Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - March 06, 2016
Between Palm Sunday and Good Friday the Lord spent His time teaching in the temple. By looking at some examples of the Lord's teaching, we can see that the leaders of the Jews were becoming more desperate and combative. The Lord responds with teaching them the truth which they reject and seek to kill Him. To be able to draw closer to the Lord We must be able to hear hard truth and accept it with humility. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PACrying Hosanna! or Lord, Save Me From Myself!

The "saving" that we think about here, is saving from the negative voices that want to discourage us. | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZThe Road to Emmaus

"But when the chief priests and scribes saw the the wonderful things that He did, and the children crying out in the temple and saying, 'Hosanna to the Son of David!' they were indignant and said to Him.

This message considers Judas Iscariot, not so much as an evil person in his betrayal of the Lord, but as an example of how we are all vulnerable to the negative effects of attacks from the hells. It is important to know that the Lord is far more powerful than the forces of evil ever will be. Judas might appear at first to be a bad apple. But, upon reflection, he might not have been. | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZ
