Luke 13: 1 – 9. Pastor Chris walks through 4 key themes in this Gospel reading to help us understand more.
Luke
Eyes on the Prize
March 16, 2025
Scripture: Luke 13: 31 – 35. In today’s gospel reading Jesus’ eyes are set on the ancient city of Jerusalem – the Holy City. Listen with us a Pastor Chris explains why this was important for us.
Deliver Me
March 9, 2025
Luke 4: 1 – 13. Today is the 1st Sunday in Lent and we will be using the Lectionary for the next weeks. In today’s passage Jesus is confronted with 3 temptations that are common to all of us in various degrees. Listen with us as Pastor Hagler explains more.
Take A Hike!
March 2, 2025
Luke 9: 28 – 36. This morning’s gospel reading we find Peter, James, and John hiking up a mountain with Jesus. It could have been Mt. Hermon or Mt. Tabor. In the Bible when speaking of a mountain, we think of the closeness and proximity of God to hear and listen to His words. Have you ever had an “experience that was life changing”? Listen as Pastor Hagler goes deeper.
Helicopter Parents

Pastor Hagler talks about how Jesus was lost for 3 days and the anguish of Mary & Joseph. Only to find him teaching and asking questions in the Temple.
Are You Home for Christmas?
December 24, 2024
The Bible reminds us quite frequently that our lives and really humanity in general is one of being away from home.
It Seemed so Unlikely!
December 22, 2024
Christmas is about the unlikely. The gospel of Luke details an unlikely event and person from the passage, from the prophet Micah.
The Greatest of all Time?
December 15, 2024
We get a glimpse and possible idea from what Luke preserved from John the Baptist’ preaching: repentance, sharing, and honest morality and ethics followed by a warning. Jesus spoke about John being the greatest born of women.
Who did you send?
December 8, 2024
Pastor Chris talks about 6 names from the first century; names that illustrate and mark out a time and place in the world. They are names that are associated with power and what they represent. Then aligns them with John the Baptist being sent to communicate an important message.
Is Your Head in the Cloud?
December 1, 2024
Interesting how the 1st Sunday in Advent is unnerving because it speaks about the end of the world and Christ coming back in power and great glory in a cloud. Pastor Hagler explains more.
