The Gospel of John (10): Jesus Christ Formed in the Heart
Jesus Christ came to fill empty hearts with love for God. Rev. Paul van Engelenhoven uses John 4:35-42 to illustrate heart evangelism, sowing and reaping the heart, and the two roads to the heart. If we receive Jesus into our hearts, we can join the Samaritans in exclaiming, “We know that this is…
The Gospel of John (9): The Heart of Christ
Rev. Paul van Engelenhoven shares this glimpse into the heart of Christ. In John 4:27-38 Jesus explained, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish his work.” As we live lives imitating Christ, we remember “We are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.”
The Gospel of John (8.1): The Seventh Husband
The love of Jesus Christ for sinners is revealed in the story of the Samaritan woman at the well. Rev.

The Gospel of John (5): For God so Loved the World
Why does God provide a means of salvation for sinners? Rev. Paul van Engelenhoven uses John 3:16 to display the love of God for his children: the essence, the display, and the invitation. Be amazed at God’s free, righteous, and eternal love for those who believe. “For God so loved the world that he…
Healing by Long Distance
For this Sanctity of Life Sunday, Rev. Tom VandenHeuvel focuses on the Lord and Giver of Life as he preaches from John 4:43-54 on one of Jesus’ miracles. In this miracle recorded in the Gospel of John, Jesus responds to a father’s love for his sick child and the father’s faith, by healing the child remotely.
“The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is…
