I PETER 5:8-11

May 31, 2020 There are many in the Bible who experienced direct attacks from the devil himself, or Satan: First, of course, was Eve, who was tempted by Satan to eat the forbidden fruit of the Garden.  Remember, his was ultimately an enticement to pride – to be like God.  Eve, and Adam, giving into that temptation […]

I PETER 5:5-7

May 24, 2020 It was the night before His crucifixion.  The disciples – the Twelve – had gathered with Him in an upper room to observe the Passover.  The last Passover.  You see, it was there He introduced the first Lord’s Supper – this is My body, broken for you.  This is My blood, shed for your forgiveness. Let’s […]

I PETER 5:1-4

May 17, 2020 So we have spent several months in the book of I Peter.  It’s clear by now Peter was writing to Christians in Asia Minor who were suffering persecution.  So he told them and us, make sure you live beautiful lives among unbelievers, even though they oppose you, so they see your good works, your […]

MOTHER’S DAY

May 10, 2020 We often hear that being a child today is more difficult than when we were kids.  We didn’t have to face the same pressures and temptations and challenges they face today.  Well, if that’s true, and I believe it is, then it is also true that being a parent today is harder than it’s […]

I PETER 4:12-19

May 3, 2020 If you have not heard it yet, you will.  It is only a matter of time.  While political parties are fighting, as if a certain party or certain governmental leaders are responsible for the COVID-19 outbreak, the fact remains that an unseen enemy – a virus invisible to the human eye – has brought […]

I PETER 4:7-11

April 26, 2020 This is now our seventh Sunday of live-streaming.  Seven weeks in which we’ve tried to gather separately, to worship, pray and spend time in God’s Word.  And maybe the first week or two you kinda liked it – you enjoyed sitting on the couch in your pajamas, eating a bowl of cereal.  Scrolling through Facebook, […]

1 PETER 4: 1-6

April 19, 2020 Some of you have heard this statement, “The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.”  The idea is every time a Christian’s blood is spilled, it becomes the seed by which more and more believe the Gospel.  What is interesting is the context of the statement. Of course, it’s […]

Easter Sunday

April 12, 2020 “Why Do You Seek the Living One Among the Dead?” Luke 23:55-24:12 I’m sure the last thing you want to hear on Easter Sunday morning is more about the global pandemic called COVID-19.  But it is undoubtedly a pressing issue for us.  So just briefly, by way of introduction, let’s address it.  […]

Palm Sunday

April 5, 2020 Today is Palm Sunday.  On this day in history, Jesus, a peasant carpenter – a Galilean from Nazareth, no less – jumped on the colt of a donkey, rode into Jerusalem, and turned the place upside down.  Turned the world upside down.  Will you think about that for a minute? If I […]

1 PETER 3:18-22

March 29, 2020 Good morning, Alliance family.  This is now our third week worshipping together virtually – that is, by live streaming.  What is interesting is over the past two weeks, we’ve had more views of our worship service online than we have people who attend our church.  I’m encouraged by that – it means […]
