Don't You Dare
Don't Be Afraid
March 12, 2023 • Pastor Mike Maiolo • Luke 19:11–27
Jesus is on His way to Jerusalem for the last time. His followers were excited about this final trip, thinking Jesus would set up His earthly kingdom. He tells them a story to further clarify His intent to make this final entry into Jerusalem. He did NOT want them to be afraid of what will take place, but to walk in trust and obedience to Him.
Don't Defy Change
March 5, 2023 • Pastor Mike Maiolo • Luke 19:1–10
We need a sense of urgency for God like we have never had before. Our world is spiraling downward, but we have been given new life to bring change to the world. Who feels like they don’t measure up for the task? Zacchaeus was short in many ways, but Jesus brought a miracle into his life. What about us? How desperate are we to get to Jesus?
Don't Be Mistaken
February 12, 2023 • Pastor Scott Kilpatrick • Luke 18:31–34
Have you ever made big plans that didn’t pan out? Have you ever lost your dreams because something came along and wiped them out? (Covid, anybody?) Jesus is on the precipice of achieving the single greatest moment in redemptive history, and he is describing it to his disciples. But what Jesus describes looks nothing at all like what the disciples expect. In fact, it looks very much like the loss of every dream they ever had. How did Jesus’ disciples keep going when it looked like all their plans were going up in smoke?
Don't Misplace Your Priorities
February 5, 2023 • Pastor Mike Maiolo • Luke 18:18–30
Outward appearances can be deceiving. From every outward appearance, this man was riding high on success; even with all this, he knew he was unprepared to die. This man asks the all-important question of life, and he comes to the right person.
Don't Be A Hypocrite
January 22, 2023 • Pastor Mike Maiolo • Luke 18:9–14
What does it mean to truly walk in humility? Arrogant people repel others, but the humble attract others to God. Every day we are faced with choices, pride being the easiest way, but choosing humility takes strength that only God can give. What will you choose?
Don't Give Up
January 15, 2023 • Pastor Mike Maiolo • Luke 18:1–8
What do you do when you don’t see results in prayer? Sometimes, it is difficult to continue when we don’t see results. What do you do when the more you pray for something, the worse things seem? Let’s examine the time Jesus told about the power of one woman’s persistence in prayer.
