1 Timothy #1: An Introduction to 1 Timothy (1 Timothy 1:1-2) Janelle Greene & Rob Woodrum (8/16/26) Download Back in 1979, David Macaulay wrote and illustrated Motel of the Mysteries , an imaginative picture book of an archeological find in the far flung future of 4022. In the ancient country of Usa, archeologist Howard Carson finds the remains of an ancient motel buried beneath many feet of earth…
Matthew #61: The Conclusion of Matthew (Matthew 28:16-20) Janelle Greene (8/2/26) Download Well, after a year and some change, we have come to the final study in the Gospel of Matthew. We will be finishing up chapter 28, reading verses 16-20. This is Matthew’s abbreviated account of Jesus meeting up with his disciples after his resurrection. It’s a brief passage, but there is a lot of stuff to…
Matthew #60: The New Creation (Matthew 28:1-15) Rob Woodrum (7/26/26) I’ve said many times before how much I love the Gospel accounts of the resurrection of Jesus. Critics will often point out all the discrepancies we find in them and declare the whole story as untrustworthy because of them. But it’s precisely because of those discrepancies that I find them so compelling! The narrative carries the…
Matthew #59: The Curse Removed (Matthew 27:32-66) Rob Woodrum (7/19/26) Download It’s amazing to me how much the crucifixion of one Middle Eastern man two millennia in the past has persistently and relentlessly invaded the imagination of humans right up until this present day. We just can’t escape the cross. That cross emanates something we vaguely intuit. There is a key there and we can’t shake…
Matthew #58: The Beauty of the Cross (Matthew 27:1-31) Janelle Greene & Rob Woodrum (7/12/26) This Sunday we’ll be reading Matthew 27:1-31 . It describes the preliminary stages of the cross experience of Christ. We’ve stated before that the cross is the central revelation of God’s character. So, we’ll be focusing on the cross in our teaching, discovering what it reveals and provides for us. It’s a…
Matthew #57: When Our Faith Is Failing (Matthew 26:31-75) Rob Woodrum (7/5/26) This Sunday we’ll be reading Matthew 27:1-31 . It describes the preliminary stages of the cross experience of Christ. We’ve stated before that the cross is the central revelation of God’s character. So, we’ll be focusing on the cross in our teaching, discovering what it reveals and provides for us. It’s a very painful…
Matthew #56: Tasting The Tree Of Life (Matthew 26:17-30) Janelle Greene (6/28/26) When I was in college, one of my professors led an activity that has stayed with me ever since. He said the word “apple” and asked us to write down as many descriptive words as we could. We wrote things like fruit and tree. Then he showed us a picture of an apple, and our list grew with words like red, round, and…

Matthew #54: Identifying With The Insignificant (Matthew 25:31-46) Janelle Greene (6/14/26) Download I once had a job where I wasn’t entirely sure what I was supposed to be doing. Every time my boss walked into the room, I suddenly felt the need to look busy. The problem was that I wasn’t even sure whether what I was doing was close to what was actually expected of me. Maybe you’ve felt that way…
Matthew #53: The Risk of Grace (Matthew 25:14-30) Rob Woodrum (6/7/26) This week we’ll be reading a very familiar parable – what is often called “The Parable of the Talents”, in Matthew 25:14-30. As you read this story, remember that parables aren’t meant to be exact representations of God’s kingdom in all the details. Jesus said it is “like” this sort of thing. The most important element of this…
