Chris Wall • John 19:25-27 We witness a poignant scene at the foot of the cross where Jesus is being crucified. Standing near the cross were Jesus; mother, Mary, and her sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, along with Mary Magdalene. In His final moments, Jesus looks down at His mother and, filled with compassion, entrusts her care to John. On the cross, we know of seven statements Jesus made which were all critically important. In the midst of Christ’s suffering, He faithfully keeps the 5th commandment as He makes sure to honor His mother. This is truth we must not overlook; a lesson we must learn; and an example we must follow.

Chris Wall • John 5:1-18 God is powerfully working…RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW, giving us the RIGHT HOPE, because He is the RIGHT SOURCE, with the RIGHT PLAN providing the RIGHT AMOUNT shifting us to the RIGHT FOCUS while helping us to live the RIGHT kind of LIFE.

Chris Wall • John 4:46-54 God is powerfully working…RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW, giving us the RIGHT HOPE, because He is the RIGHT SOURCE, with the RIGHT PLAN providing the RIGHT AMOUNT shifting us to the RIGHT FOCUS while helping us to live the RIGHT kind of LIFE. God has called us to trust Him and take His word seriously. When He speaks, do we immediately believe or do we doubt Him? This leader exhibits the kind of faith that we must strive to build even in the most extreme circumstances. A sick child leaves one feeling helpless, hopeless and broken. Here, this leader learns the promises of Christ are trustworthy. As a result, his entire family comes to believe in Jesus. Do you believe in Jesus?

Chald Balthrop • John 4:21:39 What are you looking for? There’s a simple truth that’s easy to forget. Generally, people find what they’re looking for. Where you expect to find kindness, kindness is often found. Where you look for disappointment, disappointment is easy to see. When you don’t like what you see, look a little deeper. Shift your focus. God is working powerfully right here, right now, giving us the right hope because He is the right source with the right plan, providing the right amount to move us to the right focus to help us live the right kind of life. The answers you seek are right in front of you. Right now. As you learn to live all of life, all for Jesus.

Chris Wall • John 4:1-6 The woman at the well is a fascinating reminder for us to see the world like Jesus. The disciples are busy making preparation for ministry all the while missing the real ministry right in front of them. Jesus engages this woman who was broken, lost, but still deeply loved by God. In this passage, you see the urgency of Christ to bring salvation to the entire world. We are called to notice the harvest right in front of us. Jesus came bringing salvation to the world. His plan to deliver that message is by the Holy Spirit through witnesses. We are the witnesses called to notice people and share the message of salvation to others.
