- Apr 23, 2023Easter Sunday
Apr 23, 2023Easter SundayBy: Donny GoffSeries: Past SermonsEarly on the first Easter Sunday, Jesus appeared to Mary Magdalene and then later to the women who were returning to the tomb. And soon after that He showed Himself to ten of His disciples in the Upper Room, and then to Peter all by Himself. But the fifth appearance was perhaps the most astonishing of all. And it's the one I want to tell you about today. On that first Easter afternoon, as the sky darkened toward dusk, Jesus appeared to two men who were traveling from Jerusalem to Emmaus, and this is were we are today. Join us for Easter Sunday.#stjoecoc #comeandsee #Foundation2023 #anunwaveringfaith
- Apr 23, 2023The ‘Gemstone’ of Baptism
Apr 23, 2023The ‘Gemstone’ of BaptismBy: Donny GoffSeries: Past SermonsWe are continuing our yearly theme of Foundation. The idea is that we will build our faith on the only true foundation, Jesus. And then we will have an unwavering faith. The theme verse for the year is 1 Peter 2:4-8. So far this year we have looked through the Old Testament and saw that Jesus was talked about, prophesized about. We looked at how Jesus came into the history of mankind at the Christmas event. We have just gone through Easter and have in a way jumped towards the end of the earthly ministry of Jesus, and now backing back up to the early part of Jesus’ ministry. Join us as we explore all four gospels and find The ‘Gemstone’ of Baptism. #stjoecoc #comeandsee #Foundation2023 #anunwaveringfaith
- Apr 19, 2023Easter: What if?
Apr 19, 2023Easter: What if?By: Donny GoffSeries: Past SermonsWhat if…. Have you ever played the what if game? What if you won a million dollars? What if you lost your job? What if you got the promotion? What if they left you? What if..? There are lots of what if we can think of. Some are small and insignificant, while others are life changing. 1 Corinthians 15. In this chapter, Paul plays the what if… he talks about what would be true if there was not a resurrection of Christ from the dead. What if He remained in the grave? Join us as we find out. #stjoecoc #comeandsee #Foundation2023 #anunwaveringfaith
- Apr 2, 2023Simeon’s Peace
Apr 2, 2023Simeon’s PeaceBy: Donny GoffSeries: Past Sermons“Now I can die in peace”? People say this after they meet a sports hero, so some celebrity. Some might say this once they fulfilled something on t heir bucket list. But what would truly make you proclaim, “Now I can die in peace”? Peace is one of those topics that people want, but don’t seem to know how to get, and definitely don’t know how to keep. Join us as we hear about Simeon’s Peace and how we can have it too.#stjoecoc #comeandsee #Foundation2023 #anunwaveringfaith
- Mar 26, 2023The Call of Christmas: The Bad Guy
Mar 26, 2023The Call of Christmas: The Bad GuyBy: Donny GoffSeries: Past SermonsThis year we are going through the gospels, to closely examine the life of Jesus. In this sermon series we have looked through the various individuals that were at the birth of Christ, the Christmas event. We started with the parents, with Mary and Joseph. How they were confused and perplexed about this event. And yet God called them and gave them the assurance and encouragement needed. We looked at the shepherds, how God called them. And we to need to be seeking after our Savior daily. Last week we looked at the wise men, the magi. And looked at the true meaning of worship. Today we look at one more character of the Christmas event. King Herod. Every story has its bad ‘guy’ it seems. Join us as we hear the Call To Christmas: The Bad Guy #stjoecoc #comeandsee #Foundation2023 #anunwaveringfaith

Mar 12, 2023The Call of Christmas: The ShepherdsBy: Donny GoffSeries: Past SermonsWe all have our routines. The basic way we go about living our lives on a daily basis. The ordinary day does give us comfort and reliability. Sometimes we want more, we want something different. We want something extraordinary. As we continue our Call to Christmas sermon series, we come to look at the shepherds. Every year at Christmas, people talk about the smelly shepherds. The people God specifically invited to see the Messiah. The people that no one would have ever asked. Let’s look at these shepherds and the Call Of Christmas. #stjoecoc #comeandsee #Foundation2023 #anunwaveringfaith

- Feb 26, 2023Euangelion: The Great I Am – The Gospel of John
Feb 26, 2023Euangelion: The Great I Am – The Gospel of JohnBy: Donny GoffSeries: Past SermonsThe first four books of the New Testament are called the Gospels. Euangelion. What does Euangelion mean? Good News. The first Gospel account is of Matthew. Matthew shows Jesus to be from the tribe of Judah. Matthew shows Jesus as a King, like a Lion. Mark focuses on the suffering aspect of Jesus. How Jesus came to serve, like an Ox. Last week we looked at Luke. Luke shows the humanity of Jesus, that God came down and became one of us. Jesus was fully man. And now we come to the last of the gospel accounts. John. We have looked at Jesus the King. Jesus the Servant, and Jesus fully man. What could John show us?#stjoecoc #comeandsee #Foundation2023 #anunwaveringfaith
- Feb 19, 2023Euangelion: The Son of Man- The Gospel of Luke
Feb 19, 2023Euangelion: The Son of Man- The Gospel of LukeBy: Donny GoffSeries: Past Sermons
In our overview of the Gospels, of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, we have seen that the focus of each of these accounts of Jesus’ life have a slightly different focus. And in God’s infinite wisdom, God has brought these together to help us get a better understanding of who Jesus is. While at the same time showing continuity of the Old and New Testaments. The Four Gospels are four pictures of Christ: the lion, the ox, the man, and the eagle from the cherubim of Ezekiel. The lion is the symbol of Christ the King, Matthew. The ox is the symbol of Christ the servant, Mark. And today we look at Luke. In this euangelion, good news about Jesus, the author Luke focuses on Jesus as the Son of Man. Join us!

- Feb 15, 2023Euangelion: The Suffering Servant- The Gospel of Mark
Feb 15, 2023Euangelion: The Suffering Servant- The Gospel of MarkBy: Donny GoffSeries: Past SermonsToday we are going to look at the book of Mark, the Gospel of Mark. Marks gospel is the earliest written of the four gospels, written in the early 60s AD. Mark was probably written for Christians in Rome where he wrote the Gospel. Mark wants them to know that in an environment where people worship many gods, Jesus is the one true Son of God who can truly help them. How Mark shares the good news is different than the other three gospels. Join us for Euangelion: The Suffering Servant, The Gospel of Mark. #stjoecoc #comeandsee #Foundation2023 #anunwaveringfaith
