Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 12:27-50. This particular passage of scripture should, firstly, draw us into a spirit of thanksgiving for what the Lord Jesus has done. Secondly, it turns our attention to an idea of attentiveness - receiving Christ where He is, when He is. At some point, the throne of grace will not be available. Thirdly, the idea of sobriety, that Jesus is the light and anyone without this light walks in darkness. Lastly, the concept of grasping reality. God is sovereign but man is still responsible. There is a point at which our hearts can become so hardened there is no return.

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 12:1-26. This chapter contains a number of narratives that continue to reveal the character of the Lord Jesus Christ and the great purposes that the Father had for the Son. When you look at John's gospel, you can see a spiritual maturity that he gained, in Christ. This gospel helps us understand the profound basis and ground of our relationship to Christ - love. But, what does love mean? The greatest joy we can have is when we are loving another person.

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 11:1-44. This chapter draws our attention to Mary's, Martha's, and Lazarus's love and enriched and fervent devotion to the Lord Jesus Christ. It also draws our attention to the way Jesus expresses the sovereignty of God and the tenderness of a loving God-man. And lastly, how we might deal with the difficulties and challenges of suffering.

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 10:1-42. Chapter 9 and 10 speak to spiritual clarity and understanding, what is really true about God and ourselves. This point is continued in chapter 10 with the concept of the Lord Jesus being the good shepherd. He is establishing the simple idea that the relationship between the Lord Jesus and the redeemed is that of a shepherd and His sheep - a glorious relationship. When we think about sheep, it may be that we consider that being a sheep is a mark of immaturity. We may be persuaded that we can become spiritually mature enough to not be considered sheep anymore; but that is not true. Our dependency is not a mark of immaturity as we will never mature out of needing a shepherd. As sheep, we are dependent creatures and our maturity in Christ will never change that fact.

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 9:1-41. One of the subjects we encounter in this chapter is the simple question, asked in 9:2, “Who sinned?”. This draws us into the doctrine of God’s providence and His governance. We see that suffering isn’t always a result of retribution or chastisement but sometimes, as seen continued in verse 3, it is to glorify God.

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 8:12-38. A couple major themes we have discussed thus far are the concept of judging with right judgment, which involves clarity and the light that only Christ can provide which is seen in chapter 8, and understanding the truth, which also requires the light of conscious only available in Christ. Jesus brings attention to spiritual things opposed to physical things such as with the Samaritan woman, Nicodemus, and His feeding the crowds. In these verses, we see the idea that He is the light of the world. He brings attention to the Jews regarding spiritual freedom and their enslavement.

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 8:1-11. Thematically, in John chapter 8, we see that the Lord Jesus Christ is the true light and truth itself. He brings freedom from enslavement to sin.

Please join us as Pastor Carlos Garcia continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 7:1-53. What does Jesus mean when He speaks of judging? How do we judge rightly? Judgmentalism is forbidden, but not moral discernment. Jesus wants us to be able to judge rightly, not by appearances but with right judgment. Ultimately, wrong judgment both comes from and results in unbelief.
