Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus's disciples infamous for his betrayal of Jesus, is a character that evokes a multitude of emotions and thoughts for us as Christians... How could he? Why would he? What does it mean? And so on. We may never be able to answer all of these questions, but we can still learn from Judas and his story. Here in John 13, we examine the lesson, the warning, and the reflection regarding Judas, the betrayer.

May 26, 2024 • Pastor Scott • John 15:18–27, John 16:1–4

In John 15, Jesus promises persecution for his disciples in this world. Throughout these chapters Jesus has been preparing His disciples for the challenges they will face in a world that will often be hostile to their message and their way of life. As followers of Christ in our world today, we too are called to understand the reality of opposition and to heed the call to remain steadfast in our faith in the midst of it.

The Master's Command - John 15 pt.2

May 19, 2024 • Pastor Scott • John 15:12–17

As followers of Christ, we are called to embody His love in all that we do. The command to love one another as He has loved us is not a suggestion but rather, it is a fundamental aspect of our identity as His disciples. So then, let us heed Jesus' words and strive to love our brothers and sisters in Christ sacrificially and selflessly, choosing to do good to others in the name of Jesus.
