Can we pursue God with boldness? Moses did!

From standing before a burning bush in confusion and fear, asking God to send someone else, we now find Moses fighting on behalf of the Israelites and knowing God intimately enough to be certain that He will respond in love. It is out of God’s good pleasure toward Moses and Moses’ desire for the people […]

We will once again be spending ten days with Pastor Jamie and the Calvary Chapel Church plant with a focus on so many different areas of ministry. Please be praying for this trip, for Gods Word to speak, for Jesus Name to be […]

Can we boldly pursue God, inquiring, asking, even petitioning Him?

The Ten Commandments!

What would culture look like if we actually honored the                                     Ten Commandments? Are they outdated? Has God done away with them? Are we under them, in such a way that if we break one there       […]

The Crucifixion!

The Crucifixion? How important is it to your life, or greater yet, your eternity? Are we really good people? Do we really have everything figured out and are we content with the world-view we have been exposed to growing up? Would everything change were we to come face to face with the reality that Someone, […]

“Worshipping Through Suffering” – The Book Of Job

 “Worshipping Through Suffering” – The Book Of Job March 23rd 2014 – Branches Church – Huntington Beach, CA. From the “Worthy” series, what does it mean to “Lament”? Is it a form of worship? Are we pursuing God? Is He present? What can we learn from Job, and the Nation of Israel, as they faced […]

SUICIDE? DEPRESSION? ANXIETY? PARANOIA?

SUICIDE? DEPRESSION? ANXIETY? PARANOIA? Who do you know that faces such things daily and who may need to hear the truth? This past week has been a reminder of the pain and hurt people face and carry, and while we may feel it best to post the beauty and joy in life, it was while […]

Do you see Jesus as He truly is? The Transfiguration? The Shekinah Glory?

How often are we disgruntled, challenged, shaken, while still we are meant to have faith in Christ? Having faith in The Savior does not always mean we are as bold, and confident as we should be. As much as we believe in God, have had an encounter with Jesus and have been born again, the […]

The “Transfiguration”. Luke 9:27-37.

Having just performed many miracles, and then asking the disciples who they say Jesus is, we see that they are shaken to the core, as Jesus begins to reveal His journey towards The Cross. So many supposed Messiahs have come and gone, with many of them dying, even being crucified. So what makes Jesus any different? […]

Is God Jealous?

“Is God Jealous?”  Richard Dawkins and Oprah have both settled on their understanding of The God of the Bible, and His being “jealous”. Are they, like many, basing their findings on opinion, or what God Himself choses to reveal to us about His Jealous character?    Some years ago I partnered with a friends ministry […]

Based on Luke 8:40-56, we look at how “Jesus Restores”.

The Woman with the issue of blood, and Jairus’s daughter? What do we see in these stories that reveals the restoration Jesus brings? As we close out Luke chapter 8, Jesus raises a dead girl and heals a woman who was sick. Defying societal expectations, Jesus does a healing for two people on opposite sides […]
