    Title: A VOICE, A VISION, and A VISIT Acts 11:1-18 and John 13:31-35 Peter was staying at the home of Simon the Tanner. This wasn’t a place that a Jew should have been staying.

    Who was I that I could withstand God?

    PETER’S EXPLANATION. Acts 11:1-18. The turning point in Luke’s Gospel was when Jesus ‘steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem’ (Luke 9:51).

    At a pivotal moment, Peter discovered God loved those outside his inner circle. Who are we including or excluding?

    Acts 11:1-18 The Lord God Made Them All – How many Christians does it take to change a light bulb? It depends upon which denomination you belong to. If you are Methodist, you are welcome no matter what the status of your bulb. You can be bright, dim, or completely burned out. You can be a light ...read more

    This sermon on breaking down draws its primary illustration from Dr. Seuss's story "The Sneetches". This story was read to the children and congregation during the Children's Sermon immediately prior to the sermon.

    All Means All Acts 11:1-18 Tribalism is defined as the state or fact of being organized in a tribe or tribes and the resulting behaviors and attitudes that stem from loyalty to this tribe. On the surface, that doesn’t sound too bad. Human beings naturally migrate into groups of like-minded ...read more

    8th Sermon in our Action in Acts series, we look at how God pushes us out of our natural divisions and understandings, and when we are willing to follow him there, he can do huge things through us.

    Action – God crossing the line (Show a coloring page) Who recognizes this? It’s a coloring page, which most of us can remember from when we were children or from when we had children... And for most of our lives, we have learned that this is what we are to do with it (show a well ...read more

    The Holy Spirit is constantly working in our lives. We are always a bridge in someone’s life. Our obedience to God is a big thing. It is always worth it!

    Last week we learn about overcoming prejudice. • God has no favourites. Salvation is for all men. • Israelites were chosen as a forerunner. God’s purpose was to save them and through them, the whole world. • The Jews were not intended to be the END of God’s plan, but the MEANS. • Because they ...read more

    We can see in the writing of the story of Cornelius and Jesus's words about the sheepfold very helpful examples of the literal and spiritual senses of Scripture.

    Monday of 4th Week of Easter Verbum Domini The richness of today’s Scripture readings should suggest to us a couple of responses. First, we need several hours of study of the text and its meanings. Second, we should, in worshipful awe, spend a few more hours before the Blessed Sacrament ...read more

    Peter’s response to these religious rule-keepers is a model for us as we face criticism or complaints. We’ll see that Peter’s answer is more pastoral than argumentative. I see seven correctives to help us handle criticism.

    This week I shared something positive on Facebook and got pulverized. The criticism came quickly and repeatedly. Normally I’m more careful about posting about controversial matters so I wasn’t prepared for all the venomous vitriol and overwhelming opposition. One person simply replied, “Oh ...read more

    A sermon on the power of the Holy Spirit.

    Life can get really busy, can’t it? I think that with every passing year, the pace of life increases, and we have quickly found ourselves in a culture where being busy is normal.

    Monday of 4th week of Easter In Palestine, sheep have been for dozens of generations the basis of animal husbandry. Sheep produce milk and wool–they are not used for meat.

    Have you ever wondered why God promised to reward us for the good deeds we do in this life?

    The first thought that occurs is that He loves us, and wants to reward our good deeds as a father would reward his child for a good report card. Romans 8:17b says, “...and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together." This is one ...read more

    This sermon of Peter in Acts 11 is the mark of victory for grace of the Lord Jesus. The Pentecost experience happened three times. It happened in Act chapter 2 with the Jews. It happened in Acts chapter 8 with the Samaritans. Now in Acts Chapter 10 with the Gentiles.

    Context of Peters message Acts 10 explains the events of what makes up Peter’s Acts 11 message. The news about Cornelius travelled fast and in no time the leaders in Jerusalem wanted an explanation from Peter what was happening in Caesarea. Peter himself knew he was breaking Hebrew traditions by ...read more
