Forgive Us Our Debts As...
Contributed on Oct 27, 2024
This Morning we look at Jesus teaching about the importance of forgiving others as we are forgiven.
Forgiveness is easy to talk and read about in the Bible. It’s when we have to put it into practice that it can be tough! Forgiveness is wonderful idea, until there’s something to forgive. At a New Year’s party in 1982, Kevin Tunell got very drunk; his friends urged him not to drive but he insisted. ...read more

Candyman Or Doctor? Who Are You Looking For?
Contributed on Oct 20, 2024
Jesus travels to Galilee and is greeted enthusiastically. However the Greeting is only with the hope of a great show, as those who he comes to preach to only want to see signs and wonders, and not the Savior from Sin.
The Doctor or the Candyman I was listening to someone talk about elections and democracy, and he dug up a great quote from the past. And by the past, I mean like 2500 years ago. Ancient Athens was the first democracy we know of, and Socrates, the smartest man of his time, hated the idea. This was ...read more

Putting Off The Old Man
Contributed on Oct 5, 2024
We look at our lesson from Ephesians 4 in light of Jesus healing the paralytic. The first half of Ephesians shows how we have our sins forgiven, then Paul teaches us how to walk as a Christian. When our sins are forgiven, we can walk.

Both Saint And A Sinner
Contributed on Sep 30, 2024
In the beginning of Paul's First Epistle to the Corinthians, Paul refers to these quarrelsome and divisive members of the Church of Corinth as "Saints." Can I be both Just and a Sinner, at the same time?
Thank you to Tullian Tchividjian, a Lutheran pastor from whom much of the message theme is borrowed. There’s something wonderful our Epistle lesson today that can be overlooked, in that Paul calls the Christians living in Corinth “saints.” In fact, “Saint” is a term he uses to describe all of us ...read more

How Many Roads Can A Man Walk Up?
Contributed on Sep 22, 2024
Hinduism, Sikh, Islam and Christianity. Are these all just different ways to get to God? How do we get to God? This morning, we look at what God's Word has to say on the topic, and what Jesus means when He says, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Light.
. I rarely go off our lessons and get distracted by Current Events when it comes to my preaching. However, something happened this week which I thought really gives us the opportunity to discuss something very basic but essential about our Christian faith. And let me say, I welcome your discussion ...read more
