Sin, Sorrow, and Repentance

“There were some present at that very time who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2 And he answered them, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered in this way? 3 No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish. 4 Or those […]

The One Thing I Miss

In July 2007, I left my job at State Farm to join the Crosspoint staff full-time as the Community Life/Teaching Pastor.  Needless to say, it was a big change and transition for me and our family, as I had been at State Farm for almost 10 years.  Now almost 6 years after having left the […]

Reconciliation

This week in our series on the life of Peter, we’re looking at Peter’s BOLD sin (Luke 22) and restoration (John 21). Thefreedictionary.com defines the word “reconcile” this way – to reestablish a close relationship.  Another way to define the word is to restore fully.   When Jesus restored Peter in John 12, He was reestablishing a […]

Bold – Life of Peter

I know this one guy.  He’s a blue collar guy.  Works really hard, provides for his family.  Works some long nights, often on 3rd shift, at a job that could cost him his life.  What he does is not always OSHA approved, but he does it anyways.  Because that is the kind of guy he […]
