Love God, love people, and change the world. We believe the life and lessons of Jesus aren’t just good advice, but are Good News for us here and now. As a church, we are all about following Jesus and know there’s no end to that journey—we’re more about becoming than arriving. We are committed to becoming a multi-generational, multi-ethnic, multiplying movement of Christ followers, equipping and empowering our kids and students to not only be the church of tomorrow, but the church of today.

Be a Doubting Thomas

The phrase "Doubting Thomas" now part of the English language, as way of describing a person who is unable to believe the truth. Yet, the bible doesn't present the original Thomas in so negative a way. Instead, it invites us to identify with him because he resembles our situation in life. Like him, we find it hard to believe because we haven't seen Jesus face to face. This sermon points us to the lessons Thomas can teach us about dealing with doubts and how we can help others see Jesus for themselves.
Scripture reference: John 20:19-31
Preached by Rev. Stephen Silverthorne on the Second Sunday of Easter, April 28, 2019
Sermon Highlights
- Thomas is an example to us
- He teaches us that Jesus is gentle with the doubting
- He teaches us that Jesus gives us what we need to overcome doubts
- We can get an even better knowledge of Christ than the disciples
- Jesus is present in the church
- By sticking with the church we learn new things about him
- We are challenged to present Jesus faithfully to the world
