Weekend Preview – Pilate’s Problem

November 10, 2016 by Phil Auxier

munkacsy_-_christ_in_front_of_pilate

This coming Sunday, Lord willing, we’ll continue our plodding through the Gospel of John, camping out in John 18:28-19:16.  This section of the Gospel gets at Jesus appearing before Pilate, with he and Pilate have a lot of interaction together.  Specifically, Jesus poses a big problem for Pilate and this gives us insight into how we think of politics today.  I hope you come eager to pursue Christ’s glory as He moves to the cross.  (We’ll also be discussing this in Small Groups…here are some questions.)

Weekend Preview – Jesus Must Suffer

November 2, 2016 by Phil Auxier

shallinot

This coming Sunday, Lord willing, we’ll continue our study of John’s Gospel, focusing in on John 18:1-27.  Jesus asked Peter in the midst of the happenings of this chapter “Shall I not drink the cup that Father has for me?”  And, this chapter is humbling and encouraging as we see Jesus suffer for sinners like us.  He drank the cup of the Father’s wrath dry.  And, specifically, this passage shows Jesus suffer in His betrayal, arrest and trial, as well as being denied by one who promised loyalty.  Plan to join us and see  Jesus.

Weekend Preview – Love & Hate

September 29, 2016 by Phil Auxier

love-hate

This weekend at Crestview, we’ll continue making our way through John’s Gospel, specifically landing in John 15:12-27.  It’s an amazing passage, really.  After all that happens in the Upper Room, you’d wonder what else Jesus has to say or do.  And, in this passage, He draws our attention to love and hate.  Jesus’s followers are to be marked by love.  And, Jesus’s followers will be hated by the world.  But, Help has been sent by Jesus.

So, I hope you come prepared to worship, marveling at the love the Father has for us in sending us His Son who sends the Holy Spirit.  See you Sunday.

Confessing Our Faith – Praise That God Sent His Son

September 20, 2016 by Phil Auxier

For the past few months, on weeks we take the Lord’s Supper together, we’ve been using statements of our faith that unite us as we gather around the Lord’s table together.  This coming Lord’s Day, we’ll be using this confession entitled Praise That God Sent His Son from Coram Deo Church in Omaha, NE:

We praise you, O God,
for sending your Son, Jesus,
to be King of kings.
We rejoice that he has triumphed
over all the powers of this world
and governs the nations in justice and righteousness.
We celebrate the victory He won
by his life, death, resurrection, and ascension.
By your Spirit, claim our complete loyalty;
Establish Christ’s rule in every land and in every heart.
Accept our worship as we offer our lives
in the service of His kingdom.
He is Lord forever and ever. Amen.

I hope to see you all tomorrow, Sunday 9/18/16 at Crestview.  We’ll continue our study of the Gospel of John, putting our focus on John 14:15-31.  Last time we were in John, Jesus urged His closest followers to have hearts from from trouble.  Now, in this passage, He’ll give them assurances from heaven so that they will not fear.  So, I hope you’ll join us to get help for all the unsettledness we face in life.  Our worship service (and livestream) begin at 10:15AM.

From One Degree To Another?

Yeah, that's right. My one, consuming passion is Jesus Christ, my Lord. I'm totally gripped by one message: the Gospel - the good news that God came after me when I was far from Him. So, the life I live, I live by faith in Him: He loved me and gave Himself for me.

From One Degree To Another is the change that He's accomplishing in me by grace. Growing downward in humility, upward into Him, outward toward others, and inward with renewal characterize my existence.

This site is where I flesh all of these types of things out, including my life as a slave to Jesus, husband, father, coffee-enjoyer, and pastor. I hope it encourages you.
