A Word about Repentance

When you study the words “repent” and “repentance” in the New Testament, you quickly find that there isn’t just one simple definition. The words “repent,” “repented,” and “repentance” show up 56 times...

Using Hermeneutics to help us interpret Psalm 82

Hermeneutics is a theological word describing the method one uses to interpret Scripture. Two people read the same verse and come to different conclusions—why? Their hermeneutic may not be the same. We are going to see this today in Psalm 82. We are looking at Psalm...

Are you a Disciple Maker?

Do you see yourself as a disciple of Christ? Would you describe yourself as a disciple or follower of Christ? Do you think being a disciple is different from being a Christian? We need to create a disciple making culture in Berean. Where we each see ourselves as a...

Jesus, the Good Shepherd

I want to use this note to help make today’s sermon more edifying.  In John 10, Jesus says, “I am the good shepherd.” But what does that mean? What is the significance? He has referenced bread, light, door, and now—Shepherd! If we did not have Ezekiel 34, we...

Abundant Life

This morning, we are going to dig into John 10:10, The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. We must get into the Greek to get the most accurate understanding of what Jesus is communicating with this...
