Many Christians throughout history have attempted to predict the exact date of Jesus 2nd coming, forgetting that Jesus said we are to be part of the “welcoming committee” (inviting people into the kingdom) rather than the “planning committee” (setting the schedule for His coming). In this first message in a series called “No one knows the day or hour”, we’ll see how Jesus commands us to turn our attention outward and upward.

Jesus told many parables about the kingdom of heaven using the picutre of a party.

In this parable of the virgins, Jesus tells us to shine brightly as we faithfully wait for His return.

Hebrews 13:4 | Sun, Jul 22, 2012 | Pastor John Stillman

The NY Times declared not long ago that we live in a “post-marital society.” Marriage is on the decline. Divorce is on the incline. Cohabitation is up.

Psalm 122:1-9 | Sun, Dec 04, 2022 | Pastor John Stillman

What does it mean to be made for more? It does not mean you were made for more stuff, not more power, not more money not more possessions. You were not born primarily for these things. Pastor John Stillman takes a deeper look into Psalm 122 to answer the question what were we made for.
