     | 2,051 views

    A church must seek change in order that it continue to be relevant John Stott promotes this while holding on the 4 essential marks

    ***NOTE*** I have to confess that at a late hour the night before preaching this sermon the ’goat’ ate my sermon and 11 months of sermons in a folder on my computer. I had to re-write it late that night. I was desperate so I used more of John Stott’s words than was in my original script. I am ...read more

We cannot claim to have ...read more

     | 4,369 views

    How does our Christian journey match up to St. Paul's? Comparisons between how we prepare for a automobile journey and lif'e's joureney. Jesus is superior to any recovery or rescue service on offer!

    An Offer you Can’t Refuse?

However I am delighted to be able ...read more
