May 6, 2012 Sermon
John 15:1-8
Pastor Steven D. Bruns
This passage gives us great hope and a wonderful image.
Christ will abide with us forever if we are willing to abide with Him. However, this hope comes with two warnings:
- We must be pruned
- If we are not pruned we may be cut off

John 10:11-18
Pastor Steven D. Bruns
In this Gospel passage, Jesus takes the image of the Good Shepherd from Ezekiel 34 and applies it to himself.
To His listeners, this meant that Jesus was identifying himself not only as the Messiah and descendant of David, but as God himself!

Luke 24:36-48
Pastor Steven D. Bruns
In this Gospel passage, three main points are shown: Jesus physically raised from the dead and was not a spirit or “remembrance” of his presence among the disciples; it is God who gives understanding for the Bible and without his Spirit we cannot understand Scripture; and it is impossible to have a Christian life of grace and glory without suffering, since Christ had to both suffer and was then glorified.
Subtle Reminders from God
John 20:19-23
Ken Irvine (Candidate for Ordained Ministry)
Christ Is Risen!
He Is Risen Indeed!
The risen Christ, our Lord and Savior, gave us the most incredible gift of all time – an empty tomb! That empty tomb means through Christ we are able to defeat sin and death for all eternity. Christ’s gift of the Holy Spirit means that same spirit which enabled the apostles to accomplish such incredible things dwells inside us, enabling us to do the same thing.
Take heart, the Spirit is with us always, which means we are never alone. The Spirit will be ever-present, enabling us to deal with anything that comes along.
