you believe. It will be applied to your account by belief. It will be accomplished not by you but by Him. You trust that His death paid your trespasses and His resurrection justified you before the Lord, declared innocent, righteous, holy, and blameless if you'll just believe. If you'll just look and say, "I want Jesus to pay my debt. I want Jesus to cover me. I trust Him. I believe He's good. I do not want to represent myself."That's what it's saying. It will be counted to us who believe.So again: "It will be counted to us who believe in Him who raised from the dead Jesus our Lord, who was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification."Therefore, since we have been justified by faith—we're justified by faith.That's the legal word again: not by works, not by morality, not by intelligence, not by effort—you're justified by faith, by trusting Him, not yourself.And that makes so much sense. What doesn't work before God is for you to sin, fail, then go to Him and say, "Don't worry. I got this. I'm going to be good enough, pay it off, do so well that you can't help but respond singing my praises." That doesn't work.Instead, we come and say, "I trust Jesus. I believe He's good. I believe He's righteous. I believe He paid my debt. I want Him to represent me. I want Him to cover me." And we say, "I trust that He's good."The Bible says there will be nobody who entrusts themselves to Him who is put to shame. Nobody that calls on Him will be put to shame. Nobody who says, "If He doesn't cover it, I'm in trouble," will be put to shame. Everyone who comes to Him for mercy will receive mercy.We are to be justified by faith, so you just believe. You just trust in the finished work of Jesus.Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.You ever been at odds with someone? You can feel it. You've done something, said something, and you're around them and can feel the tension.It says there is no tension between those who belong to Jesus and the God of the universe.Every once in a while, I'll bust into one of my children's rooms. They're little—wouldn't do this when they're older, but I do it sometimes just to mess with them. I say, "Aha!" Just to mess with them. It's fun because often they just look at you like, "What? I was perfectly innocent. I wasn't doing anything." Other times, the guilt gets to them. They feel like they've been caught.I had a son hide something one time—a toy. He just needed to hide it; it was nothing serious.The idea is God can look at you and you can just be free. Nothing to worry about, no hint of fear. No "Oh wait." If people announced, "I'm going to come tour your house today," you'd be like, "Hold on. Is it clean? How do I…?" But with God, there's peace.We have peace with God through the work of Jesus. We're free.Some people think Christians are always looking over their shoulders like God's ready to get them. No. Jesus paid the debt. God's not mad at you if you belong to Christ, if you've trusted Him. He's not disappointed, upset, or frustrated because the debt has been paid.Jesus was delivered up for your trespasses. He was raised for your justification.You've been declared innocent, free.When I was growing up, my dad was self-employed, and sometimes things went well—but other times, it was tight.My parents would sit my brothers and me down and say, "Money's really tight. If any of you want something, you're going to be in big trouble." They would say, "You're going to eat what we give you and be happy about it."Sometimes, we got to go eat at places with cafeterias. Back then, there was Piccadilly. Let me explain how this works: When you get there, you can see the food, but you can't access it. The food is in what I call "food prison." There are food wardens who put the food on your plate, and every item you get means debt you'll pay later.There were times when we got to go, but beforehand, my dad would say, "Look…" When we got there, he'd tell us what we were allowed. One piece of chicken, two vegetables, some Jell-O. He'd be looking at the cake like, "You know you can't have that."We knew the terms in advance, which was good parenting—pre-threaten your children in the truck, then when they try something, just give them the look. Pre-threatening inflates the meaning.We were supposed to get what we got and be thankful.Then there were buffets, which were very different. There used to be more buffets—Ryan's, Quincy's, Western Sizzler. We had a place called Fire Mountain. Ryan's had a roll as big as your head.At a buffet, you pay first and then you're free. There's no food warden; you hold the scoop. Nobody protects the food from you. At SNS, you were supposed to get a little and be happy. At a buffet, you're free.When my dad took us to buffets, it was so we could hurt ourselves. We were supposed to pile things up, show him, and eat it all—not waste it—try different foods: soft serve, cookies, that weird pink stuff no one liked.Jesus has been raised for our justification.Christianity is not the SNS cafeteria; it's a buffet. I don't mean license to sin but freedom and joy—a feast.The debt has been paid. As Christians, we need to repent of sin, mourn the brokenness in the world. But the default mode of the Christian life is joy because Christ is resurrected.There is no debt; it's all been paid.We walk with our heads held up, hearts full, rejoicing in the freedom and hope Christ has given, to His glory.When I piled food on my plate at a buffet, it brought joy to my dad's heart that I appreciated what he had bought.When we walk as Christians with hope, fellowship, life, joy, and eternity in focus, acknowledging that when we sin, we have propitiation—that Someone stands between us and God—we are not guilty.We go to Him in grace and forgiveness and say, "It's never been about me; it's about You. My trust is in You, the glorious King who saves sinners."That brings joy and delight to His heart because He already paid the cost.We walk in freedom.Galatians says, "It is for freedom that He set us free." I used to read that and wonder, "What does that mean?" It means freedom.I'm not supposed to think, "I can't pile two things on my plate at the buffet." I'm supposed to enjoy it, delight, and walk in joy.That's what we celebrate at Easter.If you've trusted in Him, you are not dirty, broken, covered in sin.He was delivered up for your trespasses and raised for your justification.If He is risen and you've trusted Him, you are free, covered, blameless, and it's already happened.We aren't waiting for the sentence to be dropped. We're not in court waiting to hear our fate. If you've trusted Jesus, the sentence has been passed. He was declared guilty. We have been made righteous.The band's coming back up. We're going to sing.If you're a Christian, I remind you Jesus is risen and you are free and made righteous.If you have not placed your faith in Jesus and plan to represent yourself in court—plan with your own wisdom, morality, goodness, or just declaring, "It's not that big a deal"—I say: Trust Jesus.Place your faith in Him. Go to the Lord and say, "I want Jesus to cover me. I want Jesus to stand in for me. I want Jesus to pay my debt. When He died, pay my sin. When He rose, give me life."And it will be counted for those who believe.Let's pray.Jesus, we are thankful for the hope of the resurrection that holds secure through the finished work of Jesus—that all who call on Your name will be saved.You were delivered up for our sin, raised for our justification, and in You and You alone we have hope.May Your name be glorified. Amen.

RECENT TEACHINGS
You can trust Jesus. Even when life seems uncertain, Jesus already knows what He will do. The loaves may seem too few, the net too empty, the situation too far gone, but in His hands, miracles unfold. Trust Him with your little, your broken, your all… because He's never failed, and He never will. Amen.
"The ultimate protection promised is not necessarily found in avoidance of all the elements, events, suffering, and sorrow we fear in our uncertain future. The protection that we all need, now and in the face of the unknowns of the future, is found in the Lord’s promise to provide… absolutely all that we need." - Keri Eichberger Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
Spencer Davis | Winter SWOIn this sermon, Spencer tackles the question, "Why do bad things happen to good people?" using the story of Job. Spencer emphasizes that our questions come from a limited perspective, like a child not understanding the bigger picture. He then focuses on Jesus, who humbled Himself to die for sinners like us. The real mystery isn't why bad things happen, but why God would die for us. Trust Jesus, follow His example of humility, and serve others. Even if we don't have all the answers, we can trust the God who gave everything for us.Philippians 2Job 38Please leave a review on Apple or Spotify to help others grow in their faith.

Bible Reading: Matthew 5:44-46Roman stomped into the house and headed for the stairs, not even bothering to say hello to his family. "Hey there, Roman!" Dad called from his place at the counter. Roman mumbled something and then proceeded upstairs and slammed his bedroom door. The house shook. Eva, his sister, entered the house a moment later. Mom finished chopping a potato and gave her a hug. "What's wrong with Roman?" Mom asked. Eva opened the fridge and dug out an apple. "Well, this kid named Carson Peters keeps bullying and teasing him," she replied. "Especially on the walk home from school." Later that evening, Roman was asked to help make his mom's famous homemade applesauce. As he chopped apples, he remembered some of the things Carson had said to him on the way home from school. Infuriated, Roman slammed the knife into the apple. The apple squished and splattered all over him and the counter."Oh dear. I suppose that was a rotten apple. I should be more careful when I pick out the bags at the market," Mom said, wiping the gunk off Roman and the surrounding area. "Why did you slam the knife so hard?" she asked. "You could've hurt yourself." "Well, I--I was just thinking about what this guy Carson said to me earlier. He says a lot of mean things." "I think how you're dealing with this is a bit like that rotten apple," Mom said as she mashed up the good apples. "You've been holding all this inside. Allowing angry, bitter feelings like that to stay in your heart can make you rot inside. Eventually, they would've overflowed--or in your case, exploded." Roman sprinkled some cinnamon into the apple mixture. "I guess I thought I could deal with it on my own." "Sometimes the only way to deal with something--or someone--is to ask for help," said Mom. "Jesus loves you so much that He died to save you, and He wants you to go to Him with your problems and hard feelings. He also puts people in your life to help you--like your dad and me. Let us help with the situation, and trust God to help you release those feelings and replace them with His love and peace." –Taylor Carey How About You?Has someone ever been mean to you? Sometimes it's easier to bottle up hard feelings instead of dealing with them. But God wants us to cast our hardships onto Him, and He gives us people to support us. Don't be afraid to ask for help with bullies or other difficult situations and tell a trusted adult how you're feeling. Trust Jesus to comfort you and give you the power to love those who hurt you the way He loves us. Today's Key Verse:Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you. (NLT) (1 Peter 5:7)Today's Key Thought:Share your hurts with others
