Who Is This?

For more than two thousand years, people have been asking who is Jesus. Was he a great, but misunderstood, teacher? Was he the King of Kings, a prophet, or just a fool who believed himself to be God’s Son? Even Jesus’ disciples pondered Jesus’ identity at times, and we will learn what they discovered about him in this week’s sermon.


Scripture: Mark 4:35-41

On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” And leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. Other boats were with him. A great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already being swamped. But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” He woke up and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” Then the wind ceased, and there was a dead calm. He said to them, “Why are you afraid? Have you still no faith?” And they were filled with great awe and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”


Renewing Reflections

It is our prayer that Renewing Reflections will be a blessing in your life this coming week. This quote is taken from the sermon The Hand That Holds Me delivered on Christian Crusaders April 29, 2007:


We hear Jesus say, “No one will snatch them out of my hand.” No matter what happens to me in this life, Jesus holds on. When I am sick, he is holding onto me. When I am facing adversity, Jesus holds on. As I face death, Jesus still holds on. The grave may come my way, and you can be certain that it will, but for those of us who trust in Jesus Christ, it is simply a graduation time. A place is prepared for us in our Father’s heaven, and nothing can snatch us away from the loving hand of Jesus Christ, not even death.

On the Light Side

Harry was showing off again. He said to George, “I’ve just bought the best hearing aid money can buy. It cost me $3,000, but it is state of the art, so it’s worth every penny.”

“What kind is it?” asks George.


“A quarter to twelve,” replied Harry.
