Rev. Leonard (M.Div. Fuller Seminary) is the pastor at St Johns on Morgan Hill in Williams township, PA . His messages are timely, scriptural, and focus on issues of faith. While the podcast focuses primarily on sermons that explain scripture verse by verse things likess special music, etc. will be included time to time.
Having a purpose in life is a rare treasure; Jesus says to not store up treasures here on earth. Today Rev. Leonard takes a look at how the bible deals two ways with our search for meaning, and explores the approach of Ecclesiastes 3
{I said in my heart with regard to the children of man that God is testing them that they may see that they themselves are but beasts. For what happens to the children of man and what happens ...
An introduction to a series on the book of 1st Samuel.
In this chapter the story of 1 Samuel hits its low point as the people of Israel is defeated and the ark of the covenant is stolen. This message deals with getting right with God, and the problems we encourage when we pick a God sized fight without getting God sized help.
Pentecost is the day we celebrate the founding of the church, and it's normally looked at from the perspective of missions. In this lesson, Rev. Leonard looks at the equally important perspective of what the coming of the Holy Spirit means for believers.
We look at the story of how Saul is anointed king. Saul seems to have everything going for him on the outside; that just makes him the kind of king the people want... not the kind of king they need.
Israel sins in asking Samuel to appoint a king over them, which Samuel only does reluctantly. Today's lesson is about submitting to the Lord's control even those things we think are good (like a King to protect us). God may have other or better plans for our lives; we won't know if we don't ask or listen.
Saul loses the kingship of Israel; however, the question is why? Rev. Leonard looks to the "heart" of the matter
When Samuel anoints David, God tells Samuel that he does judge by the externals of humanity, but rather looks to the heart
What is it that lets us defeat the giants in our life?
We conclude our look at 1st Samuel by going to the tragic end. What can we learn from Saul's untimely death?
We're beginning a new series of looking in-depth at Jesus' own sermon on what it means to follow him. In this lesson we look at "the Beatitudes" which are 8 easy to remember summaries of his teaching. We normally think of the term "blessed" religiously when we think of "blessed are the poor in spirit," however delving into a study of the language of the Gospel, the word is better rendered &qu...
In this 2nd Episode on the Sermon on the Mt., Jesus explains how his followers from the very get go must be distinct and won't exactly be thanked for it.
Jesus' continues his Sermon on the Mt. by preaching the shocking message that the law still stands. This sermon sets up the contrast between legalism and fulfillment in the Kingdom that Jesus' teaching uses thematically.
Jesus in his sermon on the Mountain makes it very clear that he doesn't tolerate anger in the Kingdom of Heaven. In fact, he wants disciples to do more than just "not" get Angry.
Whens the last time you've thought just what it means to swear something?
In the climax of Jesus' first section of the Sermon of the Mt. Jesus sums up the entire law in the startling command to love our Enemies. This sermon explores just how hard that is!
Jesus list 4 different reactions to the Gospel in this 1st lesson in a series exploring the parables of Jesus.
In Matthew 6:1-4 Jesus tells his disciples to avoid showcasing generosity and virtue to be approved off by men. It's much more important that they live a life concerned with God.
Jesus points out that if even a wicked judge will give just to be left alone, won't God who purses justice and to help do much more when we ask?
