We look at the origins of Abram's story.  First we see problems in the land of his nativity (Ur of the Chaldeans).   Then we see a call which results in partial obedience from Abram.  This call includes some amazing unconditional promises.  Finally, we see Abram moving into a fuller obedience followed by a fresh visitation from the LORD. 

In this most holy of Psalms,  King David describes the Forsaken One who feels abandoned by The Father.  As a prophet (Acts 2:30),  David speaks of the future abandonment of the Messiah (Jesus Christ).  The crucifixion of Christ is prophesied in amazing and precise detail.   The Suffering Messiah would be crucified, but later return as the Sovereign King.  Jesus Christ took our place on the Cross, so that we might be made righteous (2 Cor 5:21).

We take a look at one of the most well-known passages in all of Scripture.  Sadly, this Psalm has been relegated to be read only at funerals or memorial gatherings.   It's certainly appropriate to share at such times.  There are also may applications to the living in this wonderful Psalm.   King David looks back over his life- not as a king, or even as a shepherd....but as one of the LORD's sheep! 

Paul writes one final time to his son in the faith, Timothy.   Knowing that the church is about to face tremendous persecution after his death,  Paul seeks to undergird Timothy's faith.  His appeal is to the two women who had been most instrumental in his faith journey.  Those women were his grandmother Lois and his mother Eunice.  Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers and spiritual mothers who faithfully share God's Word with their children! 

We close out the Epilogue of the Gospel of John in this episode.  After Peter is informed about the manner of his death, he turns to see the beloved Apostle John.  In a moment of pure and honest humanity, he asks about John's fate.   We will look at Jesus' reply as well as John's final statement on the greatness of Jesus Christ! 

On the shores of the Sea of Galilee,  Jesus continues His conversation with Peter.   He explains to Peter that he is going to glorify God in his death.  There are some truths we can learn about life and death from this passage.  Join us for our message today with an open Bible!
