The Passion of Our Lord According to the Gospel of Matthew

This year we will be using the Visual Gospel of Matthew videos for our Passion history.  The dialogue from the video is word for word from the NIV84.  Due to copyright restrictions we cannot show these videos on our live stream.  You can find the passion videos on our YouTube channel HERE.

By His Wounds We Are Healed – Lent 5

There is a devoted commitment at the center of Christianity, but it is not man’s commitment to God. Even believers will at times demonstrate lukewarm commitment at best. Instead, at the heart of Christianity we find God’s devotion and commitment to us. It is a devoted commitment so strong that it put God on the cross.

This year we will offer a sermon series based on the words of Jesus’ enemies.  This series started on Ash Wednesday and will run through the 5th Sunday in Lent.

  1. John 11:49-53–Caiaphas:  “It Is Better That One Man Die for the People.”
  2. Matthew 27:19–Pilate’s Wife:  “Don’t Have Anything to Do with that Innocent Man.”
  3. Luke 22:70-71–Sanhedrin:  “We Have Heard It from His Own Lips”
  4. Mathew 27:4–Judas:  “I Have Sinned, for I Have Betrayed Innocent Blood”
  5. John 19:2,3–Pilate’s Soldiers:  “Hail, King of the Jews”
  6. Matthew 27:41-42–Chief Priests:  “He Saved Others, But He Can’t
    Save Himself.”

For our after-worship Bible studies, we will consider a few questions from the Passion account shown during the service that day and then dig into one of the lessons appointed for that Sunday in Lent.
