He Ascended into Heaven - Luke 24:50-53, Acts 1:1-11 - April 12, 2026

The Ascension is often overlooked but it is more prominent in Scripture than we might realize. Jesus' Ascension is historical in that it took place at a specific geographic location; there were eyewitnesses; and it was bodily. What does it mean for us? We have an advocate at the right hand of God. Our priorities should shift to things above. We have the Holy Spirit and the gifts of the Spirit, so we are fully equipped. Our Lord reigns!

April 5 2026 - Luke 24:1-12 - Why Seek the Living Among the Dead

We seek life through things like security and comfort; and there is nothing inherently wrong with wanting some measure of these things. But the life we seek is found in Jesus. It is in Jesus that we have been made alive!

Scorned and Despised - Psalm 22:6-18 - March 29, 2026

The Great "I Am" willingly humiliated himself on the cross such that he said, "I am a Worm" scorned and despised by the people!" He was delivered through the trial of the cross, so that we might be delivered for all eternity!

Where Is Our Hope - Isaiah 53 John 4 - March 22 2026

Pastor Hunsicker reminds us that: 1. God offers each of us the gift of abundant and eternal life. 2. Our response to that offer is the most important decision we will ever make. 3. A Spirit-filled life is the hope we have when we respond in faith.

The Emotional Agony of Jesus - Psalm 22:1-6 - March 15, 2026

We find in the cross Jesus' Heart and Our Hope Jesus may have recited or meditated or possibly even sang Psalm 22 from the cross. We find in the opening verses the emotional and spiritual anguish which Jesus endured for our sake. Jesus reminds us that we too have hope that God is near even in our most anxious moments.  In Jesus we have hope of salvation and hope in trials.
