Testimonies of the Truth

Search Party: Part 1

March 11, 2018 • Mike Linch

As one of Jesus's disciples, Judas was as close to the Truth as one could possibly be. At the same, time, he was as far from the Truth as anyone who is lost. As we begin the Search Party series, what can we learn from Judas - as well as Jesus's responses to him - to help us when our hearts begin to harden?

Search Party: Part 2

March 18, 2018 • Daniel Hoover

Peter wasn't just one of the 12 disciples; he was in the "inner circle" of Jesus' closest and most trusted friends. Yet, in Jesus' darkest hour, Peter denied him and did not want to be associated with him. Like Peter, why do we find ourselves running from total commitment to Jesus?

Search Party: Part 3

The Jews were desperate to eliminate Jesus. He was a threat to them. However, they needed the consent of the Romans to remove him from the picture. Enter Pilate. Awakened in the middle of the night by a raucous mob of Jewish leaders, Pilate is faced with the most difficult decision of his life. Would he do what was right, or what was popular?

After Jesus' death and burial, his disciples gathered together and hid away in a locked room. Sad, confused, and bewildered, they were about to encounter the resurrected Christ, who would give them some sobering reminders of what he had just endured, as well as a special "gift" that would equip them to change lives - and the world.

One of Jesus' disciples was tagged with a nickname for his unbelief. "Doubting" Thomas, however, was honest about his struggles to come to grips with the truth of Jesus' resurrection. After all, faith cannot exist without doubt. Mike Linch shares how Jesus responds to our doubts when we are searching for truth.

Search Party: Part 7

Peter had denied Jesus three times the night Jesus was arrested. And, while Peter was wallowing in shame and failure, Jesus was still making plans to use Peter to reach millions of people. But, Jesus had to repair Peter's heart and his spirit. Like he did with Peter, how can God use failure in our lives to propel us forward in His plan?

As they say, "Seeing is believing," and that is exactly why John wrote his Gospel.

Mike Linch concludes the Search Party series by sharing three keys to following Jesus that John learned from being with him for three years in ministry.
