The encounter that Saul of Tarsus had with Jesus of Nazareth is notable because it happened after Jesus rose from the dead and ascended into heaven. This shows us that even after He left the earth, the resurrected Jesus continued to pursue people in His desire to change lives. What we find out in this encounter is that God had been pursuing Saul all along, preparing him for the day he encountered him on the road to Damascus.

An Invitation to the Dinner Table

September 24, 2023 • Pastor Mark Wilson • 1 Thessalonians 4:16–18, Revelation 22:3, Isaiah 65:16–17

We know that scripture reveals that we will all have a personal encounter with Jesus. The fact is that we will never be totally satisfied until the day when we are face-to-face with Jesus in heaven—the place that He promised to prepare for us. What do we know about that encounter? What will Heaven be like?

The Skeptic and the Risen Lord

September 17, 2023 • Pastor Mark Wilson • John 20:19–20

Thomas was determined to face life honestly. If Jesus was dead, then he would have to face it. As he had always done before, he would have to come to grips with the facts and just move on. Even though some of the disciples claimed that Jesus had appeared to them, Thomas needed to be more cautious this time. Can you blame him? If he were to believe and jump back in this time fully, he would have to have his own encounter with Jesus.

The men: Peter, James, and John—were about to have an encounter that would shake them to their core, challenge them in their call, and later on propel them in their cause. They thought they knew Jesus, but when they encountered Him in His full glory it drove their confidence to an all-time high.
