    In the Third Article of the Apostles’ Creed, we boldly proclaim that we believe in the Holy Spirit. What are we saying when we make this claim? What difference does this belief make in our lives?

    1 Corinthians 12:1-11 “I Believe In The Holy Spirit” INTRODUCTION The Holy Spirit is probably the least known and understood person of the Trinity. We know that God the Father created all things. In our creeds we say that God is all-knowing, all-powerful, and is present everywhere. We know ...read more

    In this sermon I sought to be led of the Spirit to inspire the desire to have wisdom, and then contras hellish, and heavenly wisdom. Our churches need wise counsel, and the world needs to see the difference heavenly wisdom makes.

    WISE or UNWISE: James 3:13-18 {13} Who among you is wise and understanding? Let him show by his good behavior his deeds in the gentleness of wisdom. {14} But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, do not be arrogant and so lie against the truth. (15} This ...read more

    Scripture indicates who different people said Jesus was. As we reflect on the Lord’s supper we will look at those passages and then pose the question who do you say Jesus is?

    God knows what we need, at Christmas and throughout the year. The birth of Jesus caught the Hebrew people by surprise. The gift of the Messiah was different than what they expected, but God knew what they really needed.

    Many different ideas about God. From the atheist who believes there is no God. To the religious pharisee who would believe you’d go to hell if you don’t live a perfect life.

    HOW TO KNOW GOD The fool has said in his heart there is no God. Ps 14:1. Many people today have their own ideas about God. Atheist, no God. Many people think of God as granddaddy, sit up on my lap and everthing will be alright. Religious, everything from God don’t care what we do just as long as ...read more

    This was our Senior High Youth Worship Sunday. The worship and the sermon focussed on how much Christ applies to us all, despite all the things that are different between us... Christ is still our Lord.

    Colossians 1:15-20 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.

    The Bible was written by Jews for Jews thousands of years ago, in ancient languages and cultures that are vastly different from ours today. Making it all the more important to understand as much of those cultures as we can.

    You cannot sensibly divorce "Christ the King" from Christmas - for why else would we remember the birth of a child born in an obscure part of the world 200 years ago unless he was different

    WSG 20-11-2011 With Christmas just around the corner and this being the last Family Service before the New Year, I wanted to ask the question Why is Christmas so special?
